About
To support rural development, education and social welfare in the Gandhian tradition, alongside cultural and heritage initiatives.
The Bajaj Group, one of India's oldest business houses, carries a philanthropic tradition rooted in the legacy of Jamnalal Bajaj, an industrialist and close associate of Mahatma Gandhi. Through the Jamnalal Bajaj Foundation and the group's wider corporate responsibility, it works in rural development, education and social welfare in the Gandhian tradition, and has supported cultural, literary and heritage initiatives, including awards and institutions associated with the values and causes the family has long championed.
The Bajaj philanthropic tradition, shaped by Jamnalal Bajaj's role in the freedom movement and his commitment to Gandhian ideals, grew into a wide programme of development and welfare work. Alongside its core social mission, the group and its foundations have supported cultural and literary causes and honoured achievement through awards, positioning Bajaj among the Indian business houses with a long and values-driven engagement with culture and society.
