Anant Singhania is a fifth generation industrialist and the CEO of JK Enterprises, a group entity of the 138-year old illustrious JK Organisation, owned and operated by the Singhania family that is present across several business verticals including paper, cement, garments, defence, engineering, pharma, real estate and finance.
His entrepreneurial journey has been an enriching one that allowed him to grow both personally and professionally. “I have learnt a lot from my gurus, teachers, seniors, elders, and peers. The visionary, industrialist and spiritual Singhania family has taught me how to be progressive and ahead of the times,” he affirms. JK Organisation is credited with being the first in India to manufacture Hydrosulphite of soda, TVs and steel belted radials. Today, some of the businesses in the organisation are the largest players in the world. “None of this would have been possible without the inward focus of our core business values,” he adds.
In 1998, the industrialist married his high school sweetheart Roma who has stood by him through thick and thin. “She is my pillar of strength. I am blessed to have her in my life,” he quips. The couple has two beautiful children—21-year-old son Aadya is studying in the US and 15-year-old daughter Ananddi will soon pass out from school.
