New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has appointed Jaxay Shah, Founder Chairman of Savvy Group and former Chairman of CREDAI to assume the role of the Chairman of the Quality Council of India (QCI) for a period of three years effective from 21st October 2022.

The incumbent chairman succeeds the former McKinsey India Chief Adil Zainulbhai who served as the Chairman of QCI through three terms for a period of eight years from 2014 to 2022.

Jaxay Shah has been appointed based on his vast industry experience which shall contribute to further propelling the wheels of Quality, a legacy established by the former Chairpersons of QCI. Shah founded one of India’s largest infrastructure conglomerates, the Savvy Group in 1996 and held the position of national chairman of CREDAI, the apex body of private Real Estate developers in India. In addition, he also holds the position of the Chairman of the ASSOCHAM Western Region Development Council and serves as the Advisor at the PharmEasy Accelerator Program, which offers 1 lakh+ medicine and health products.

Speaking of this new journey, Shah conveyed, “I am grateful to Hon. Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji for appointing me as Chairman, QCI. I congratulate Adil Zainulbhai for his remarkable tenure at QCI. Under his leadership, this organization has witnessed tremendous growth and scale. I am fortunate to be taking on from here. QCI is a vibrant organization of 1000+ people who are improving the quality of life for 140 crore Indian citizens. I am a huge believer in the India story and confident that QCI will be pivotal in fulfilling PM’s vision of India as a developed country by 2047. This will be achieved on the pillars of quality and credibility of everything that is ‘Made in India’ for the world.”

Guided by the vision of the Prime Minister, QCI has leveraged the power of its accredited organizations, emerging technologies, and a dynamic workforce to help the government with various flagship schemes to assess the quality of education, healthcare, food, sanitation, groundwater management, and natural resources like coal. It has been instrumental in expanding India’s quality of RTPCR testing capacity through accreditation during COVID-19. Many of QCI’s contributions to schemes such as Swachh Bharat Mission, Government eMarketplace (GeM), PM Ujjwala Yojana, PM Awas Yojana, Atal Innovation Mission, Atal Bhujal Mission, Zero Defect Zero Effect (ZED) and Deen Dayal Upadhyay Gram Jyoti Yojana have helped develop a robust focus on monitoring and effectiveness in public service delivery and governance. Besides these, QCI has also been leading pioneering transformational projects such as the Open Network for Digital Commerce, Unnati Employment Network, Made in India Scheme, National Programme Management Policy and Framework, CPGRAMS redress monitoring, and Transformation of Food Corporation of India – many of which have been undertaken in the spirit of PM’s vision of Aatmanirbhar Bharat.
