History
Tulsi Tanti was a Gujarati businessman managing a small textile company. Due to the erratic availability of local power and its rising cost, the highest business expenditure after the raw materials was electricity. Tanti ventured into wind energy production as a way to secure the energy needs for his textile company and founded Suzlon Energy. Suzlon adopted a business model wherein clients would be responsible for 25% of the up-front capital investment and Suzlon would arrange the remaining 75% on loan. Initially, Indian banks were hesitant to fund loans for this model, but by 2008, many Indian banks started financing wind power projects for Suzlon's clients.
In 2001, Tanti sold off the textile business and took over as chairman of Suzlon Group. In 2003, Suzlon ventured into international markets with an order from DanMar to supply 24 turbines in southwestern Minnesota, United States and set up an office in Beijing, China. Suzlon Rotor Corporation began producing the blades In a candid conversation, J.P. Chalasani, Group CEO, Suzlon, talks about his power sector journey, through the public and private sectors, in the conventional and renewable energy domains… Tell me something about yourself that those in the industry who know you have no idea about.” That question starts the Power Line interview with industry veteran J.P. Chalasani, group CEO, Suzlon. He pauses to reflect. There’s not a sound in the Belvedere Suite at the newly renovated Oberoi hotel in New Delhi. “Well, everyone knows I love cricket, but something they don’t know about me at all…?” he asks. “Yes, some offbeat pursuit, undisclosed vice, or deep secret.” He pauses a bit longer, then reveals a modest failing. “People think after so long in the industry I must know everything about it, but even after all these years, I don’t understand many parts of the industry because it is very complex. I always tell people that if you move one lever, there are four or five levers that move without your knowledge,” he says. Then a vice, albeit tiny. “I never read fiction. I don’t think I’ve read more than half-a-dozen novels in my life,” he admits. Finally, he turns to the most important thing in his life that those who know him and have worked with him over a career spanning more than three decades probably do not know. “I am very spiritual,” he says. By “spiritual” he does not mean that he follows rituals or visits a temple every day. Nor does he follow a guru. He means that he prays every morning and evening, and turns to God for sustenance, comfort, guidance and strength. “This has been a constant feature of life since my early 30s. My experience has shown me that if you believe in God and put in your best efforts, He will be there to help you. I have been helped on innumerable occasions by this belief. It has helped me manage stress and ride through difficult moments in my life,” he says. The interest in spirituality and personal growth started because he used to be a v
