Rahul Bajaj always stood for very high integrity in business: TVS chairman

No point in time did our business rivalry or some of the issues that we had between our companies came in way of him giving me a smile, says Venu Srinivasan

This is very sad news. He was truly the Colossus of the Indian automobile industry and Indian industrialisation. He set up what came to be respected all over the world. Very frank, brutally honest, he had a great sense of humour and mischief. Sometimes, almost like a mischievous child, he was so intelligent and sharp.  At the same time, he was a great leader, leader of people, leader of men and universally commanded respect. He was bold and outspoken. It is a great loss to me, to the automotive industry, but I would say India as well.
