Shitalkumar Bathia- CEO, Goverdhan Greens Resorts- Dwarka.

Goverdhan Greens is an eco resort located in outskirts of holy pilgrimage Dwarka- Gujarat.

Shital Bathia- CEO, Goverdhan Greens Resort-Dwarka is a person of multi dimensions . Humble with his approach, he dares to take on uncharted paths, though never had any paid jobs till date.

Early days, full of energy jumped to bandwagon of Dot Coms,,, in 1998-99, he was among first few pioneers in Business to consumer e-commerce way back in 1999- just after indishop & rediff.com, indiancultureonline.com was the first venture he had created with vision to provide a platform to cultural diversity of India.

Sudden fall of Dotcoms' found him nowhere and had started his career back to Zero with a housekeeping agency in the city of Rajkot with name Cleaning Master in 2003.

Business was steady and growing during early days, when it came to expansion, a major setback struck- it was stock market crash of Jan 2008- that had made all the corporate to cut the costs left, right & center! it was rather blessing in disguise proven for Mr. Bathia as he took this incident as one of the learning stepping stone and decided to pursue his dream of having a resort.

During a presentation with CNBC Aawwaz Channel , he says "Hamara Subse Biggest Strength hai our Zero experience Status"- prior to opening up of Goverdhan Greens, he does not have any experience in hospitality or construction business.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"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."

"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."

"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didn’t only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."
