"His entrepreneurial mindset helped the Shapoorji Pallonji Group achieve many milestones over the past two decades, including one of India’s first integrated, project-financed power plants, and the development of India’s first biotechnology park. With his vision and eye for detail, he was instrumental in steering the Group from a pure contractor to a ‘value-added’ player, by developing competencies in allied areas such as EPC and ‘Design & Build’," the statement said.
Mistry also envisioned, and oversaw, the evolution of the Group into an end-to-end business group, spanning design & engineering, construction, and asset development. "CPM, as he was fondly known, was a voracious reader, committed to a journey of lifelong learning across multiple disciplines. Despite his success, he always kept a low profile, away from the limelight.
Cyrus Mistry deeply valued righteousness and honesty. He was known for his transparency and integrity in all his business dealings," the statement said.
