Mahashian Di Hatti also known as MDH, is the second largest leader in the Indian market with 12% market share, following S. Narendrakumar's Everest Spices.

History:

Mahashay Chunnilal Gulati set up the masala company in 1919 in Sialkot, British India (Now Pakistan).

Mahashay Dharampal Gulati, the son of the founder moved to Delhi after the partition of India. He opened a shop in a shack and started selling spices like his father. He later opened his shop at Ajmal Khan Road, Karol Bagh and expanded from there. In 1959 he bought a plot in Kirti Nagar to set up his own spice factory.

From there, he built the entire group to one of India's leading spices manufacturers expanding to 15 factories. Speaking to The Economic Times last year, he said, "My motivation to work is being sincere in product quality sold at affordable prices. And nearly 90% of my salary goes to charity in my personal capacity."

At the age of 94, Dharam Pal was the highest paid Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) CEO in India in 2017. He took home over ₹210 million (equivalent to ₹280 million or US$3.4 million in 2023) as salary in the last fiscal year. Two years later, on 16 March 2019, the 14th President of India Ram Nath Kovind conferred the Padma Bhushan award for Trade & Industry.
