Is the Battery Underpowered for Changan Karvaan’s Load?

The Karvaan often carries passengers, AC runs frequently, and the LCD system is on most of the time. I feel the battery can’t handle all this for long, and it ends up dying prematurely.
Is the stock battery powerful enough for regular use, o r should we upgrade to a higher ampere battery?

The stock battery is often underpowered, especially for:

Full passenger load

Running AC, LCD, and USB chargers simultaneously

Recommended Upgrade:

Replace the 35–40Ah OEM with a 50Ah to 60Ah battery

AGM o r Maintenance-Free batteries offer better performance for heavy electrical loads
