Vijaypat Singhania Dies at 87, Family Dispute Revisited
Vijaypat Singhania, former chairman of Raymond Group, passed away in Mumbai on March 28, 2026, at the age of 87.
Following his death, attention has returned to his long-standing dispute with his son Gautam Singhania. In 2015, Vijaypat Singhania had transferred a significant stake in the company to his son, reportedly with expectations related to living arrangements. In later years, he spoke publicly about personal and financial difficulties, including moving out of the family residence and living in a rented apartment.
He is survived by his wife Ashadevi and his children, including Gautam Singhania, Madhupati, and Shephali Ruia. Gautam acknowledged his father’s passing in a brief public message.
The developments have led to renewed public discussion around inheritance planning and the complexities of transferring wealth during one’s lifetime.
