What is the history of the Shapoorji Pallonji Group?
The Shapoorji Pallonji Group was founded in 1865 as Littlewood Pallonji, making it one of India's oldest business houses. Its first projects included a pavement at Girgaum Chowpatty and a reservoir on Malabar Hill that supplied water to Mumbai for over a century.
An earlier generation of the family built several landmarks in Mumbai's Fort area, including the Reserve Bank of India, State Bank of India, and Standard Chartered Bank buildings. The group later expanded internationally, with projects including the Al Alam Palace in Oman, Ebene Cyber City in Mauritius, and Jumeirah Lake Towers in Dubai.
In the 1930s the group acquired F.E. Dinshaw and Co., gaining a 12.5% stake in Tata Sons, which rose to 18.37% after a 1996 rights issue. It acquired Forbes & Company in 2001.
