Godrej Astra

Established in 1897, the Godrej Group has its roots in India’s Independence and Swadeshi movement. Our founder, Ardeshir Godrej, a lawyer-turned-serial entrepreneur failed with a few ventures before he struck gold with a locks business. Today, we enjoy the patronage of 1.1 billion consumers globally across consumer goods, real estate, appliances, agriculture and many other businesses. In fact, our geographical footprint extends beyond Earth, with our engines now powering many of India’s space missions.
With a revenue of over USD 6 billion, we are growing fast, and have exciting, ambitious aspirations.
But for us, it is most important that besides our strong financial performance and innovative, much-loved products, we remain a good company. Approximately 23 per cent of the promoter holding in the Godrej Group is held in trusts that invest in the environment, health and education. We are also bringing together our passion and purpose to make a difference through our Good & Green strategy of ‘shared value’ to create a more inclusive and greener India.
At the heart of all of this is our people. We take much pride in fostering an inspiring workplace, with an agile and high- performance culture. We are also deeply committed to recognizing and valuing diversity across our teams.
