: A common thread which runs through almost all large Indian business families is that they marry their children at a relatively young age. It is not often that one would find an unmarried girl beyond the age of 22-23 years in a well-known business family. Charu Modi was no exception. The grand daughter of industrialist late Rai Bahadur Gujar Mal Modi and daughter of Godfrey Philips India’s chairman KK Modi was married into another well-known business family of north India.

But why would the only daughter from a large business house in India need a MBA degree to do business? “I did not want to venture into business without education in management. A professional edu- cational qualification like MBA not only helps you to understand how to run a business but also earns you respect of peers and employees and provides self satisfaction,” she says.
