Mr. Uttambhai Nathalal Mehta was an astute businessman, a philanthropist and above all, a noble human being. For this moving spirit behind the Torrent Group, the immense contribution to the corporate landscape of Gujarat was a culmination of years of grit, perseverance and hard work.
The journey of Mr. U. N. Mehta, from being a medical representative with Sandoz, back in the 1940s, to laying the foundation of a diversified conglomerate, is a long yet rewarding one. Understanding the pulse of the medical fraternity, he identified and realized the ways in which they could be served best.
