RN Valves & Faucets aims Rs 500 cr mark by 2028, opens floodgates for South India expansion
MUMBAI: RN Valves & Faucets has turned on the tap to full flow with an ambitious expansion drive that kicks off in south India, setting the stage for national dominance. The company, already a household name in the sanitaryware and fittings space, announced its bold plans in June 2025 to scale operations across the country with its sights firmly set on becoming a Rs 500 crore enterprise by 2028.
The move is more than just a regional push—it’s a full-blown transformation. RN’s revamped internal structure has set the plumbing in motion for a growth blueprint powered by operational upgrades and strong leadership. Executive assistant to the MD Rajeev Jain, who brings over 24 years of experience, including 14 working alongside top brass, is steering the company’s alignment with the 2028 growth vision.
“We are growing, not just in numbers but in depth”, said Jain. “Our entry into south India is the beginning. Next, we move into Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and the far east. This is a company built on trust and transformation”.
Backing this structural overhaul is senior HR manager Nidhi Singh, whose reforms in KRA transparency and employee engagement have played a central role in fortifying RN’s internal machinery. The company’s HR reboot under her watch reflects a sharp pivot toward people-driven growth.
Joining the leadership is Dipgal Singh Gusain, an industry veteran from Dabur, who now heads operations. He is set to oversee moulding, assembly, production planning, and dispatch functions. Gusain’s arrival signals a renewed focus on innovation and seamless interdepartmental collaboration—key to meeting the firm’s pan-India targets.
To anchor its southern thrust, RN Valves & Faucets will host a high-profile dealer meet in Hyderabad this July, underscoring its commitment to building regionally attuned partnerships. With over 4,800 dealers and more than 7,000 SKUs already in play, the company is primed for scale.
From touchless solutions to premium PTMT and CP fittings, the company has earned credibility with precision-led engineering and homegrown excellence. Its long-standing market mantra, ‘RN ka Naam, Quality ka Kaam’, continues to resonate across showrooms and supply chains alike.
As India’s housing and construction boom continues, RN Valves & Faucets is tightening every nut and bolt in preparation—not just to stay afloat, but to lead the current. From South India to the northeast, the company isn’t just expanding—it’s re-plumbing the map.

Emami names Dhruv Aggarwal as chief growth officer
Former Bain partner steps in as FMCG firm sharpens growth playbook
MUMBAI: Emami Limited has appointed Dhruv Aggarwal as its chief growth officer, effective 25 March 2026, following the resignation of Giriraj Bagri.
Aggarwal joins the FMCG major from Bain & Company, where he most recently served as partner. With over two decades of experience across consulting and strategy, he brings a global perspective shaped by work across India, the US, the UK and Germany.
During his tenure at Bain, Aggarwal advised consumer, retail and media companies on large-scale transformations, business turnarounds and growth strategies. He was also closely involved with India’s startup ecosystem, guiding early-stage ventures on scaling and digital expansion, while supporting private equity and venture capital firms on investment decisions.
His earlier stints include a brief role at Barclays Capital and operational experience at Jindal Power, giving him a mix of financial and industry exposure.
Academically, Aggarwal holds an MBA from Indian Institute of Management Bangalore and has also been associated with University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign as a PhD candidate and teaching assistant.
The appointment comes at a time when Emami Limited is looking to sharpen its growth strategy in a competitive consumer market. With a seasoned strategist now at the helm of growth, the company appears set to double down on transformation and expansion in the months ahead.
