Torrent Pharma

Torrent Group

The Torrent Group, founded by Late Mr. U.N. Mehta in 1959 and currently lead by Mr. Sudhir Mehta and Mr. Samir Mehta, is a driving force dedicated to transforming life.

It was four decades ago that Mr. U.N. Mehta embarked on a journey called Torrent for a simple cause and a unique sense of purpose - ‘Happiness for All’. A medical representative with an exemplary vision, he ventured out on his own by making niche marketing as his core competency. And the rest, as they say, is history.

Torrent lives up to the literal meaning- ‘Rushing Stream’, especially in the way it conceives products and services, which transform life. Over the years, the Torrent Group has remained focused on Healthcare and Power - two crucial sectors without which modern life is unimaginable.

The Torrent Group today is not just spreading care, hope and happiness across the world, it is also empowering the people and lighting up their lives. Torrent Group has also forayed into City Gas Distribution business to meet another critical need – Green Fuel – in different parts of India.

The Group’s governance philosophy has always emphasized people and society over everything else, more particularly in times of distress and stands committed to doing all that it can during the time of national crisis. Torrent Group supported about to Rs. 100 crores by strengthening the Government’s efforts to fight the COVID-19 pandemic and its fallout on poorer sections of our society. This contribution was made to the PM-CARES Fund and for various initiatives such as providing essential medicines to various Govt. hospitals free of cost, contributions to State Government relief funds, contributions to NGOs doing grassroots work to address the issues arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, provision of PPEs to healthcare workers and our own direct efforts to contain the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the vulnerable sections of society.

Be it finding a cure for fatal diseases or ambitious power generation projects; or setting new standards in transmission and distribution; breakthrough pharma discoveries or 24X7 customer care initiatives - Torrent has a strong infrastructure in place to ensure that we are always at the centre of the movement towards a better life.

U N Mehta – Founder

Mr. Uttambhai Nathalal Mehta. Words alone will not suffice to describe the Founder- Chairman of the Torrent Group, who was a great businessman, a philanthropist and above all, a noble human being. For this moving spirit behind the ~ Rs 45,000 Crore Torrent Group, the immense contribution to the corporate landscape of Gujarat was a culmination of years of grit, perseverance and hard work.

With his Gandhian approach to business management, he was a rare potent mix of empathy and benevolence that blurs the horizon between business and community service.

The journey of Mr. U. N. Mehta, from being a medical representative with Sandoz, back in the 1940s, to laying the foundation of a diversified conglomerate, is a long yet rewarding one.
