An Indian American Entrepreneur's Success Story: Building A Legacy HD

Ajay Bansal’s determination, skill and smart succession planning built a company that is an American dream success story. Ajay came to Cincinnati, Ohio in 1969 as a student and began his career as an electrical engineer with a firm that employed him as a design engineer, then an estimator. Working and learning the business, Ajay began thinking of starting his own engineering and construction company. Ajay founded Bansal Construction, Inc. in 1986. With hard work, ingenuity and a focus on safety, BCI earned increasingly complex infrastructure engineering projects. His company serves as an electrical and general contractor specializing in installation of traffic signals, roadway and parking lot lighting, airport runway and taxiway lighting, and navigational equipment throughout the Midwest. Ran Gupta of Total Asset Planning has worked closely with Ajay for decades, creating financial strategies for his family and for Bansal Construction, Inc. Business owner life insurance has always been an important part of those plans. “So many lives are at stake, and many people work at this company. If I was not available, many lives would be affected,” Ajay asserted. “I’m a firm believer in life insurance.” A true family business and entrepreneur success story, Ajay’s son Anu is now leading the company into the next generation, and their future looks bright. “If they can keep working in this country and be of service to the community, that is what will make me really happy.” Ameritas is proud to protect this American dream.
