About Me
Balkrishan Goenka controls and runs the Welspun Group in Mumbai, with interests in textiles and pipes. Spurning his family's trading business, Goenka borrowed $100,000 from his father, took a bank loan and started Welspun in 1985 to make polyester yarn.

His wife Dipali runs listed home textiles maker Welspun India.
