MUMBAI, GPN, November 9, 2023: The Golden Touch, the autobiography of renowned businessman and Kalyan Jewellers founder T.S. Kalyanaraman, will be available for purchase throughout India by the end of November. It depicts the remarkable path of the 46-year-old man who launched his empire. Currently available for pre-order on e-commerce platforms, the book is published under the Penguin Business label by Penguin Random House India.
The Golden Touch tells the intimate story of the visionary who came from modest beginnings in Thrissur and built one of the biggest jewelry stores in the nation, a massive Rs 25,000 crore enterprise that employs over 8,000 people. It follows Kalyanaraman’s career as an entrepreneur, starting with the 1912 business legacy of his family and ending with his own experience with Kalyan Jewellers.
