With 10 outlets in Hyderabad (cafés + cloud kitchens), strong consumer packaged goods (CPG) offerings, and expansion plans across Bengaluru and beyond, Yummy Bee is on its way to becoming India’s largest guilt-free food brand.

💡 From the cricket field to building a healthy food revolution – Sandeep’s story proves that setbacks can become stepping stones to massive success.

🚨 India Just Overtook China! 🚨

India is now the world’s fastest-growing private jet market. ✈️

25% growth in just 3 years

China’s fleet fell by one-third in the same time

India already has 490+ jets, projected to cross 700 by 2029

This isn’t just about “rich people buying toys.”
👉 It’s about economic transformation.
👉 It’s about time = money in high-stakes business.
👉 It’s about India producing enough ultra-high-net-worth individuals to make private aviation sustainable.

One industry leader put it perfectly:
💡 “If you make more money by saving time flying private instead of commercial, the jet pays for itself.”

And India is responding—new airports, private terminals, and specialized services are rising to meet the demand.

Because in global business today, speed and flexibility aren’t luxuries—they’re competitive advantages.

✈️ The Rise & Fall of Jet Airways: A Billionaire Dream Turned Nightmare

When Naresh Goyal launched Jet Airways in 1992, it redefined private aviation in India.
By 2006, it was at the top:
👉 120 aircraft in its fleet
👉 Operations across 20 countries
👉 Nearly 1 in 3 passengers in India flew Jet

Goyal lived like royalty — a London mansion, luxury cars, a private yacht, even his own jet. But behind the glossy image, the foundation was crumbling:
👉 A maze of shell companies and questionable deals
👉 Debt swelling past ₹8,500 crore
👉 Unpaid staff salaries and overdue fuel bills

The real picture emerged in 2013, when Etihad Airways acquired a 24% stake and pushed for financial transparency. By April 2019, Jet was grounded, leaving 20,000+ employees jobless. In 2023, Goyal was arrested in a ₹538 crore money laundering case.

🔑 Entrepreneurship Takeaways:
1️⃣ Governance isn’t optional — Scale without discipline is a ticking bomb.
2️⃣ Transparency sustains trust — Shortcuts get exposed sooner or later.
3️⃣ Legacy ≠ Protection — Even 27 years of dominance couldn’t shield bad leadership.
4️⃣ People are the backbone — A leader’s failure cost thousands their livelihoods.

Jet’s collapse is more than a business story — it’s a cautionary tale that integrity, cash flow, and governance matter more than brand and scale.

👉 What’s the biggest lesson you take from Jet’s fall — Governance, Leadership, or Cash Flow?

⚡ Will OpenAI’s AI Job Portal Be the “Next LinkedIn” – or Its Biggest Disruption?

OpenAI is preparing to launch an AI-powered job portal, and it could completely change how we think about hiring, networking, and career growth.

For years, LinkedIn has been the default professional hub. But many users feel stuck in the same loop:

Recruiter spam in the inbox.

Generic, keyword-stuffed job descriptions.

A system where connections often matter more than capabilities.

Now picture something different:
👉 Job seekers matched instantly with roles based on real skills, not just keywords.
👉 AI summarizing your career story and highlighting your unique edge.
👉 Employers skipping endless resumes and instead accessing AI-curated, skill-verified talent pools.

If OpenAI gets this right, it could pressure LinkedIn to evolve beyond being a networking site—and force it to deliver personalized career value at scale.

But here’s the billion-dollar question:
🔮 Will OpenAI’s platform coexist with LinkedIn as a powerful complement…
or will it challenge LinkedIn head-on as the biggest disruption in professional networking since its launch?

I believe the future of careers won’t just be about who you know, but what you can do—and AI is finally tipping the balance in that direction.

💡 What’s your take?
Would you trust an AI-powered platform over LinkedIn to guide your next big career move?

🎓 MBA or Build Something Real?

Shark Tank India’s Anupam Mittal (Founder of Shaadi.com & People Group) recently shared a bold view on MBAs that every aspiring entrepreneur and professional needs to hear.

👉 He said most MBAs today are outdated — they don’t prepare you for the messy, unpredictable, and fast-changing world of building products or startups.

🔹 Instead of spending 20–30 lakhs on a degree, he suggests learning by building things — whether it’s a product, an AI model, or even designing something small but real.
🔹 If you must pursue an MBA, do it only from a Tier-1 global school — otherwise, the ROI may not justify the cost.
🔹 Real growth, he insists, comes from working in environments with conflicting stakeholders, imperfect data, and constant change — not just case studies in classrooms.

💡 Why This Matters for Founders & Startup Owners

Startups demand adaptability, ex*****on, and resilience — skills honed in the real world, not just theory.

Personal credibility today often comes from what you’ve built and shipped, not the letters after your name.

An MBA can still add value for networking or specialization — but it should amplify your experience, not replace it.

✅ My Take:
An MBA isn’t “bad” — but it’s no longer the default path to success. In 2025 and beyond, building real products, testing ideas, and failing fast will give you sharper skills than any classroom ever could.

So before you write that cheque for an MBA, ask yourself:
👉 Do I need more theory? Or do I need to roll up my sleeves and build something that teaches me faster, cheaper, and more authentically?

Once a salaried employee earning just ₹3,000 a month, today he is the proud founder of Hi Life Exhibitions, a company with an annual turnover of nearly ₹80 crore and a global presence.

New Delhi, September 17, 2025 (FamePublish.com): Success stories often begin with courage—the courage to step away from comfort and chase a dream. For Aby

In 2020, Laddubox was born. The brand was founded by engineer couple Sandeep Jogiparthi and Kavitha Gopu. After working corporate jobs abroad, they returned to India in 2019 with a dream to start something of their own.

Sandeep had a deep love for sweets. But most energy bars and so-called healthy snacks in the market were packed with hidden sugars and artificial ingredients. That’s when the idea of creating healthy, guilt-free laddus took shape — and with just ₹1 lakh, Laddubox was launched.

They started small — setting up stalls in IT companies and fairs. The brand officially launched in May 2020, right in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. But that timing worked in their favor, as people were shifting towards healthier eating habits, and Laddubox received an amazing response.

From just 4 types of laddus, Laddubox now offers 15 varieties. They deliver across India, cater to large B2B orders, and even have their own store in Hyderabad.

Made without sugar, preservatives, artificial colors, or flavors — their laddus helped Laddubox cross a turnover of ₹2 crore in 2022–23. Now, they’re planning to open 100 stores by 2025 across Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, Mumbai, and Delhi NCR.

🚀 : How an ₹99 Idea Turned Into an ₹8 Crore Business with Two Friends

Imagine starting with just ₹99 and building a business that generates crores in turnover. That’s exactly what Atulya Kaushik, along with his two roommates Manish Agrawal and Ashay Mishra, did with their edtech startup PrepInsta.

🔍 The Beginning
Atulya, originally from Meerut, completed his 12th grade at Dayawati Modi Academy, and then earned his B.Tech in Computer Science from VIT Vellore. After stints at companies like Google Pay and fintech startup Instamojo, he saw a gap: students were under-equipped when it came to preparing for placements—missing correct knowledge, guidance, and structured preparation.

To bridge this, in 2019 he started a side venture called mygeekmonkey.com where he sold PDFs of placement tips for ₹99 each. On the very first day, he made ₹299. Over nine months, this venture earned about ₹45 lakh. This early success convinced him to go all-in.

👥 Bringing in the Team
After witnessing that side-business success, Atulya partnered with his old friends Manish Agrawal and Ashay Mishra. Together, they rebranded mygeekmonkey.com as PrepInsta, bought a domain for just ₹99, and formally launched from a small office space in Noida in April 2019.

Resource constraints meant they couldn’t hire big salaries, but they managed to bring on board dedicated people willing to grow with the vision.

💡 Business Model & Growth
Their model was diversified:

They offered free trials to students for 1–2 months, then encouraged them to buy the PrepInsta Prime package, which includes 200+ courses.

They forged direct placement deals with companies: students ready for placement are matched, and in return, PrepInsta takes 5–10% of the annual package the student is offered.

They partnered with colleges so students could subscribe at discounted rates, and the colleges benefit by improving their placement success rate.

In its first 5 years, PrepInsta achieved:

A turnover of ₹8 crore

20+ lakh (2 million) monthly visitors to their website

More than 3 lakh (300,000) students subscribed

Free content accessed by over 75 lakh (7.5 million) people

Some students placed in major companies like TCS, Amazon, and Deloitte

The highest package secured by a student via their platform is reported as ₹1.03 crore.

✨ Takeaway
Atulya believes his family’s background in education helped shape his conviction. But more importantly, his story reminds us: even a small idea, when combined with persistence, focus, and innovation, can grow into something much bigger.

🌱 From ₹9 Profit to ₹2 Crore Revenue: Hariom’s Rural Startup Story 🚜🐄

Meet Hariom Nautiyal — once a web developer in the city, now the founder of a thriving dairy business in his Dehradun village.

Back in 2013, tired of corporate stress and job insecurity, he quit his job and returned home. With just a handful of cows and unshakable determination, he launched Dhanya Dhenu.

💡 The early days? Brutal.
Some days he earned only ₹9 profit, while neighbors mocked his choice. But instead of giving up, he doubled down — building trust with customers by giving them lactometers to test purity themselves.

Instead of endlessly expanding his herd, Hariom chose a different path:
✅ Partnering with local women & farmers
✅ Sourcing milk ethically
✅ Creating livelihoods for 500+ people across 15 villages

Today, Dhanya Dhenu delivers 250+ litres of milk daily and offers curd, paneer, ghee, mawa, pickles, ice creams, candies, and even the traditional drink pallar. The result? A business with an annual turnover of over ₹2 crore.

✨ Hariom’s journey is more than a dairy success story — it’s proof that passion, patience, and purpose can turn rural roots into a powerful movement.

👉 Would you ever leave city life to build something meaningful in your hometown?

🚀 From IT Cubicle to Dairy Empire – The Story of Deepak Raj Tushir 🐄

Most people dream about leaving their 9–5 job to follow their passion. Few actually take the leap.

Deepak Raj Tushir spent 10 years working in IT with a stable job at Wipro. But he realized he didn’t want to spend the rest of his life behind a desk. In 2012, he walked away from the corporate world and took one of the boldest steps of his life—starting a dairy farm in his hometown of Sonipat, Haryana.

What began with just 50 cows (and early setbacks, including disease losses) has now grown into Binsar Farms, a modern dairy business that:
✅ Produces 7,000–8,000 litres of milk daily
✅ Offers premium products like curd, paneer, ghee & lassi
✅ Works with local farmers through contract farming
✅ Achieves an annual turnover of ₹23 crore 🎯

Deepak’s journey proves:

You don’t need an MBA from a top B-school to build a successful business.

You don’t need a glass cabin to be a leader.

What you need is vision, courage, and consistency.

💡 His story is a reminder that success doesn’t always come from the traditional path. Sometimes, the road less taken leads to the biggest victories.

👉 Would you ever quit your job to chase your dream?

💼 When “resignation” isn’t voluntary…

A young woman at Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) recently shared her ordeal online after being pressured by HR to resign. She refused.

👉 For her, TCS was the first company of her career. In her own words, “I was crying and afraid, but I had nothing to lose. So I said, do as you like, but I’m not going to resign.”

Her account highlights how benched employees are being cornered—profiles frozen, projects blocked, and threats of poor reviews or blacklisting being used as pressure tactics. She described the situation as “mental harassment and torture,” adding that many of her colleagues are still resisting similar pressure.

What’s heartbreaking is the contrast: many join TCS for its promise of job security and culture, yet this experience left her saying, “Now I regret it.”

💡 This raises bigger questions for India’s IT industry:

Where does employee dignity stand when cost-cutting begins?

How can HR balance business goals with humane practices?

And how much courage does it take for an employee—especially at the start of her career—to say “no”?

Her story is not just about TCS, it’s about the reality many professionals face across industries today.

Would you have had the courage to deny such forced resignation?

India is tightening its fight against plastic pollution. 🚯
Authorities have announced a ₹15,000 reward for anyone who reports illegal manufacturing of single-use plastic items.

This move is not just about fines and bans—it’s about community participation. When citizens, businesses, and policymakers work together, sustainable change becomes possible. 🌍✨

👉 Do you think monetary incentives are the right way to ensure compliance, or should stricter penalties be the focus?
