Late Mr. D.K Jain , founder of Luxor group might not be present in this world, but his pens still write the best stories and highlighters still do their best job wherever they are. Luxor, known for its best quality of stationery to all the students, stands strong because of a headstrong and magnificent personality behind it.
He will always stay alive not only in the soul of his pens but also due to his hard working attitude. His determination brought his company from initial Rs. 5000 investment in 1962 to current Rs. 500 crore revenue . He gave a positive outlook to the Indian economy.
History of a Legend
Are you wondering what history has Jain made to have an effect on the life of any individual.
Picture credit: Luxor
He was born on 19th Feb , 1943 in the holy city of Punjab. After completing his graduation he moved to Delhi for business.He struggled with his dad on the roads of the country during partition. Fascinated by the idea of bringing India its own pen company, his dedication and belief paid off and he became the founder of Luxor group.
We lost the legend in March,2014 , where he succumbed to death due to cardiac arrest at the age of 71 in his own residence.
His Inspiration .
He might have had some inspiration from something that now Luxor seems incomplete without him.
Being President of the University of Delhi and popular in newspapers with his photographs all over, his father expected him to do his best in his career by building his own roadmap and handed him Rs.5000 with all hope and trust. Today Luxor stands as a strong pillar to indian economy itself by having a crore of revenues every year.
Still more to come
Two years ago the company produced Luxor Nano clean- a surface cleaner and protector. It was one of his dreams . His daughter Pooja Jain is currently managing the whole business with mother Usha, as the chairperson of the Luxor group.
