At the end of the conference, Anand Mahindra requested his team to ‘Take the Hill’ to return to their previous all-time high. “So at the end of the conference, I requested the whole team to ‘Take the share price hill – get the share price back to its highest previous point. By our 75th Anniversary, let’s see a return to a share price of 984. We have done it before, and we can do it again,” the industrialist added with an image of a hill.

He lauded the efforts of Anish Shah, MD & CEO, Mahindra Group; Rajesh Jejurikar, Executive Director- Auto and Farm Sectors, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd.; and their colleagues after the company achieved a new high recently. “The deadline of the 75th Anniversary was missed. But by only a year. The new leadership team took up the baton & today our stock closed at the round number of ₹1000-a new high.
