Gobinda Das.

A Kolkata-born entrepreneur who started with a middle-class background and a big dream — and began building GDM from the ground up, one opportunity at a time.

Gobinda Das — Founder of GDM Group

The story

Start with a dream. Learn everything. Keep building.

Born and brought up in Kolkata, Gobinda Das comes from a middle-class family with a big dream — to build something meaningful, independent and lasting.

His entrepreneurial journey began around 8–10 years ago with GDM Infratech. In the early days, there was no large team behind him and no single role that he could focus on. Gobinda sold products himself, visited customers, managed suppliers, handled marketing and accounts, and learned every part of the business firsthand.

That hands-on beginning shaped the way he continues to build businesses today. For Gobinda, entrepreneurship is not only about starting companies. It is about creating better products, raising the standard of quality and building a sense of premiumness into everything GDM creates.

As GDM evolved, the vision expanded. Rabindra Shopping Mall and Bhumi Regency became major steps in the journey, followed by Golden Genius and Genius Wellness. Each venture entered a different space, but the philosophy remained consistent: build with quality, think long term and create opportunities.

“If it can be done, I believe I can build it.”
