From 5,000 rupees to 5 billion dollars, with a German connection! That's the story of Hitesh Chimanlal Doshi.

Back in the 80s, he started his Mumbai trading business with just 5,000 rupees that he borrowed from a relative.

That business kept growing, but the big change happened at a German trade show in 2007. 

One look at solar technology left him spellbound and he decided to enter the renewable energy space.

Fast forward to today - his company Waree Energies had a stellar stock market debut, and his Waree Group is now a renewable energy powerhouse in India.

And with that, Hitesh Chimanlal Doshi is one of the richest persons in India.
