Rahul Bajaj was also among the first entrepreneurs to offer financial services to that income segment starting with auto loans and then expanding the portfolio to offer other consumer-facing financial services. As a result, he was always in touch with the thoughts and aspirations of India’s middle-income- and lower-middle-income groups.

He had a clear vision of India’s ideal social and economic trajectory, and as an influential member of the ‘Bombay Club’ and later as a Rajya Sabha member, he was always upfront with his trenchant views. He articulated practical, achievable goals that would help take India closer to Great Power status.

This book compiles tributes to an extraordinary individual from a list of luminaries. 0aBusinessmen1 aDas, Tarun [Ed.]1 aPasricha, Kiran [Ed.]  cBK  c7922d7922  001040708GBaIITTPbIITTPcGENd2026-01-16l0o338.7092 DasH (GB0061)pGB0061r2026-01-16 00:00:00w2026-01-16yREF
