As an entrepreneur, people often ask him what is essential in doing business—His response is similar to what now successful captains of the global industry believe and practiced when they began their business – Humility and hard work.
The soft-spoken Dr Sudipta Narayan Roy, Managing Director and CEO of Powell Laboratories (P) Ltd, is a charmer. When you speak to him, the humbleness will reflect in his words and tone. But do not underestimate this young man from Kolkata, underneath his Humility is the steely resolve to become a successful business leader, while he serves humanity.

Starting business afresh, or rather from scratch, after the untimely demise of his father, Dr Roy strictly follows a principle–To accept mistakes as lessons and move on, especially if you are a leader. The abbreviation of CEO that Dr Roy uses denotes Chief Encouragement Officer, which reflects his spiritual aspect in managing the business operations.

His success in reviving the business at a time when the state of West Bengal was amidst a political turmoil and then growing it to a level today, where the company is in sight of Rs.100 crore turnover soon, is no small achievement. He leads the vision of Powell Group’s fast-growing companies – to be the leader in Health Care sector with the mission – ‘Service to Humanity’. The company is diversifying into Nutraceuticals, Cosmeceuticals, Ayurvedic products and Ayurvedic Textiles from being a Homeopathic medicine manufacturing firm.
