Tomorrow Inc. is back with a bang. For
the fourth year in a row, we give you
a low-down on the gravity of family
business across India. Every year our
team gleans insights into new business
family heirs and how they are shaping up
in taking their legacy forward. This year
too we have selected the game changers
from different sectors and families who
have played a major role in shaping the
Indian economy. Their values, vision,
involvement, cohesion and interaction,
governance and leadership principles are
all checked before bringing the
final list to you.
Interestingly, our selection covers not
just those who are playing key roles in
continuing the legacy business, but
also those who have chosen to tread a
different path like Aparna Piramal Raje.
How she dealt with the pressure of joining
a family business is a fascinating read.
The list also showcases scions from
families like Baidyanath who not only take
care of the age-old Ayurveda business but
also venture into the start-up world
in their own way. Turn the pages
for gripping stories on the Indian
family businesses.
