Atul is a story with a strong social purpose. Our founder, Mr Kasturbhai Lalbhai, may have
been an industrialist by reputation, but he was a socialist by character. His contribution
to India, particularly in the fields of economy, education, culture and religion is a living
testimony of his intent of life. We as members of Atul family will endeavour to nurture his
legacy of serving the society.
