Starting with just ₹65 in hand, school dropout R.G. Chandramogan built one of India's largest dairy businesses, transforming a small ice cream venture into the Hatsun Agro Product Ltd. empire with a market value of around ₹20,000 crore. Born into a modest family in Virudhunagar, Tamil Nadu, Chandramogan entered the food business after leaving school and launched Arun Icecreams in 1970, focusing on quality products and an extensive distribution network.
Over the decades, Hatsun Agro expanded beyond ice cream into milk and value-added dairy products through well-known brands including Arokya Milk, Arun Icecreams, Hatsun Curd, Ibaco and HAP Daily, establishing one of India's largest private dairy networks. The company today procures milk from thousands of dairy farmers, operates an extensive processing and cold-chain infrastructure, and serves millions of consumers across multiple states.
Chandramogan's entrepreneurial journey highlights the rapid evolution of India's organized dairy sector, demonstrating how consistent investments in manufacturing, branding, distribution and value-added dairy products can transform a small enterprise into a leading dairy business with nationwide reach.
