At the tender ages of 22 and 12, two brothers from the family set sail for Colombo, Ceylon with a hundred rupees between them. Little was known that this was the start of a legacy with the creation of the company Mody &Co, that soon became the largest importer of sanitary ware from Doulton’s of London in Sri Lanka. Alongside the sanitaryware business, import of the much sought after Burmese teak wood had begun under the name of The Burma Teak Trading Co. Meanwhile, there were ongoing attempts in India by the family to explore the intent of expanding into tin container manufacturing. In no time in 1946, India Tin Industries Limited i.e Tin Factory was born in Bangalore. By this time, in Colombo, the timber business and other businesses had widely grown and the family now happened to own the largest saw mill in the country.
The business in India then decided to diversify into the building materials industry through the subsequent establishment of a large trading company in 1971 namely Devesh Sandeep &Co.,The company changed its name to Buildstar Projects Pvt Limited in 2012, has now emerged as a leading supplier of building materials in India.
