November 05, 2025

HINDUJA GROUP CHAIRMAN Gopichand P Hinduja, the second of the four Hinduja brothers who built one of India’s largest business empires, passed away at the age of 85 at a London hospital on Tuesday.

- GEORGE MATHEW

Fondly known as ‘GP’ in business circles, he took over as the Chairman of the Hinduja Group and Hinduja Automotive, UK after the demise of elder brother Srichand Hinduja in May 2023.

Born in 1940, GP Hinduja joined the family business in Mumbai in 1959. He was one of the architects of the transformation of the group from an Indo-Middle East trading operation into a multi-billion-dollar transnational conglomerate. His younger brother Prakash Hinduja is Chairman of Hinduja Group (Europe) and the youngest brother Ashok Hinduja is the Chairman of Hinduja Group of companies in India.

According to the Sunday Times Rich List, Gopichand Hinduja ‘and family’ is the richest person in the UK with a net worth of £35.3 billion.
