“Chirawa and Nawalgarh (today towns in modern-day Jhunjhunu district of Rajasthan) have for some reason historically produced the largest concentration of prominent Marwari business families. The Dalmias, for example, are from Chirawa itself, while the Birlas are from Pilani, a distance of 17 kilometres.

The Singhanias, Bajajs, Mittals, Ruias and Sarafs hail from other nearby towns and villages.”
