The handle on my MRF, also from a store in Delhi, is also small and round. But it was easy to build up to oval with tape and padding, plus extra grip and now it is fine and picks up well. The stickers and branded logo on the sides in my opinion are iconic and look really good in person. They've kept them the same for years. It's 'in your face' and also bizarre to be advertising a car tyre company. It could only happen in India...
