ROOTS AND EARLY INSPIRATION

Growing up in a village where power cuts and electrical hazards during rainy seasons were common, young Amrish developed an innate curiosity for electrical systems.

Mr. Garg’s academic journey was marked by his emphasis on acquiring in-depth technical knowledge. He consistently excelled, ranking among the top 10 students in his batch. During this time, he drew inspiration from Kimat Rai Gupta, the visionary founder of Havells, nurturing a dream to contribute to the electrical industry.
