Industrial Organizations have existed in India since pre-historic times. In the Mouryan era, the guild united co-operatives of the craftsman as well as individual workman to fix rules of work, wages, quality and prices for the commodities.

Towards the end of the Nineteenth century, to strengthen the hands of the nascent Indian industries and local traders, the need for establishment of Chambers of Commerce was again felt. Thus the year 1990 heralded not only the Twentieth Century but also an important Institution, the Marwari Chamber of Commerce.

Following Indian Independence, secularism became the buzzword and in 1949, the Chamber re-christened itself as Bharat Chamber of Commerce. Born at the cross-road of the Twentieth Century, the Chamber has withstood the ravages of time through its glorious history and has emerged successfully as a composite body of varied types and sizes of business.
