REWRITING A 100-YEAR LEGACY (PART-III)

What happens when a 106-year-old family legacy enters the
public markets? What happens when centuries-old craftsmanship
meets modern corporate governance? What happens when tradition
chooses scale without losing its soul? This is the remarkable
story of how a heritage deeply rooted in India’s Kundan, Meena,
Polki, and Jadau art transformed itself into a future-ready institution
and created history through the world’s first IPO in this artistic
category.
More than a business story, this book is a story of responsibility, vision, faith, and preservation.
Through personal reflections and real-life experiences, Dr. Abhishek Gilara shares how a mission
started generations ago evolved from safeguarding Indian craftsmanship to building a global
movement dedicated to preserving art, empowering artisans, strengthening culture, and creating
institutions that can endure for centuries. From the spiritual teachings of his forefathers to the
ringing of the bell at the Bombay Stock Exchange, this book captures the journey of a family that
believed business should be a vehicle for service and growth should become a tool for preservation.
A powerful blend of heritage, leadership, entrepreneurship, spirituality, and nation-building,
this book offers an inspiring blueprint for anyone who believes that tradition and innovation can
grow together. Because some IPOs raise capital. This one was created to raise the future of an
entire art form.
