When his studies were complete, he entered the family business in land and factories.[3] He continued his father's philanthropic work, and in recognition of his contribution to the city of Karachi, his statue was placed at the intersection of Karachi's main roads in the 1930s.[2]
NED University of Engineering and Technology
In 1924, the Prince of Wales Engineering College was renamed to NED University of Engineering & Technology after his sons made donations to the College in remembrance of their father.[4]
Family
His brother, Framroze Edulji Dinshaw (known as FE Dinshaw) was one of pre-partition India's most prominent businessmen and lawyers.[5] He had four sons, Hoshang, Minocher, Dinshaw and Faredoon.[4][6]
His son Hoshang NE Dinshaw played a part in the economic development of Pakistan, including as the President of the Central Board of Directors of the National Bank of Pakistan.[7]
The descendants of Nadirshaw Edulji Dinshaw have kept up his philanthropic tradition. The Edulji Dinshaw family remains particularly noted for their charitable donations, especially to non-Parsis.[8]
