There are only a handful of individuals in Zambia who are known for their honest contribution towards the underprivileged sections of the society. One of them is Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani. He has been a resident of Zambia for many decades and has successfully established his business empire. Unlike majority of the business magnates, Dr. Mahtani has always stood for honest and transparent business activities and has always kept integrity at the forefront of his businesses. Some of his companies that have stood the test of time and have emerged as winner, both in terms of financial benefits and business integrity are Mahtani Group of Companies ad Finsbury Investments. While most of his colleagues, well-wishers and industry peers are aware of his business acumen, his charitable and social contributions are mostly hidden from the outer world. Dr. Mahtani has been an avid contributor towards NGOs (non-governmental organisations) and other non-for-profit organisations that help in uplifting various underprivileged sections.
Dr. Rajan Mahtani has been an active member of the annual African Summit and he was seen participating in the 2017 African Forum Meet too. However, many people don’t know that he also funded for majority of the summit procedures, which consequently resulted in the huge success of the platform. It is an international platform wherein important individuals from various domains such as economics, financial, social, political, technical etc come together and place their ideas and strategies for development. The citizens actually came to know about the contribution made by Dr. Mahtani after a press release thanking him for the charitable contribution and mentioning how he was an important funding member that resulted in the success of the meet.
Dr. Mahtani has always been a people-person and in spite of amassing wealth with his business acumen and right investments, he has always been a step ahead in giving away his fortune for the benefit of the larger parts of the society.
