His mother, Srimati Vilasmati Patil, and father, Shri J.D. Patil, were both deeply committed to the teaching profession, which greatly influenced Shri Santosh Patil's own career and values. His mother, a national award-winning teacher, was honoured for her exceptional service by the former President of India, the Late Shri Shankar Dayal Sharma.

Among his many achievements, he has been honoured with prestigious awards like "Maharashtra's Girishikhar" and "Kalpak Udyojak" for his contributions to the industrial sector. In addition to his professional achievements, Shri Santosh Patil’s spiritual grounding, inherited from his father, who was revered as Acharya Shri Sanmati Sagar Ji Maharaj, a well-known Jain Muni, has been a guiding force in his life.
