Obituary
4th September 2010 was a black day in the history of The Textile Association (India), Mumbai Unit. The Hon. Treasurer, Shri Shailesh
M. Dalal was on his way to his office, BTRA and suddenly had a massive heart attack. He was rushed to the nearby Hospital but
passed away even before getting the medical aid.
The shocking news reached our office in the afternoon and nobody was ready to believe the same as we had spoken to him previous
evening and Mr. Dalal had promised that he will be coming to the Mumbai Unit office tomorrow evening. His visit to the Mumbai Unit
Office never turned up as he left for Heavenly Aboard keeping everybody in a state of shock.
Mr. Dalal was a very active member of The Textile Association (India). He served TAI, Mumbai Unit as its Managing Committee
member from 1991 to 1993 and Governing Council member from 1993 to 2001 and also from 2007 onwards. He also served Central
Office as Jt. Hon. Gen. Secretary from 1993 to 2001. Since 2007 Mr. Dalal was the Hon. Treasurer of TAI, Mumbai Unit. His
suggestions took the balance sheet of Mumbai Unit to the glory.
He was awarded Direct FTA (Fellow of Textile Association) and a Service Memento of The Textile Association (India) for the year 2009.
His Public Relation skills were truly marvelous and that in fact helped the Textile Association to nurture and sustain the support. Though
he was a technical expert from the field of Textile he had tremendous knowledge of accounts.
Mr. S. M. Dalal was B.Text from V.J.T.I., Mumbai University. After having worked in reputed textile mills in Mumbai viz. Morarjee Textiles Ltd., Mafatlal Industries Ltd., Finlay
Group of Mills at various positions for a period of around 6 years, he joined Bombay Textile Research Association (BTRA), Mumbai in 1979. He rose from a level of Senior
Technical Assistant to Chief Textile Technologist in BTRA. Lastly he was Head of Operations Studies Division.
Shri S. M. Dalal a man of the masses who truly had a special place in the hearts of many Textile Professionals is no more with us but his memories will always inspire us in
the years to come. By the sad & sudden demise of Mr. Dalal, The TAI has lost a very important Pillar of Strength.
thThe condolence meeting was held on Friday, 24 September 2010 to pray the respects to Mr. Dalal. The God must have given the everlasting peace to such a wonderful
soul.
Late Shri Shailesh M. Dalal(11.01.1951 to 04.09.2010)
