Naman Agarwal of Vadodara

A family, a city and a material: three generations in Indian polymers.

In Vadodara's business community, the name Naman Agarwal is tied to a longer story. Naman Manmohan Agarwal is the third generation of a family that has worked in plastics since 1980, when Shri Balchand Saraogi brought water tank extrusion technology from Germany to India and was honoured with the Rashtrapati Award.
