If you think of homeopathy in India, one name springs to mind-Dr Batra's". From humble beginnings with a clinic in Chowpatty, Bombay in 1982, Dr Mukesh Batra put homeopathy on the world map by starting over 200 clinics in seven countries and in 150 cities of India in the next four decades.

The Nation's Homeopath is an unusual tale of entrepreneurship, risk appetite, resilience and self-belief. In the early eighties when India was still a decade away from liberalization, and loans were not readily available, Dr Batra borrowed money at a staggering interest rate of 36 per cent per annum. All based on the strong conviction that his business would work out. Not only did the business succeed, Dr Batra's became a household name.

Dr Batra's life has been eventful. For decades, he has treated celebrities, including presidents, prime ministers, actors, sportsmen, artists, among others, as well as the common man without discrimination. Along the way, he has defied death on multiple occasions, has known love and heartache and has experienced failure in some business ventures. Part memoir, part guidebook for entrepreneurs, Dr Batra's life has lessons that would benefit readers from any sphere of activity.

DR MUKESH BATRA is a homeopath of international repute and Founder and Chairman Emeritus of Dr Batra's group of companies-which encompasses the largest chain of homeopathy clinics, day-care aesthetic centres and health and wellness products. Dr Batra has authored six bestselling books on homeopathy. He has also published several research papers in journals and chaired scientific sessions at homeopathic conferences, nationally and internationally. Dr Batra has been honoured with the Padma Shri for Medicine (Homeopathy) in 2012 by the President of India for his contribution towards the field of homeopathy.
