To begin with, Dhirubhai Ambani was born to a school master, Hirachand Gordhanbhai and his wife, Jamnaben Ambani. Apart from Dhirubhai, the couple was blessed with four children, Trilochana Ben, Ramaniklal Ambani, Jasuben and Natubhai. Dhirubhai was preceded by his elder sister, Trilochana, who went onto play an indirect yet crucial part in the Reliance Industries. The entire family were residents in the town of Chorward, Junagarh in Gujarat.

Well, not much is known about the personal lives of Trilochana Ben and her husband. In fact, one can rarely spot a picture of the duo anywhere. Nevertheless, the duo was reported to be blessed with a son, Shri Rasiklal Meswani, who became an integral part and was one of the founder directors of the Reliance Company.

Coming to the third generation of Trilochana Ben’s family, she has two grandsons, Nikhil R Meswani and Hital R Meswani, who have been key players at the Reliance Group of Industries. Nikhil had joined RIL in 1986 and has been designated as the Executive Director on the board of the company. He majorly looks after the petrochemical department of the company and has been responsible for making some significant contributions to the same. Moreover, he is also involved in the various sports initiatives of the Reliance group, which include its IPL team, Mumbai Indians as well as handling of the Indian Super League.

The younger grandson of Trilochana Ben, Hital R Meswani had joined the company comparatively later in 1995 and had grabbed the same position as an Executive Director much like his elder brother, Nikhil. Hital is responsible for a vast division of interest in the company, that includes the Petroleum Refining and Marketing business, Petrochemicals Manufacturing as well as other corporate duties of the company, such as Human Resource Management, Information Technology, Research and Technology as well as the Capital Projects Execution.

When Mukesh Ambani recalled his cousin, Rasiklal Meswani being his first boss in the company

Mukesh Ambani, the current torchbearer of the Reliance Group has proved his mettle in the art of business making quite successfully, much like his father, Dhirubhai Ambani. Nevertheless, even after achieving so much heights, he has never forgotten to be humble and always respected his beginnings. For instance, in one of his earlier interviews with Rediff, Mukesh had recalled his early staggering stages in the business and had heaped praises on  his first boss and cousin, Shri Rasiklal Meswani for guiding him correctly. For the unversed, Rasiklal is the son of Mukesh’s aunt and Dhirubhai’s sister, Trilochana Ben. He had mentioned:

“This was in 1981. Rasikbhai Meswani, Nikhil and Hital's father, was my first boss. The management style used to be very open. We could walk into each other's cabin, join in a meeting or get involved in any discussion. My father encouraged it. But when I joined Reliance formally, he said you need to have a boss and I was put under Rasikbhai's charge. He was running our polyester business, which consisted of importing polyester fibre, texturising it and selling it to textile mills. It was a new business compared to our own textile mill at Naroda (near Ahmedabad) that brought in almost 60%-70% of the profits.”
