5 Most Expensive Shares You Can Buy in India

1. MRF

Madras Rubber Factory is referred to as MRF for short. It all began in the backyard of Mr. K. M. Mammen Mappillai in Madras, Tamil Nadu, as a modest toy manufacturing facility. This rubber balloon factory with only $14,000 in the capital was still producing balloons as well as contraceptives and toys by the time it was sold in 1949.

This tiny toy factory became a multinational conglomerate with a sole emphasis on the tire industry. In terms of worldwide size, it is the fourteenth biggest tire manufacturer globally. Indian tire manufacturing was completely reliant on foreign imports prior to the mid-1930s, and there was no local market for the product.

Companies began to emerge and expand throughout the 1930s, as the decade came to a close. MRF has not only raised the bar for the tire industry but has also ushered in a number of new technological developments. There are contributions in automotive, paint, sports accessories, military and toy production from this brand's growth as a business.
