Established in 1865 as a partnership firm named Littlewood Pallonji, the company has built a trusted legacy of engineering excellence spanning over 160 years. Founded by Pallonji Mistry, the group has evolved from a local construction firm into an international institution with a dedicated workforce of over 37,000 to 60,000 employees and an active operational presence in more than 40 to 70 countries across Europe, the Americas, Australia, the Middle East, Africa, and Southeast Asia. The core operations of the Shapoorji Pallonji Group are organized across six major business segments: engineering and construction, infrastructure, real estate, water, energy, and financial services. As a premier provider of Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) solutions, the group has built diverse, highly complex civil and heavy engineering structures worldwide. Its extensive portfolio includes residential and commercial spaces, townships, IT parks, airports, hospitals, hotels, educational campuses, data centers, and massive industrial facilities.

Historically, the company is renowned for constructing iconic landmarks that have shaped major urban landscapes. In Mumbai, it built historical structures such as the Brabourne Stadium, the Mumbai Central Railway station, the Reserve Bank of India building, and the Bombay Stock Exchange tower. Its international achievements feature landmark projects like the Al Alam Palace for the Sultan of Oman, the Imperial towers in Mumbai, and the Ebene Cyber City in Mauritius. Furthermore, the group has executed critical modern infrastructure ventures, such as the Atal Tunnel and the Chenab Railway Bridge. As a privately-owned enterprise, the group benefits from operational flexibility and long-term strategic planning. Its real estate development vertical, managed via Shapoorji Pallonji Real Estate Private Limited (SPREL), handles millions of square feet of residential and commercial projects across India.
