A Dream Born in Post-Independence India
In 1983, Qimat Rai Gupta saw potential where others saw failure. He took over the struggling Delhi-based company and, within a year, transformed it into a success. Gupta, a visionary in post-independence India, was driven by a mission to create world-class products in his homeland. Under his leadership, this small company evolved into Havells, a name synonymous with trust and innovation. His journey reflects the entrepreneurial spirit and high standards that have made Havells a globally trusted brand.
Innovating for a Brighter Tomorrow
Havells' dedication to innovation stems from a profound understanding of consumer needs. The Consumer Experience and Design (CXD) team gathers insights from real-world interactions to create groundbreaking products. With over 850 team members and four centers of excellence focused on IoT, AI, and Industry 4.0 technologies, Havells is at the forefront of modern manufacturing.
The company's advanced manufacturing plants produce millions of household appliances annually, ensuring high efficiency and quality. This commitment extends to their swift installation services, guaranteeing seamless product integration and optimal performance.
A Legacy of Leadership and Integrity
In 2014, Anil Rai Gupta, the son of Qimat Rai Gupta, took over as chairman. His leadership has been crucial in steering Havells through challenges, including the global financial crisis, and transforming it into a globally recognized brand. Anil's innovative marketing strategies and commitment to quality have elevated Havells, while his focus on empathy and respect has fostered a culture of empowerment within the company.
Reflecting on his father's journey, Anil says, "Sometimes I'm amazed by the sheer grit and perseverance it took for QRG to build a business during those times. It must have been very tough for him." This legacy of resilience and vision continues to drive Havells forward.
