Rise to Success

Viren Doshi's wealth is primarily derived from his stake in Waaree Energies, a leading solar panel manufacturer in India. The company's listing on the Indian bourses in October 2024 at a 70% premium to its IPO price significantly increased his wealth. Doshi serves as a director on the board and is involved in engineering, procurement, and construction aspects of the company.

Key Business Strategies

Waaree Energies has five solar module manufacturing plants in India. The company's focus on solar panel production and its position as India's largest solar panel maker by production capacity has been a key driver of Doshi's success. The company also plans to expand internationally, particularly in the United States.

Philanthropy

At the October annual shareholders' meeting of Waaree Energies, Hitesh Doshi announced that he and his three brothers, including Viren Doshi, would donate a 1 percent stake in the company to their Waaree Foundation. This stake was worth over $100 million at the current stock price. They plan to support causes such as education, health care and community development, and also aim to build schools and hostels across India.
