Co-Founder Dream Dip Delight

Hitesh Hanotia – Entrepreneur, Innovator, and Consultant

I am Hitesh Hanotia, a 35-year-old entrepreneur from Ahmedabad with a BBA degree from Chimanbhai Institute of Business Administration and extensive experience in entrepreneurship, consultancy, and business development. I am also a Professional Group Student of the Institute of Company Secretaries of India, having appeared for one paper, which reflects my strong understanding of corporate governance and compliance.

My professional journey began with Motwane Manufacturing Pvt Ltd (2013-2015), where I managed sales operations across Gujarat, established dealership and distributorship networks, and executed promotional strategies.

In 2015, I ventured into consultancy by founding HITESH HANOTIA & ASSOCIATES. For over seven years, I specialized in FSSAI licensing, Ministry of Corporate Affairs compliance, and end-to-end consultancy for food businesses. Alongside, I gained expertise in eCommerce account management through my venture H H Enterprise, where I have been helping clients handle accounts on platforms like Amazon and Flipkart, optimizing logistics, and strategizing for business growth.

In 2023, I launched Dream Dip Delight, under the umbrella of Minerv Ease Health Pvt Ltd, to create a niche in the healthy snacks industry. Dream Dip Delight focuses on gluten-free, millet-based snacks that are baked and free from additives, offering an array of cookies and puffs at affordable prices. My goal is to make healthier snacking accessible to all while promoting the benefits of millet as a sustainable and nutritious food source. I am also expanding the product line to include chickpea-based gluten-free offerings for domestic and export markets.

Apart from my entrepreneurial ventures, I provide consultancy for company formation, legal compliance, and strategy, helping startups and established businesses navigate complex regulatory environments.

With a strong foundation in corporate governance, logistics, product development, and eCommerce, I am passionate about creating innovative solutions that drive business growth while making a positive impact on consumer health and sustainability.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"If there’s one phrase that sums up my journey, it’s truly ‘The eChai Effect.’ Six years ago, I simply walked into my first eChai event, not knowing what to expect. The honest conversations, energy, and inspiration from founders and entrepreneurs struck a chord within me. That eChai spark became the catalyst for everything to follow. I proudly say: my entrepreneurship journey started—and keeps evolving—because of eChai. Redicine Medsol’s story is integrally linked to this community. I’ve gained so much, not just as a founder but as a forever volunteer and grateful member of the eChai family. With all my heart, thank you Jatin Bhai and everyone at eChai for shaping, guiding, and supporting my dreams. The eChai Effect will always be a part of my story."

“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."

"After moving back from the USA, eChai became my go-to space to learn how the Indian startup ecosystem works. It offered direct exposure to startup thinking and a community that openly shares business insights. What stood out was how easy it was to connect, learn, and grow through real conversations. As we built our IT hardware rentals business, eChai helped us find our niche and refine our path. Proud and grateful to be part of this amazing community."
