SRK Group marks 61st anniversary with “Parivarotsav 2025”, launch of two solar energy projects

Surat (Gujarat) [India], April 22: Shree Ramkrishna Exports, a global leader in the natural diamond industry, marked its 61st anniversary with the grand celebration of “Parivarotsav 2025”, showcasing its commitment to values, sustainability and people-centric growth.

The event brought together government functionaries, thought leaders, and industry veterans to celebrate SRK’s extraordinary journey. The highlight of the occasion was the inauguration of two solar power projects, a 6 MW plant in Akala village and a 0.814 MW facility in Amod. These projects will supply clean energy to SRK’s state-of-the-art diamond manufacturing units, SRK Empire and SRK House. These projects represent a significant step in the company’s mission to achieve net-zero emissions and reinforce its leadership in energy-efficient and sustainable business practices.

Union Minister for Labour and Employment Mansukh Mandaviya commended SRK’s role in nation-building and environmental responsibility, saying, “In India, service is a cultural value, and the spirit of family sustains our traditions. SRK’s Parivarotsav showcases how collective identity and family values can drive corporate and societal progress.”

He added that India provided vaccines to 150 countries during the COVID-19 pandemic, guided by the principles of “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam”, i.e. the world is one family.

Leading an insightful dialogue on truth, integrity and leadership, eminent journalist and media personality Rajat Sharma said, “Govindbhai Dholakia has shaped individuals and turned them into heroes. His treatment of employees as family is what sets SRK apart.”

Renowned spiritual and motivational speaker Jaya Kishori captivated the audience with her thoughts on devotion, purpose, faith, and meaning in everyday life, and reinforced the emotional and ethical foundation of SRK’s corporate culture.

“Nothing is more your own than your family. The feeling of connectedness is what gives meaning to life and work,” she said.

Speaking at the event, SRK Group Founder and Chairman Govindbhai Dholakia said, “Our growth has been guided by purity in purpose and lifestyle. In our organisation, no one is addicted or exploitative. This disciplined, simple way of working is what drives our continued success.”

The event also included personal testimonies from SRK employees. In a touching gesture, the company offered Rs. 20 lakh in financial assistance to the families of employees who passed away unexpectedly, demonstrating SRK’s commitment to holistic employee welfare.

SRK’s facilities are now recognised as the world’s first net-zero energy certified buildings within the diamond sector. The company has continued to lead not just through technological advancement and craftsmanship, but through a values-driven approach rooted in devotion, ethics, and long-term relationships.

With April marking both SRK’s founding month and the birthstone month of diamonds, Parivarotsav 2025 served as a fitting tribute to the company’s legacy.
