Bajaj Group has stepped into its 100th year with a renewed focus on healthcare, electric mobility, financial services, and AI-driven transformation, signaling a major shift in its long-term growth strategy.
Established in 1926 by Jamnalal Bajaj, the group has grown from a cotton trading business into one of India’s largest conglomerates with a market capitalization of nearly ₹14 trillion. Over the years, the group has expanded across automobiles, engineering, financial services, electricals, and consumer businesses while continuing to emphasize governance, institutional values, and nation-building.
As part of its next growth phase, the group is making a strong entry into healthcare through Bajaj Integrated Health Systems (BIHS), led by Nirav Bajaj. The company plans to invest between ₹2,000 crore and ₹2,500 crore to build an integrated healthcare ecosystem starting in Pune before expanding to Mumbai and other cities. The platform aims to combine hospitals, diagnostics, insurance, and patient care services within a unified model.
The group is also accelerating its focus on electric mobility and technology-led innovation. Bajaj Auto continues strengthening its EV portfolio, including the expansion of the iconic Chetak electric scooter, while Bajaj Finance and Bajaj Finserv continue driving digital transformation and financial inclusion initiatives.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated the group on completing 100 years and acknowledged its contribution to nation-building through innovation, employment generation, and community development.
The Bajaj family also emphasized the importance of governance, continuity, and structured succession planning as key factors supporting the group’s long-term evolution across generations.
Entering its second century, the Bajaj Group is now positioning itself around sustainability, healthcare, AI, digital transformation, and global business expansion as part of its future growth vision.
