More about Hunny Bhagchandani

I, Hunny Bhagchandani, Founder of TorchIt, social innovator share a keen sense to bring change in the society by empowering the differently abled community with the Power of Independence. 

Growing up in a modern Sindhi business family in Ahmedabad, I acquired the traits of being compassionate while also bringing economics to everything where if a thing is not effective and sustainable, it wouldn’t survive the test of time. 

I pursued my Bachelors in Industrial Engineering from Pandit Deendayal Petroleum University (PDPU), India. I have to my credit Leadership Innovation fellowship from the Royal Academy of Engineering, UK; also, fellow at Enabling Toys, MIT Media Lab, US. 

The idea behind TorchIt remains to bring innovative products for Differently Abled community, so they can lead their lives independently.

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."

“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.”

"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."
