In these pages, Gupta recalls his unlikely rise from orphan to immigrant to international icon as well as his dramatic fall from grace. Throughout his trial and imprisonment, Gupta has fought the charges and maintains his innocence to this day. Against the backdrop of public rage and recrimination that followed the financial crisis, he was found guilty and sentenced to two years in jail. In 2011, to the shock of the international business community, Gupta was arrested and charged with insider trading. A globally respected figure, he sat on the boards of distinguished philanthropic institutions such as the Gates Foundation and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, and corporations, including Goldman Sachs, American Airlines, and Procter & Gamble.
He was also the driving force behind major initiatives such as the Indian School of Business and the Public Health Foundation of India. For nine years, Rajat Gupta led McKinsey & Co.-the first foreign-born person to head the world's most influential management consultancy.
