The J. K. Organisation is an Indian industrial conglomerate, with headquarters in Delhi, Kanpur and Mumbai. It is run by the Singhania family, which rose to prominence in Kanpur, India, under Lala Kamlapat Singhania. The name JK is derived from the initials of Kamlapat and his father Seth Juggilal (1857–1922), who belonged to the family associated with the Marwari firm Sevaram Ramrikhdas of Mirzapur.[1] The JK group was founded in 1918.[2]
Founding date?
[edit]Infobox gives uncited 1888; text says 1918 w/ a citation, but that cite not available through a link and no mention in article text, so hard to know what this date means. Company web site says company has been around "over 125 years" which lends credence to 1888 founding, but no mention of actual date on their site. Doprendek (talk) 13:07, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
