Heritage & Milestones

The group's heritage traces back to the founding of T. V. Sundram Iyengar & Sons under the leadership of Late Shri T. S. Santhanam — a pioneer of India's non-banking financial services industry.
1936
The journey towards an independent identity began with the acquisition of Madras Auto Service (MAS), marking the group's first step into the automotive sector.
1954
Founding of Sundaram Finance and India Motor Parts & Accessories Ltd. (IMPAL) — cornerstones of the group's financial and distribution businesses.
