The Sponsors and Supporter of Sasi Foundation Quote on the Shroff family:
Israil Menai (Harvard Law School ‘1954'), Attorney-at-Law A small step followed by sustained effort leading to Supreme Services that is how the seed sown by Late Sardar Muljee Shroff 120 years ago grew into a Bunyan tree branching off in all directions. This man had a vision like Alexander. He also left home for conquering a new world. Instead of a huge army, he was enthused by high aspirations and hope. He visualized, he worked and he won. The year was 1877. Kathiawar was the station he left and Bombay (now Mumbai) the destination he chose. The nucleus set-up was destined to become a flourishing Enterprise at the hub of Princess Docks in Bombay. Thus, you see that our "little" world did not start with the proverbial "big bang". The beginning in our case was modest and mum too; but soon our enterprising ancestors were providing Mercantile activities including Financial Services, Commerce, Trade and Allied Operations along with investment advice on property development opportunities. Moved by social consciousness, our fore fathers realized that the key to the progress and well-being of the people of Sub-Continent lay in modern education and entrepreneurship. As committed as the family is the tradition continuous to preserve in the fourth generation. Encapsulating, the developing world and beyond, we are working hard to find a balance to combine entrepreneurship with social giving and philanthropy. Subsequently, the business was diversified with emphasis on Real Estate Development, Construction, Manufacturing industry, Long-term Investments and Consultancy. It formed into a Corporate Body from Shroff & Shroff Investment Limited to SASI GROUP in the early 70's, a dynamic link in the long chain of family enterprises picked up in terms of length and strength. To-date more than two dozen affiliates in various fields of activities, have so far joined hands to work under the umbrella of Sasi Group of Companies.
The Sasi Group entered under new structure, corporate image and brand in 70's. During their teamwork and leadership, the group diversified in various business activities including real estate development, construction, retailing, publishing, education, healthcare, distribution, stock brokerage, corporate finance, asset management, M & A Activities and Merchant Banking.
