About Me

T.S. Kalyanaraman is the managing director of Kalyan Jewellers, a gold jewelry chain with over 368 stores in India, 36 in the Middle East, and two in the U.S. The business has its origins in a century-old textile store established in south India by his grandfather, who hailed from a family of Hindu priests. Kalyanaraman worked in the family's textile trade from age 12 until 1993 when he started the jewelry chain. Warburg Pincus invested in Kalyan Jewellers in 2014 and exited fully in 2024. The company got listed in 2021. His sons Rajesh and Ramesh are executive directors on the company's board.
