My Take
Sanjeev Gupta strikes me as a study in ambition and its limits. Punjab-born and Trinity-educated, he built GFG Alliance into a sprawling empire across steel, aluminium, and renewable energy, often hailed as the savior of struggling plants and the jobs they carried. What I find genuinely instructive is the swing: the same aggressive acquisition strategy that made him a rescuer later exposed him to severe financing turmoil. His career captures both the romance and the fragility of industrial entrepreneurship in heavy, capital-hungry sectors. I am more interested in watching how that tension resolves than in any tidy verdict about him.
