Who we are
Karats History
Mr. T.R. Anand
Would he ever imagine that one of his own would follow his family's footsteps and expand the business to new heights and in new parts across the globe? IT was because of his vision that the family moved from the western part of the country after India became independent in 1947, under the British rule to New Delhi, where he worked closely with his eldest son, D.C, Anand and the other six sons to establish a business all over again in a new part of the country with all the old values of integrity, customer service and dedication to quality. He still remains as a strong pillar in the growth of the family business and a well respect and looked upon name in the Anand family.
Mr. D.C. Anand
The man who took the Anand family business to new heights after moving and expanding his store to a new location in the heart of New Delhi, India which today stands as one of the most prestigious and well respected businesses of India in the jewelry industry.His passion and dedication to the industry and the respect of fellow jewelers in the industry got him elected year after year as the President of the jewelry association of New Delhi for fifteen consecutive years before he retired to spend time with his family and loved ones yet being active and guiding his sons and grandsons to achieve new heights through his experience.
Mr. Shammi Anand
