Sourabh started his entrepreneurial journey in 2004 with the launch of JiGrahak Mobility from his apartment room. Prior to that, he worked with the mobile networks division of Lucent Technologies in India.
Sourabh comes from a middle-class business family and has always had an inherent interest in seeing how the business was run. Sourabh was active even in high school, handling different aspects of his family's commodities trading business and setting up a garment manufacturing unit.
Sourabh joined Lucent Technologies after receiving his computer science degree from the Delhi Institute of Technology. While at Lucent, he sensed a big opportunity unfolding in the mobile data domain. With a small core team, he spent the next few years building the mobile data services platform that would enable JiGrahak to launch ngpay, the brand name for the India's first - and fastest-growing - mobile commerce service.
ngpay was launched to the mass market in February 2008 and offers mobile commerce & banking services from a fast-growing network of merchants, banks, and service providers. In less than 3 months, ngpay crossed 100,000 registered users and had already become the leading mobile channel for Indian Railways, Fame Cinemas, and HDFC Bank. ngpay has been recognized as one of the "2009 Technology Pioneers" by the World Economic Forum, "Top 15 Innovators in Asia" by GSMA, "100 Most-Promising Private Ventures in Asia" by Red Herring, "Top Ten Companies to Watch" by the Economic Times & Business Today, one of the "Most Innovative Technologies in India" by Microsoft, and one of the "Top 100 IT Innovators" in India by NASSCOM.
Sourabh strongly believes in the India opportunity. Not only does he believe that India has a huge market potential in itself, he is equally convinced about the potential for Indian enterprises and entrepreneurs to build products and services with that will be global leaders in their sectors.
Kanwal Singh, Managing Partner of Helion Venture Partners - "When we first met Sourabh, we saw a great market opportunity with no market leader, very compelling technology, and, most importantly, a charismatic entrepreneur with a very clear vision of what company and service he wanted to build. In the last two years, the company has come a long way. There are few companies that have been able to achieve the traction and impact that JiGrahak has in such a short period of time."
