History

There is no credible information on how Mohone got its name though there is a myth that it may have got the name from the Mohoni Goddess. Early settlers and tribals inhibited pockets of land around Mohone. Mohone came into limelight when a major chemical and rayon manufacturing company called National Rayon Corporation (FOUNDER MR.RASHIKLAL CHINAI SHET NOW CALLED NRC Ltd) established their Functional working unit. The company provided living facilities (apartments, hospital, club, school, shopping) to the employees thus forming the NRC Colony. NRC Ltd, went on to become one of the top companies of India in the early 1970s. Such an establishment resulted in sudden population growth and an opportunity for new businesses.


Economy

Mohone's economy largely depended on National Rayon Corporation. The founder of this company was Mr. Rashiklal chinai shet. Its population consisted mostly of middle-class community and the labour class. Mohone maintained a steady economy until recently when it faced few problems due to lockout of NRC on 15 November 2009.
