Dilip Shanghvi

Pharmaceuticals, Gujarat and Mumbai. Shanghvi founded Sun Pharma in 1983 with a small loan and five psychiatric medicines made in Vapi, deliberately choosing chronic-therapy niches that bigger firms neglected. He then grew by buying struggling companies and turning them round, culminating in the purchase of Ranbaxy in 2015. Sun became India's largest drug maker without belonging to an old business house.
