Founded in 2015, Shadowfax didn’t just race into the hyperlocal delivery space—they galloped. Co-founder Abhishek Bansal learned early on that success isn’t just about growth, it’s about sustainable growth. When rivals burned through funds, Shadowfax held back, surviving the 2016 market crash when dozens of others couldn’t. The strategy worked! By 2021, their revenue skyrocketed to ₹464 Cr, with a run rate set to break ₹1,036 Cr. But for Bansal, it’s not about chasing unicorn status or crazy valuations. “Our focus is profitability, not vanity metrics,” he says. With strategic choices and a tech-driven approach, Shadowfax has become a lifeline for enterprises across 600 cities, now handling millions of orders a month. In the fast-paced world of delivery logistics, the key to winning is knowing when to pull the reins. And with Shadowfax’s steady climb, it seems they’ve mastered the balance. #StartupGrowth #LogisticsLeader #EntrepreneurshipJourney #Shadowfax #HyperlocalDelivery #BusinessTransformation #B2BLogistics #GigEconomy

From Mechanical Engineer to Fig Farming Pioneer! At 30, Samir Dombe took a bold step, leaving behind a corporate career to become India’s first homegrown fig jam producer. In 2014, Samir started farming in Pune, and by 2018, he launched Pavitrak, a brand dedicated to producing 100% organic, chemical-free fig jams. While most fig jams in India are imported, Pavitrak stands out as a local, high-quality product that lasts up to 12 months. 🌟What’s his secret? His technical background gives him a unique perspective on farming, ensuring every product is crafted with care. Despite early struggles with irrigation, logistics, and the occasional criticism for leaving his ""safe"" job, Samir’s innovative spirit has led him to success. Today, Pavitrak’s products are available in cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Bangalore through Amazon, Flipkart, and major retail stores like Reliance. His message to farmers? ""Know your field, focus on quality, and cut out the middlemen."" Samir proves that passion, knowledge, and innovation can lead to greatness—no matter the career path you start with. #FigJam #Pavitrak #MadeInIndia #AgroEntrepreneur #OrganicProducts #SustainableFarming #FoodEntrepreneur #FigFarmer #IndianFarmers #FarmToTable #HealthyEating #FarmingInnovations

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday said the foundation of the state’s rapid cultural, economic, and industrial growth since 2017 had been its zero-tolerance policy towards crime.
