Our History

Everyone knows that history is never made in a day. So is the history of Kagna. And also Gnanam. Ancestral lineage of the efforts shall then be put in a chronology. We owe all credits to our grandfather, Shri AK Kaliappa Chettiar who set his mind before business, in this manner so that generations after we still follow the flawless vibe to dedicated karma. And that history started a year before the second world war. In 1938.
