Dr. Mahtani’s business and corporate life has been full of ups and downs. One of the major reasons behind this is Dr. Mahtani’s strict adherence to transparent, honest and ethical business practices. In a nation full of corrupt politicians, legal authorities and businesses, Dr. Mahtani has made a unique name for himself with his transparent business practices. Despite having friendly network with big names in the Zambian political and economic sphere, there has not been even a single evidence of political or business lobbying or unethical favours from Dr. Mahtani or any of his businesses. This transparent and ethical nature of Dr. Mahtani can be easily seen from the fact that he had to fight across two different courts for more than a decade in the Portland Cement Zambia case for getting justice.

Business success provides individuals with the opportunity of networking with powerful people as well as individuals and houses with big names. In his successful business journey, Dr. Mahtani made a positive impression on numerous political figures of Zambia and even had a positive working relationship with the previous president of Zambia, Levy Mwanawasa. Even after the sad demise of the Zambia’s former president, Dr. Mahtani has always remained friendly and supportive of the family. However, a new story started to make round in social media during the mid-2019.

Miriam, daughter of late president of Zambia Levy Mwanawasa, recently made a claim that Dr. Rajan Mahtani wanted to inherit her farm situated at the Masaiti District at Copperbelt Province. While this claim seems outrageous, immediate attention was given to the fact that the claim was made on a social media platform, Facebook. On top of that, there were no evidence or attachments to support her claim. This quickly suggested that the claim made was invalid. However, outrageous claims like these certainly image the image of notable businessmen in a negative manner and as a result, Dr. Mahtani has made it clear that he will take appropriate actions against this unethical behaviour.
