Founding members

Jamnalal Bajaj

(1889 – 1942)

More than a hundred years ago, a visionary philanthropist boldly embarked on a groundbreaking endeavour by employing business as a means to benefit society. Shri. Jamnalal Bajaj, the esteemed founder of the Bajaj Group, earned the endearing title of the ‘Merchant Prince’ from Mahatma Gandhi himself. Renowned for their exceptional quality, his enterprises stood apart due to his firm refusal to adopt unethical cost-cutting measures.

Kamalnayan Bajaj

(1915 – 1972)

Following the demise of Shri. Jamnalal in 1942, Shri. Kamalnayan Bajaj assumed the responsibility of overseeing the businesses. He expanded the Bajaj Group into new territories, aligning with the vision of a modern and diverse India. Through the tumultuous partition and postindependence era, he navigated industrial and legal challenges with great skill.

Ramkrishna Bajaj

(1923 – 1994)

In 1972, Shri. Ramkrishna Bajaj, the younger son of the Bajaj family, assumed leadership of the Bajaj Group, complementing his brother's astute business skills. He distinguished himself as a leader with a unique approach to business, establishing an improved ethical business environment materialised through the establishment of two influential organisations that he co-founded. These organisations, namely the Council for Fair Business Practices and the Advertising Standards Council of India, continue to hold significant relevance even today.

Rahul Bajaj

(1938 – 2022)

Shri. Rahul Bajaj, a Padma Bhushan awardee and former Rajya Sabha member, took over in 1994.
