Intern at Livspace, IIM Kozhikode, Solnce Energy

🟡 I have deep interest in business, startups, management consulting, marketing. I've been exploring it for the last 2 years, so I now possess a solid understanding of how businesses function, develop, and manage their teams, products, markets, brands, and corporate cultures, customer insights, analyzing market segment, analyzing brand, market positioning.

🟡 I constantly keep updating myself by listening to the latest business podcasts and reading business books. I explored Business strategy and Marketing strategy of 150+ start-ups and the number is increasing day by day.

🟡 Previously I worked with Livspace for the project of expansion of Livspace's retail store in tier-1 cities in my summer internship, It really helped me to explore retail sector of india. I got overview of every single domain in retail like electronics, automobiles, salon, cosmetic store, watch brands, cafes, jewelry, interior design companies, furniture store, home automation companies, clothing brands, mattress stores, marble & tile store, bathroom supply stores, lighting store, paint industry, home appliance store, bags & luggage, eyewear companies, shoes brands, baby store, etc.

🟡 I have worked as an research intern at IIM Kozhikode on the topic of digitization of small businesses. Meeting 50 store owners was a wonderful experience; they mostly owned restaurants and clothing stores. I asked them 75+ questions, including how much money they had invested when they first opened, what obstacles they faced when moving their operations online, whether they were satisfied with their choice and investment, and whether digitization had increased their sales.

🟡I also followed my curiosity and tried out for a internship at Solnce Energy, which gave me a thorough understanding of the solar industry. I also worked as the sponsorship coordinator for Sparsh, the annual cultural festival of SVNIT Surat in the years 2022 and 2023, which gave me an abundance of sales experience. I went through the process of experiencing the deep joy of rejection and approaching the next potential sponsors with full of my energy, which was a memorable experience of college.

🟡 After doing so much exploration, I discovered a few traits about myself that defined who I am: I'm a Super Pumped Explorer, Resilient and Realistic Optimist, Creative Thinker, Decisive Leader, Responsible Collaborator, Influential Networker, Critical Analyst, an Intelligent Curious.

🟡 I am pre final year student at SVNIT Surat, pursuing B.Tech in Chemical Engineering but currently exploring Commerce by choice :)

“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!”
