Pune-based Kirloskar group celebrates 130 years of innovation
When one meets Sanjay Kirloskar, 61, the great-grandson of the legendary industrialist Laxmanrao Kirloskar, the passion that Sanjay has for pumps, and the company he leads, is unmistakable.
Chairman and managing director (CMD) of the 130-year-old, Pune-based Kirloskar Brothers Ltd (KBL), Sanjay has very thoughtfully chalked out the things he wants to do to mark the centenary of incorporation of this great Indian multinational.
“We have specially invited Ratan Tata to re-release our Code of Ethics on Sunday,” said the soft-spoken Sanjay in an interview. The flagship of the $2.1 billion Kirloskar Group is already among the most admired engineering firms within and outside India and wants to conquer greater heights without compromising on ethics and values. Such is the commitment to ethics, that every year, employees have to score cent per cent marks in an internal ethics test to qualify for increments and promotions.
On Sunday, KBL’s latest version of ‘Code of Ethics’ will be released ceremoniously by Ratan Tata
