Left ₹1.5 cr US job, Delhi founder launches 60-Min med delivery
In a heartwarming story of entrepreneurship and compassion, Rajat Gupta, a Delhi-based entrepreneur, has quit his lucrative job in the United States, worth ₹1.5 crore, to launch an innovative online medicine delivery platform in India. The startup, which delivers medicines in under 60 minutes, has already fulfilled over 400 orders in Delhi and is expanding to other cities, including Noida, Mumbai, and more.
Rajat’s journey began when he noticed the struggles of patients in India, who often faced difficulties in finding the medicines they needed due to lack of access to healthcare facilities. As an outsider looking in, he was deeply moved by the plight of these individuals and decided to take action. After months of research and planning, he left his comfortable job in the United States to pursue his dream of launching a medicine delivery platform in India.
The startup, which has not been named, aims to bridge the gap between patients and healthcare providers by providing a convenient and timely medicine delivery service. The platform uses a combination of technology and logistics to ensure that medicines are delivered to customers’ doorstep within 60 minutes of placing an order.
Rajat’s decision to quit his job in the United States was not an easy one. He was earning a salary of ₹1.5 crore, making him one of the highest-paid professionals in his field. However, he believed that his skills and expertise could be put to better use by making a positive impact on people’s lives in India.
“I was earning a great salary, but I felt unfulfilled. I wanted to do something that would make a difference in people’s lives. When I saw the struggles of patients in India, I knew that I had to take action,” Rajat said in an interview.
Rajat’s decision to launch a medicine delivery platform in India was also driven by the country’s healthcare infrastructure. India has a large population, and its healthcare system is still developing. Many patients in rural areas lack access to healthcare facilities, and those in urban areas often face long queues and delays in getting the medicines they need.
Rajat’s startup aims to change this by providing a convenient and timely medicine delivery service. The platform uses a combination of technology and logistics to ensure that medicines are delivered to customers’ doorstep within 60 minutes of placing an order.
The startup has already made a significant impact in Delhi, where it has fulfilled over 400 orders. The platform has also expanded to Noida and is planning to launch in Mumbai and other cities soon. Rajat’s ultimate goal is to expand the platform to tier 2 and 3 cities, where access to healthcare facilities is limited.
Rajat’s story is a testament to the power of entrepreneurship and compassion. By quitting his lucrative job in the United States, he has made a positive impact on people’s lives in India. His startup is a shining example of how innovation and technology can be used to improve healthcare outcomes and make a difference in people’s lives.
