He arrived in India with Rs.1500 after the partition of 1947 and reached Delhi. He did odd jobs to earn money and with that he started raising the banner of MDH after establishing a small shop named after his family business.
For his lifetime work, he was awarded the Padma Bhushan(India's 3rd highest civilian award) by President Ram Nath Kovind in 2019. MDH sells over 62 products and holds 80% market share in North India. In India & Dubai there are total 18 factories of MDH.
