Indian Economy & Market|August 2021
Who could have imagined in year 2000 that a small 30-employee venture would shortly eclipse some of the big names in a sector which was already flooded with several companies? Still, deprived of the first moving advantage Asian Granito India Ltd. (AGIL) has come a long way. At present the company has a strength of over 6,000 people including contract labour. With the head count the Company had also achieved 40 times growth in its production capacity to around 1 lakh square meters per day clocking a net consolidated turnover of ₹1292 crore in 2020-21.

AGIL attracted the attention of global market leaders and big users when it was acknowledged in the Vibrant Gujarat Summit 2015 for its phenomenal growth. Today AGIL is ranked amongst the top ceramic tiles companies in India. The company manufactures and markets a wide range of Tiles, Engineered Marble, Quartz, and Bathware. AGIL, besides contributing to sustainable development by its economic activities, is also equally fulfilling its social responsibilities and actively involved in the field of skill development, education, and women empowerment.

Indian Economy & Market decided to present to its readers the fast-paced happening in a sector which certainly is going to be a major beneficiary of central government’s various path-breaking initiatives when the Covid crisis is over. Presented here is a tete-a-tete with two young, dynamic, and enthusiastic entrepreneurs - Kamlesh Patel and his elder brother Mukesh Patel, the brains behind AGIL.

Gold: An Excellent Diversification

Gold is priced in dollars. Inflation means the dollar is worth less in terms of purchasing power. That means it takes more dollars to buy gold, so the dollar price of gold goes up. What you may lose in the rest of your portfolio in terms of dollar purchasing power is made up in part or all from the profits you make on the higher dollar price of gold. James Rickards says owning gold will protect you from the ravages of inflation. You’ll have your inflation protection in place 24/7 and won’t be caught off-guard.
