Despite the downturn, Rishabh Instruments managed to post a turnover of 60 crore rupees last fiscal.
Youngman Woollen Mills
Young at heart and in their designs, but with a mature history behind them, the family-owned Youngman Woollen Mills of Ludhiana has been a trend-setter in the textile space since the early 50s. Nitesh Jagota a third generation entrepreneur has ensured that his grandfather‘s legacy has been brought forward to inspire the company to even greater heights.
