Gabriel India is a joint venture with Maremont Corporation (now Gabriel Ride Control Products of Arvin Meritor Inc., USA)
For ride control products
Mr. Deep C. Anand established Gabriel India, his first business venture, for the manufacture of shock absorbers. The flagship company of the ANAND Group, Gabriel India was established in collaboration with Maremont Corporation (now Gabriel Ride Control Products of Arvin Meritor Inc., USA) at Mulund, Mumbai.
The confidence, negotiating skills, vision and adroitness of a young Mr. Anand won the confidence of the collaborators, who allowed management control to be vested with ANAND. This aspect became the basis for the management style of the ANAND Group in the years to come.
During the 1960s, Mr. Anand’s success story came out in a fortnightly publication called Industrial Times, which described him as ‘the youngest Managing Director in an Indo-American joint venture company to be promoted at that time’.
