The Nasher Miles Story

In 2014, we embarked on a venture that would eventually evolve into a luggage brand that would be a market disruptor and make it to national headlines within a span of 7 years and in doing so remain bootstrapped and profitable. Our small, tight-knit team, connected by a shared passion for business and entrepreneurship, is ever ready to ride the twists and turns of the evolving online retail scene in India.

A lean 45 member team, passionate and cohesive about their shared vision to make Nasher Miles one of the top luggage brands in India by 2028, is working ever so hard to realise this goal.

Our "moat", so to speak of, is execution. We take pride in our operational efficiency, a testament to our commitment to excellence. 


Me?
Extrovert, Multitasker, deceptively disorganised. 

In a world teeming with solo pursuits, I stand firm in my appreciation for joint interactions, building bonds that go beyond the transactional.
My extended family and some amazing friends are important pillars of support.


I have had my fair share of rollercoaster rides and twists and turns. From being in the middle of the dotcom boom (and bust) at the turn of the millenium in silicon valley to embarking on an entrepreneurial journey which was superbly eclectic.

From web development, mail server maintenance to medical billing, manufacturing industrial rubber components and retail and distribution of ceramic flooring, I've done it all and at times wearing more than one hat at a time. 

I don't see myself retiring at any given point it time and probably not even slowing down.

Always the contrarian rooting for the underdog, there would always be that one insane, crazy idea or venture that would tickle my interest.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

“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."

"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."
