Godrej group has been very successful since the last 100 years. Much of the success of the group can be attributed to the values and vision of Godrej family, which continued as generations passed-by.

During the latter half of the century Godrej adopted strong corporate governance practices and tried to shed its image of a family-run business.

However, looking at the vast scale of its operations, Godrej still has a long way to go to overcome the existing inertia in the organization, due to the family control.

The group has an enormous potential and with lots of opportunities in the India market, it will have to be more dynamic to sustain and grow in the future. THE ROAD AHEAD
