Air Commodore (Dr.) Vijaypat Singhania, recipient of Padma Bhusan, former chairman of Raymond Group and former Sheriff of Bombay passed away on Saturday (March 28, 2026) evening in Mumbai.

“A visionary leader, philanthropist, and an inspiring personality, whose legacy will continue to guide and inspire generations,” the Raymond Group said in a statement.

He was best known for transforming the Raymond Group into a global fashion powerhouse. He took over the company in 1980 and expanded its portfolio to include textiles, steel, and hospitality.

He held the world record for highest altitude gained in a hot air balloon and winning the gold medal in an around-the-world air race.

Once he decided to take retirement and handed over the reins of Raymond to his son Gautam Singhania in 2015, their relationship soured, leading to a public feud. Since then he and wife had been living in a rented apartment, a marked difference from his flamboyant life style.

His last rites will be performed on Sunday (March 29, 2026).

Lamborghini India could not immediately reach out about the matter.

New Delhi:

Raymond Group Chairman and Managing Director Gautam Singhania has blasted Italian carmaker Lamborghini for “arrogance” having failed to reach out to him regarding an issue with his car.

Mr Singhania had earlier tweeted on X about his Lamborghini Revuelto getting stranded at Mumbai’s trans-harbour link due to a complete electrical failure.

“I’m shocked at the arrogance of India Head @Agarwal_sharad and Asia Head Francesco Scardaoni. No one has reached out even to check what the customer issues are,” he tweeted on Sunday.

Lamborghini India could not immediately reach out about the matter.

In a tweet on October 16, Mr Singhania had noted that the Lamborghini India and Asia leadership failed to reach out to him despite him being an old loyal customer.

“It is shocking that the India Head of Lamborghini @agarwal_sharad has not even bothered to make a phone call to enquire what the problem with an old loyal customer is. Is the brand arrogance getting to another level?” he tweeted.

Earlier this month, Singhania had tweeted about taking his new Lamborghini Revuelto for a test drive and ended up stranded on the trans-harbour link due to a complete electrical failure.

“It’s a brand-new car’. Are there reliability concerns? This is the third one I’ve heard of experiencing issues within 15 days of delivery,” he had stated.

Lamborghini Revuelto is priced around Rs 8.89 crore in India.
