Having lost all his ancestral properties and Industries besides the farm land in the upheaval and holocaust of partition, he moved to Shivpuri where providentially a small katha unit had been set up in 1943(pre-partition). This became his sole industry. He bravely overcame his loss and concentrated on running the katha mill which was the second of its kind in the country. He was ably aided by his son Diwan SurinderLal.The Katha mill has now diversified into a Herbal Extraction Unit which is being run by his grandson Diwan Arvind Lal and great grandson Arjun Lal. Diwan Arvind Lal together with his wife Mrs. Gita Diwan have successfully created the Happy Days School along with a Hostel for Boys.

A Trophy is awarded for overall Excellence in all three disciplines Academics, sports and Arts for class XII students. This Trophy is awarded in memory of Mrs. Shiela Puri. She was extremely talented and versatile with a strong aesthetic sense. As a member of the All India Women’s conference, she was a capable social worker, very sympathetic for social causes. In 1947 she started a cooperative society in her home to help refugee women stand on their own feet and give them a livelihood, confidence and dignity. As she was an experienced needle woman having trained in the Royal School of Needlework London she guided them into making and embroidering garments and table linen which were sold at the Cottage Industries Emporium in Delhi. She then worked for a time with the Oberoi Hotels until her husband started farming in the Terai. This was pioneering work at the start, living in thatched huts with the ever present danger of wild animals, mainly elephants and tigers. But she succeeded admirably into becoming a perfect farmer's wife adjusting to the new conditions using her talents as a homemaker. Her aesthetic and creative nature making even the rough mud hut into a beautiful home.
