Manish Rajani

Analytics & Strategy Consultant, Indus Insights

Gurugram

I am Manish Rajani, an Associate Consultant at Indus Insights and an alum of Ashoka University. At Indus, I currently work on advisory for a public BFSI firm based in the US (~$4Bn annual revenue), generating valuable insights for client leadership through data-driven strategy as well as by leveraging advanced analytics techniques in Python, Excel, and SQL. I am also an active contributor to several internal initiatives at Indus, ranging from marketing activities to strategic growth initiatives, supporting the development of the firm.

Previously, at Ashoka, I completed several startup and academic internships across different industries (technology, security, social media, etc.). Innovation excites me, and this has helped me develop a deep interest in the startup ecosystem. I enjoy reading about the developments in Indian startups, and I love to interact with early-stage tech founders given my passion for solving zero-to-one problems and building products.

Outside of work, I am a musician; I'm a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, currently training in Indian Classical music. At Ashoka, I was also the President of the Music Society, which helped me hone my passion for music and develop my leadership skills.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"I have evolved from role of Community Builder to Startup Consultant to Startup Ecosystem Enabler to Angel Investor and now launching a Venture Studio and eChai has been a catalyst in my overall journey as Startup Evangelist since 13 years."

Mehul Shah

Co-Founder at Counselvise & Ivy Growth

“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!”

Shrijay Sheth

Founder at LegalWiz.in and H4H Consulting

"At DevX.Work, we’ve greatly benefited from our association with eChai. Their events and networking forums have connected us with high-potential startups, ecosystem leaders, and innovation-driven professionals — many of whom have become valuable partners, collaborators, and even clients. What stands out most is the openness and accessibility of the community — whether you're an early-stage founder or an experienced entrepreneur, eChai provides a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and grow. It's more than just a network — it's a catalyst for real, collaborative growth. We’re proud to be part of the eChai community. Highly recommended for any organization aiming to grow within the startup space."
