RIP Amitabh Parekh
Amitabh Parekh of Parekh Aluminex is no more.
Amitabh was a dynamic visionary who started from scratch and took his company to 1370 Crores in revenues (FY2012)
I was one of the investors fortunate to be part of his entrepreneurial journey and was amply rewarded (like countless others) by fantastic returns from Paral.
The most saddening aspect of his demise was that he died very young.He was born on 8 March 1973 and so he died before he turned 40.
Rest in peace, Amitabh Parekh.
