According to the agreement, Adi Godrej and his brother Nadir will retain Godrej Industries, which comprises five listed companies, while their cousins Jamshyd and Smita will acquire Godrej & Boyce and a prime piece of land in Mumbai.
The Godrej family has finalized an agreement to amicably divide the 127-year-old conglomerate, which has interests ranging from soap production and home appliances to real estate. The founding family of the Godrej Group, known for its ventures in locks, soaps, aerospace, and real estate, announced the split in a joint statement.
The statement read, “The realignment in the conglomerate, established back in 1987, has been carried out in a ‘respectful and mindful’ manner to maintain harmony and better align ownership, acknowledging the differing visions of the Godrej family members.”
As per the agreement, Adi Godrej and his brother Nadir will retain Godrej Industries, which includes five listed firms. In contrast, their cousins Jamshyd and Smita will acquire Godrej & Boyce and a prime piece of land in Mumbai.
Godrej & Boyce and its affiliates, now under the ownership of Jamshyd and Smita, have a presence across various industries, including aerospace, aviation, defense, furniture, and IT software. Jamshyd Godrej will serve as the chairperson and managing director of Godrej & Boyce, while Smita’s daughter, Nyrika Holkar, will take on the role of executive director.
On the other hand, Godrej Industries Group, which comprises five listed firms - Godrej Industries, Godrej Consumer Products, Godrej Properties, Godrej Agrovet, and Astec Lifesciences - will be under the control of Nadir, Adi, and their family members. Nadir will serve as the chairperson of the group.
The families believe that this move will enhance strategic direction, focus, and agility, and will expedite the process of creating long-term value for shareholders and all other stakeholders.
