1.Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal: Flipkart Internet Pvt. Ltd.
Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal are the co-founders of Flipkart. It is India’s largest e-commerce company. They both hail from Chandigarh. They were former colleagues at Amazon. The duo quit their jobs in 2007 at Amazon to work on their venture. They launched Flipkart in 2007.
The company faced many challenges initially. In the initial days, doing business using the Internet was not popular. Vendors and customers both lacked trust. So vendors were highly skeptical of onboarding to Flipkart. But both the co-founders maintained perseverance and managed to convince a few vendors to take a chance on them. That’s how Flipkart launched its website. Eventually, it expanded into various categories of products. This includes electronics, fashion, and home appliances. It became the go-to platform for online shopping in India. The company also acquired several other businesses. This includes Myntra and PhonePe to strengthen its position in the market.
