12. Evolution of Essel Group of Companies
 In the year 1926, three brothers, led by the eldest one, Shri Jagannath
Goenka, grandfather of Dr. Subhash Chandra and his brothers, worked
hard to raise a business in Fatehpur.To enhance the business further, the
brothers decided to move to Bhadra, a small place in Ganganagar district,
and then to Okara Dukaan, which is now known as Mint Gumri.
 Not satisfied with the trading options there, in 1926, the brothers moved
to Sadalpur, a small village close to Hisar, to set up a grain market, in a place
called Mandi Adampur.This is where the journey of Essel Group began. An
eventful journey, from the “A” of Adampur to “Z” of ZEE!
 The Essel Group went through not one, but five downturns in this journey..
The Group emerged even stronger with each downturn, and is now a
multibillion dollar business conglomerate, having diverse business presence
across media, entertainment,packaging, infrastructure, education,
technology and much more.
 Today, the Group has its presence in 169 countries across the globe.
