India declared the Ganga dolphin, a rare species of dolphins found only in India, as the National Aquatic Animal

of the country. A part of the cetacean family, dolphins have abundant behavioural characteristics which enable

them to adapt to varied environments. At Atul, it is our endeavour to continuously renew ourselves

to broaden our horizon.
