Interview With Ashish Chauhan.
VG: You have an image of a successful, result oriented and charming professional. Many who have heard of you have shown an interest in knowing of your social and professional grooming and journey through your educational and family life to get you where you are. Could you briefly cover the key elements, thereof?
AC: When I look back, there have been several influences. Coming from a small town of India is one of them. I was brought up in Ahmedabad. The city had a milieu of high unemployment in 1970s and perpetual draughts interspersed with social movements and riots. This was a unique background for any child to grow up in. Gujarat was very religious and that rubbed off on me too. As an individual, I have always thought of life as something to be lived for others. Studying in Gujarati medium school till class 12 was another major influence. While helping to focus, it reduced choices of what one could read. It continued as a factor even after my joining IIT-B. Learning English along with problem solving and managing people proved a major challenge. Computer programming and understanding of real time high speed data capture from the field was also an interesting aspect of learning at IIT which helped me set up IT and Networks for NSE later on. Studying at IIM -C created comfort in finance and working with IDBI set the career in finance.

Startup Bubble: Rise Or Fall?
The Startup story : what works, what doesn’t?
How I Started And Nurtured My Startup..!
Coming from a service class family, I had no idea of business. I had no one to turn to for the basics. I got in touch with some consultants; none of them knew the entire process of getting all the approvals. We were very clear, we did not want to start on the wrong foot, and we wanted to be 100% compliant. I did face many challenges at various stages e.g. in just few months of launch, the competition tried to pull us down, however the issue was resolved soon. Teacupsfull now is a fully registered brand. Challenges do prop up many times, however the key is to stay positive and never give up. There is always a solution to every problem.
