Founder & Chairman @ Nasher Miles
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
“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”

"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didn’t only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."

“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!”
