The Grand Bhagwati was created to provide convenient, smart & value for money services, when it was felt there is a need for hassle free one-stop shop for all banqueting needs. There was a dearth of a well-equipped hotel, so 'The Grand Bhagwati' took shape and all the dining areas are column-less making it more spacious, practical & convenient for large gatherings.

At present it operates and manages one Hotel under the name “The Grand Bhagwati” and a chain of Restaurants at various locations in Ahmedabad.

It has one 100% subsidiary named Lov Kush Properties Pvt Ltd, four group Companies namely TGB Foods Pvt Ltd, Bhagwati Caterers Pvt Ltd, Bhagwati Eateries Pvt Ltd and Rising Hotel Ltd (Formerly known as Akash Hotel Ltd)

Having garnered a vast experience in catering to the food & beverage needs of local clients over a period of 10 years 'The Grand Bhagwati' has become a name to reckon, in providing valuable services without compromising on set standards.

The group’s first venture was a genuine “Delhi chat” outlet at Ahmedabad in 1990. The TGB Group diversified into outdoor catering in the mid nineties and met with instant success on account of their mouth watering preparations in Punjabi and Chinese cuisine which became popular with the non-Gujarati clientele of Surat and Ahmedabad. With a view to cope up with the increased business which involved organizing catering at 5 to 6 locations simultaneously both at Ahmedabad and other towns like Baroda, Surat, Bhavnagar, Rajkot etc. and streamlining the operations, Bhagwati established a centralized kitchen (food factory) in 1998 at Changodar, about 15 kms from Ahmedabad city. This revolutionary concept was brought under the banner of Bhagwati Caterers Pvt Ltd which was incorporated on 03/10/1997.

The outdoor catering success led to a pioneering venture in indoor catering. The TGB group opened a hotel at Ahmedabad namely “The Grand Bhagwati”, a three star deluxe hotel located at the Sarkhej Gandhinagar Highway which started its operations from June 2002. While there are 37 rooms, a restaurant and a coffee shop, its core competency and facility is banqueting. It possesses three banquet halls which can hold 5400 persons on two shift basis, all in air-conditioned comfort. It has a large lounge and a captive, easy parking facility to match the size of its banquet facility.
