Abhinay Vyas

Vice President - Eduvanz Financing Pvt Ltd

I am a Bachelor’s in Computer Science (B.Sc.) graduate from South Gujarat University with a Master of Business Administration (MBA) specialized in marketing from North Gujarat University.

In totality, I hold a corporate experience of nearly 18 years. I had an experience of working with sectors like pharmaceuticals for a short span and majorly into non-banking finance companies like GE Money Financial Services Ltd., Cholamandalam DBS (Development Bank of Singapore) Finance Ltd and Max New York Life Insurance Co. Ltd in Surat.

I am a hard-core and energetic sales professional with a core expertise in setting up a business process, improving them to ensure highest productivity along with Channel development and management and understanding the money lending business.

I spent my major stint with HDFC Credila Financial Services Ltd. HDFC Credila happens to be India’s 1st dedicated education loan company. I joined this company in April 2010 as a Sales Manager and got elevated through multiple promotions and finally was heading the Ahmedabad Location as an Assistant Vice President - Sales. After a successful and fulfilling innings at HDFC Credila for 13 plus years., I decided to explore new opportunities for myself and embark on a new journey with a goal to set up something of my own and also to create opportunities for others.

Key Skills and Achievements:

Channel Relationship Management: Over nearly two decades in the industry, I have cultivated and nurtured relationships with an extensive network of educational institutions, financial advisors, and other key stakeholders. These relationships have consistently proven instrumental in expanding the reach of education loan products and increasing market share.

Sales Excellence: My consistent achievement of sales targets, year after year, is a testament to my sales acumen. I have a proven ability to identify opportunities, develop effective sales strategies, and lead high-performing sales teams to success.

Market Expansion: Through strategic planning and execution, I have played a pivotal role in expanding the presence of education loan offerings into new geographic regions and market segments. This has resulted in significant revenue growth and market penetration.

Product Knowledge: My deep understanding of education loan products, financial regulations, and market trends enables me to provide expert guidance to clients and colleagues alike. This knowledge has been pivotal in driving informed decision-making and customer satisfaction.

Team Leadership: I have a track record of building and leading motivated sales teams, fostering a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement. This leadership has resulted in increased team productivity and overall organizational success.

Client-Centric Approach: I prioritize the needs and goals of clients, consistently delivering tailored solutions that meet their financial requirements. This approach has earned me a reputation for exceptional customer service and long-lasting client relationships.

My dedication to excellence, strong industry relationships, and comprehensive knowledge of education loans make me a valuable asset in the education financing sector.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."

“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
