2 History Sometime in the 1930s, two young Danish engineers and former schoolmates, Mr. Henning Holck-Larsen and Mr. S.K. Toubro arrived on the shores of India as representatives of FL Smidth & Co. Guided by their belief in the future of the Indian economy and domestic manufacturing needs and capabilities, the duo began a partnership firm, which, over the next few decades, would become one of India s biggest success stories. Merely three years older than independent India, the contribution of L&T Construction to the nation s infrastructure has been significant and noteworthy. Rightly referred to as a Nation Builder, L&T Construction has to its credit landmark buildings, state-of the-art airports, roads, bridges, power projects, transmission lines and oil & gas pipelines. As an Indian MNC, L&T is fast increasing its presence in the global market earning the moniker of Builder of Nations. 2 3
