In 2005 he and a colleague were considering a steel venture, such as re-rolling or a blast furnace, when a chance meeting with a friend already in the textile industry turned them towards spinning. Policy changes of the time, such as the abolition of [[wikipedia:Excise\|excise duty]], made the sector attractive. After a meeting in March 2005 they decided to go ahead within the month, and he dates the birth of Mohan Spintex to 7 April 2005.<ref name="tm2017" /> The company was incorporated on 11 May 2005.<ref name="zauba" /><ref name="ceomag" />
