Sahara India Pariwar is among India's largest private enterprises . The company has interests in media, airlines (see Air Sahara) and housing. It employs more than 9.10 Lac people, the largest by any private Indian company[citation needed] . Since the group is rather secretive, an accurate account of its annual turnover or profits are not available. The company is headed by Subroto Roy. Subroto Roy was away from the public eye for over 6 months and was believed to have suffered a debilitating stroke which had severely impaired his speech. After intense media speculation he appeared for a press conference and clarified questions about his health and the group's health.
