Given his initial spate of successes as a realtor, Rahul Shah holds much promise as the next generation of the Mumbai-based Sumer Group. Add to this his client-centric approach and perfect blend of dynamism and knowledge, and it would seem the entrepreneur has brighter times ahead of him.
A KEEN ADVOCATE OF CHANGE, Realtor Rahul Shah feels that creativity and imagination will always serve as essential constituents in the evolution of the Sumer Group. Having taken complete charge of all major projects recently, the scion, who is the current CEO of the company, brings energy, vigour and thoughtfulness to the group, in his quest to change Mumbai’s skyline.
Rahul Shah’s family, which is now based in Mumbai, originally hails from Bhinmal, a town in the Jalore district of Rajasthan. Having grown up in the city, he schooled from the Greenlawns School (at Worli, Mumbai) and then acquired a diploma in management from the prestigious S P Jain Institute of Management and Research. He took charge as CEO of the Sumer Group in 2016 and now oversees all major projects of the group, aspiring both to augment the family business and reshape the city’s skyline.
Founding pillars
Founded by late Sumermalji H Shah in 1965, the Sumer Group was established with a vision to build landmark projects that would redefine homes and urban living.
