Sir Shri Ram (also Lala Shri Ram; 27 April 1884 – 11 January 1963) was an Indian industrialist and philanthropist.[1] He was the son of Rai Bahadur Ram Kishen Das Gurwale, the founder of the Delhi Cloth & General Mills, one of the oldest companies in India.
The British Government in India conferred Shri Ram with knighthood in 1941 in recognition of his contributions to the development of Indian society.[2]
