Atul Ltd |
Annual Report 2009-10
Serving the Society
The dream of the founder in
establishing Atul was to create
wealth in rural India, generate
employment and make India
self reliant. In essence, the idea
was actually to serve the society
through business.
Ever since its first plants were commissioned, Atul has
engaged itself in serving the society particularly in and
around Valsad in the areas of education, health and
culture and invariably worked for the poor during floods,
famines and earthquakes.
Shiva and Jain temples in
Atul
, Kalyani School, Atul
Vidyalaya, Atul medical centre, 48 acres land to Vallabh
Ashram for building two of the finest boarding schools,
are some of the contributions of Atul in the past.
During the year, Atul took over the management of a
boarding school for tribal students, now called Atul
Vidyamandir. The school houses 202 students, and the
objective of the school is to integrate students from
backward regions with the rest of the society.
In addition, Atul through Atul Rural Development
Foundation undertook several initiatives during the year,
and the Management has now commenced the review
of these initiatives once every month.
