He pioneered an industrial tradition, which has grown from generation to generation making Birlas to-day one of the foremost industrialists in the developing world.

Over the years, Birlas have promoted and established a large number of industrial undertakings manufacturing a diverse range of products and employing a massive trained working force- a testimony to their vision, entrepreneurial drive and management capabilities.
