co-founder, re-verse.in

I grew up in Kotkapura,a small town in punjab, completing my education through high school with a strong academic record. My career journey began with hands-on experience in the service industry, where I worked as a manager at Papa John's Pizza in Netherlands. There, I learned how to manage operations like deliveries and finances, gaining valuable skills in customer service and efficiency.

After gaining experience in the pizza industry, I decided to pause my college studies to focus on starting my own business. This decision was driven by my passion to create something meaningful and innovative. While living in Europe, I closely observed the clothing market and its extensive export network to over a hundred developed countries such as India and Myanmar. I was particularly fascinated by how they efficiently export used clothes, contributing significantly to the global thrift market. This observation deeply influenced the concept behind my current startup. But i want to take this to next level in my own country.

So i decided to come back india after spending 5 years in Netherlands. Here I worked with my father in Indian textile industry, which gave me insights into manufacturing and managing supply chains. This experience deepened my understanding of business operations and strengthened my determination to succeed as an entrepreneur. On closely analysing how much waste this industry produces the idea for my current startup clicked to me.

Today, I combine my academic background, practical experience, and entrepreneurial spirit to lead my startup towards achieving its goals. My journey reflects my commitment to learning, innovation, risk taking abilities and making a positive impact in the business.

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."

"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.

“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."
