ACPL’s success wasn’t built in isolation.
Generational employees like Ajay Bhaisahab,
who joined as a teenager in the 1970s, became
an integral part of the company’s journey.
“I was always looked after,” Ajay recalls-a
sentiment shared by many employees who
benefited from ACPL’s employee welfare
schemes. From offering benefits to their families
to fostering a sense of belonging, ACPL built
not just a workforce but a community. The
company’s open-door policy encouraged
employees to voice their ideas and concerns,
fostering an environment of mutual respect
and collaboration. Long-term service awards
and skill development programs further
strengthened employee loyalty, making ACPL a
preferred employer in the region.
giving Back:
a legacy of Social reSponSiBiliTy
The family’s success was always accompanied by a
sense of duty to society. Guided by their patriarch’s
values, they established a Charitable Trust, channelling
their wealth to uplift communities. Key initiatives included:
• Education for underprivileged children from
economically weaker sections, with scholarships and
free educational resources.
• Promoting sports among local youth by organizing
tournaments and sponsoring equipment.
• Supporting specially-abled children through
dedicated centres offering therapy and vocational
training. The family’s philanthropic efforts also
extended to disaster relief and healthcare,
providing aid to affected communities during natural
calamities. These initiatives underscored their belief
that a business’s success is measured not just in
profits but in the positive change it brings to society.
