kshitij chauhan

founder @ syndicate

let's keep it informal: do you know why i love lowercase letters? they are so relaxing, aren't they? but why does someone need to relax a bit? well there's a story to that… (maybe, i'll cry writing it)

hey, i'm kshitij aka samosa. i'm 21. i've been studying brands since i was in 9th standard. i'm currently building a tech startup, codenamed syndicate.

i'm a middle-class guy who struggled a lot to make things work.

i've seen a lot of things in my life, that even a 40 years older might not see in their lifetime. i've seen the days with no food, to the ones with a 3-star buffet. i got punished in my school 'cause i didn't have fees. got bullied for that too.

unlike others who might have heard about these stories, i'm the one who has seen all of them in front of me.

i've seen bare children shivering on the roads, i've seen people begging for medicines, i've seen people dying in need of oxygen. my grandpa died after eating adulterated food. i've seen kids on discord being blackmailed for sharing nudes. i've seen people getting alzheimer's after losing someone they loved. i've seen people lighting themselves on fire after having so much anxiety.

i've been so close to ending my life, to getting everything i can ever have.

growing in all those conditions, was a guy who was curious, whose only sin was having big dreams. when there were so many family disputes at his home, he used to cry a lot. his biggest escape from these tensions were 00s-10s english songs. and ofcourse writing lowercase letters to himself.

his superpower: he never lost hope.

all he did was to read stories of steve jobs and listen to 'wavin flag' by k'naan, in a hope that everything would eventually get better.

i'm leaving this story incomplete, so that i'll have something to tell whenever we talk freely.

now here i am.
it's 2024,

i'm trying to give back things to the ones who don't have those.

i have so many great ideas & i'm on my way to learn building them. i wanna build products for billions.

i've previously built some cool things with affordability and quality in mind.

my goals:
- realizing my ideas to life.
- fighting hunger & poverty.
- giving back to earth, environment & animals.
- writing a non-fiction: 'letters to my younger self'
- talking to strangers and bringing smiles to their faces.

feel free to message me. although i'm an ambivert, i would love to make new friends.
if you can help, i have some ideas to work on. have a nice day 🌻

just remember this: bad days are just like dark tunnels, however dark it may be, there will always be light at the end of them.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“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!”

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
