He hails from the third generation of a family into the textiles business since the last 45 years and is responsible for exports skyrocketing growing ten-fold in the last 5-6 years. One of the companies in the group is the fourth largest producer of polyester yarns in India producing more than 1,10,000 tons per annum from polyester chips.

Meet Jatin Gupta, scion of the Gupta family – Surat, whose group turnover is in excess of Rs 11 billion or US $250 million. Jatin aged 30, studied at St Xaviers School in Surat and completed his under-graduation and post-graduation in business management from University of Hertfordshire, UK, majoring in finance and accounts.

Jatin stays in Mumbai and shuttles regularly between Mumbai – the corporate headquarters and Surat, where the major manufacturing activities of the textile group are concentrated.

When in school, Jatin used to be a sports freak and loved roller skating, playing table tennis, lawn tennis and badminton and still pursues these activities, whenever time permits. He has also won many medals in roller skating and participated at the national level. Though not a voracious reader, he found very interesting, a book - ‘You Can Win’ by management guru, Shiv Khera.
