The Gaikwad-Patil Group derives its inspiration from Late Shri. Tulsiramji Gaikwad-Patil, the grandfather of the Chairman of the Group, Dr. Mohan Gaikwad-Patil. A man far ahead of his times, Shri. Tulsiramji Gaikwad-Patil was primarily an agriculturist, but also a true connoisseur with many varied interests. One of his passions was education. This visionary bucked the trend of sending sons into agriculture and ensured excellent education for his children and grandchildren. It was his foresight that took the family from being rural landlords to urban, uber-class professionals and entrepreneurs. It would not be far wrong to say that the real foundation of the Gaikwad-Patil Group was laid by Shri. Tulsiramji Gaikwad-Patil ability to look into the future.

In the near future, the GPGI is poised to become one of the best and most dynamic institutions which will cater to varied educational needs of the increasingly bustling region of Vidarbha. With the ever increasing levels of competition in the education sector, there is always an opportunity of moving beyond expectations, creating new milestones and benchmarks.
