Born to Shri Jai Kishan Gupta and Shrimati Rajkumari Gupta in the year 1936 in Multan, Pakistan, he enjoyed a very healthy childhood, until the partition of India in 1947, when the family had to leave everything behind and migrate to India.

After initial hardships, Shri Jai Kishan Gupta began life afresh in Delhi and started an electrical goods trading company in Delhi. The family was allotted a shop at Kamala Market in Delhi, by the erstwhile Ministry of Rehabilitation, Government of India and Shri Jai Kishan Gupta soon became one of the most successful traders in the market during that time.

Mr SK Gupta began his professional career at a young age of 21, after completing his graduation from Delhi University in the year 1955. He initially worked for the New India Assurance Company and Burmah Shell Company before joining the family business in the year 1958. His entrepreneurial spirit and understanding of market trends helped him tap into profitable business opportunities quite early in his career. Soon after joining the family business, Mr Gupta signed up for a dealership of Kirloskar Motors that provided a major boost to the business. It helped him bag an important tender with the Bhakra Nangal Dam project, one of the most prestigious power projects in the country at that time. The project provided him with a deep understanding of the electric motors industry and helped him grow the business into one of the largest distributor partners for leading multi-national brands like L&T, Siemens, Kirloskar and Cummins.
