==Business interests==
A member of the Parsi community, he made his initial fortune during the Second Afghan War (1878–1881) by being a contractor for the British Army. He then took his wealth and invested it in land and factories which reaped him huge rewards.〔John R. Hinnells, ''The Zoroastrian Diaspora'', Oxford, (2005) p.202〕 By the late nineteenth century, he owned around half of the city of Karachi,〔Peerzada Salman, ''Even Local Stones Need Love'', in the Dawn Newspaper, 12 July 2009〕 and the local government is believed to have placed an informal ban on his acquiring any more.〔Michael Backman, ''Inside knowledge: streetwise in Asia'', Palgrave MacMillan, (2005) p.255〕 His enterprises included a factory for pressing cotton and wool for export and an ice factory.〔Somerset Playne & J.W. Bond, ''The Imperial Gazetteer, 1920'', quoted in ''Visions of Empire - Karachi Under the Raj 1843-1947'', Karachi, (2004) p.122〕 He also had substantial landholdings in Mumbai.
