Neetish Sarda Father - Ghanshyam Sarda - A Successful Businessman

Mr. Ghanshyam Sarda is the proud father of Neetish Sarda, the youngest entrepreneur of India. Mr. Sarda is a Calcutta-based businessman, who was born in August 1959.

Ghanshyam entered the family business after graduating from St. Xavier's College in Kolkata, ignorant of his potential as a future billionaire. He concentrated all of his efforts on the jute sector, which had formerly been India's largest export earner.

Employees, investors, and everyone else who was involved in the jute business at that time lost their investments. Ghanshyam gathered all his strength and resurrected nine dying jute mills from the rubble of the failing industry and Since then, there has been no turning back. The Sarda Group now controls a 20% portion of India's revived jute sector.

After that Mr. Sarda was unstoppable and purchased a shuttered seafood processing facility in Raichak, West Bengal, in 1994. This had previously been leased by the United States' Union Carbide Corporation and promoted by the West Bengal government with World Bank funding in 1982. This unit has turned a new leaf under the leadership of Ghanshyam Sarda, and is now the largest seafood processor in West Bengal, as well as one of India's top quality-certified factories, with EU registration and HACCP certification from the US Food and Drug Administration.

The Sarda Group of Industries is based in Kolkata and has offices throughout West Bengal. Currently, the company has eight jute mills that generate about 500 tonnes of jute goods each day. The Jute Mill, which was recently established in Alwar, Rajasthan, is expected to cost Rs 100 crore. The Sarda Group was also the first in India to set up professional training facilities for staff of jute mills. Sarda Group presently employs over 50,000 people and is one of West Bengal's largest employers. In addition to business, Mr. Sarda has contributed to the state in a multitude of ways, including events, sports, and public affairs. Sarda's work has also been appreciated by many prominent governmental personalities.

Ghanshyam was also involved in the founding of the Ram Dev Sarda Maha Vidyalaya in the Purnea district of Bihar, as part of his desire to help others. This management college, created by the Sarda Group's Chandrakala Devi Sarda Charitable Trust, is inspired by Late Mr. Shiwlal Sarda's conviction in giving back to nature, society, and the environment what we have taken from it. Each year, the college enrolls around 5000 students. He has also committed to a five-crore investment in a trauma centre in Bikaner. It's a Rs.25.00 crore emergency health care initiative funded by the Rajasthan government and this trauma center will be dedicated to Mr Sarda's deceased parents.

While being a great businessman, Mr. Sarda is a great father too. The way he helped his son in fulfilling his dream and creating a business with all new ideas, was a tremendous job. He has supported his son in the development of a fully serviced office facility that would revolutionize workspace alternatives. Thus Neetish started his journey with the guiding principles of his father and founded Smartworks in 2016, which is now a leading company in coworking spaces. Smartworks believes space is one of the transformational components of business that may help people reach their full potential by allowing them to work smarter and better in a shared area.

Mr.Ghanshyam Sarda is a source of inspiration for millions of people today. He re-

established his position as a fountainhead of enormous knowledge and positive ideas with his speech on survival instinct at the IIEST College Alumni Association's meet.

“Knowledge is not power; knowledge is simply potential power,” he says. When you take decisive action on it, it changes into genuine power. Understanding what to do next is crucial, but knowing how to accomplish it is much more important.”
