The Big Fat family connection

TVS Group of Companies indulge in making Car spare parts which include Original Equipment manufacture as well as replacement parts and is worth several billions. The nestling Padi Township is the home of TVS Companies and the distribution of spare parts is through Sundaram Motors, Madras Auto Service, and their dedicated distributor net-work. . They ran the TVS Bus service in Madurai, and still do transporting of goods through TVS Motors. Their financial arm is Sundaram Finance Co. They also manufacture tyre through TVS Srichakra

The suave and handsome Venu Srinivasan, who is the CMD of Sundaram Clayton Ltd, and the first Indian auto spare parts company to imbibe the Japanese quality systems in India, has been visible as an icon to the entire fraternity of industrialists when he was the President of Confederation of Indian Industry. The TVS group has patronized CII, as all their companies are members and occupy distinguished posts in the CII hierarchy.

Shri Venu Srinivasan is married to Mallika Sivasailam, grand daughter of late Shri S Anantha Krishnan, who is a pioneer having established the Amalgamations Group. Mallika was the Past President of Madras Chamber of Commerce & Industry, and is in command of Rs 6,500 Cr TAFE.

Infosys is the new face of India. Its founding heralded the dawn of Indian software industry. Its scale to fame was as unprecedented as India becoming Cricket World Chamopion in 1983. From a modest beginning, it began to scale new heights. This Company made Bangalore the Silicon Valley of India. Its founder Shri N R Narayana Murthy was a man of the soil and simple in habits and outlook. But he was a giant in his own right. His wife Sudha Murthy was known for her munificence.

What happens when these two giant families come together through their kith and kin? Rohan Murthy, 28 year old son of Shri Naryana Murthy proposed to 26 year old Lakshmi Venu, daughter of Venu Srinivasan. They say marriages are made in heaven but the decision to marry was taken in America. Rohan proposed and Lakshmi nodded. Both Venu and Narayanamurthy became Sambadithis (a Tamil term for in-laws).

Automobile industry tycoon’s worthy scion marries the prince of the software industry. The automobile tycoon and the software czar are bonded together by marriage.

May providence shower his blessings to the would- be couple.
