The success story of Inder Jaisinghani is incredibly motivating. Before rising to the position of industry tycoon, Polycab India's chairman and managing director had to overcome numerous obstacles. After his father died in 1968, Inder Jaisinghani was compelled to stop going to school.

He took over the duties of supporting the family. Not many people are aware that Inder Jaisinghani inherited charge of the tiny electrical store his father had established in Mumbai's Lohar Chawl. With the help of his brothers Girdhari, Ajay, and Ramesh, Inder started growing the little family enterprise. 2014 saw Polycab expand its product line to include items like switches, switchgear, electric fans, and LED lighting.

Inder and his brothers started the Polycab in 1983 out of a 1,000-square-foot, garage-like business where they tested with wiring. While his brothers concentrated on production, Inder oversaw the company's advertising and marketing efforts.

They finally succeeded in starting a manufacturing facility in Halol, Gujarat, after years of struggle. The market value of Polycab India as of October 14, 2023, is Rs 79,700 crore, or Rs. 797.9 billion.
