Also known as Sambhu Guha · Merchant remembered in Bardhaman

Shambhu Charan Guha, also known as Sambhu Guha, is remembered by the project owner as a prosperous Bardhaman merchant associated with cement depots and petrol pumps. This account brings the region’s trading families into the collection alongside its public and cultural figures.

Published records corroborate the business name: a Ministry of Corporate Affairs list records Shambhu Charan Guha & Sons Pvt Ltd, incorporated on 23 May 1983. An Axis Bank list of IndianOil outlets also names Shambhu Charan Guha at Bijoygram in Purba Bardhaman.[1][2]

The personal biography, cement business and Aguri connection come from the project owner’s account. The company and outlet records confirm the business names, but do not independently establish those personal details.
