Ankita De

Co-Founder, Utsav

As the Founder of Utsav, India's Puja booking app at famous temples, I'm passionate about merging technology and spirituality to enhance the devotion experience.

With experience in Content, Marketing, Sales, and Operations, I'm committed to making Utsav the ultimate destination for spiritual seekers.

During my college years, I served as the President of the Entrepreneurship Cell, where I honed my leadership skills and helped foster innovation and entrepreneurship among my peers.

I'm proud to have taken on challenges as a woman founder in the tech industry, turning obstacles into opportunities and breaking barriers to create a meaningful impact.

In my spare time, I love spending moments observing people around me and enjoying the thrill of playing badminton. During my B Tech journey, I had the opportunity to explore working with other startups, where I contributed to building their first versions of products.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"We found eChai to be a force multiplier throughout our startup journey. Through it, we connected with folks from DevX, Allevents, Plutomen, and more - many of whom became friends of IndiaBizForSale.com and even part of our clientele."

"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."

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”
