Ritnika Nayan (26)
CEO, Music Gets Me High (MGMH), a Music Management Company.
Seed capital-Rs 60,000. Current turnover-Rs 25 lakh
She keeps in good company. There is Rolling Stones on the table and Three Doors Down and Counting Crows among others on the wall. It is technically her work space, where she spends more than twelve hours daily. But Nayan is having so much fun in office that it hardly seems like one. A music business manage­ment graduate from Westminster University, she has one motto in her professional life-to make a band a brand. Music manage­ment is a field which is still relatively unexplored in India. "Here, people still do not understand the difference between a booking agent and a manger," she says. But this freshness is her selling point. As a manager, she intends to be a one stop shop for her bands. She has dealt with bands such as Jalebi Cartel, Advaita, Sajid Akbar, and Parikrama. She intends to give them ample global exposure and make them an international name.
She started MGMH in 2007 with only a website. Only once the money started flowing in did she acquire an office and some staff. She also faced her share of sexism. "You come across people who think you are incompetent just because you are a girl. In such situations just start talking and show them that you know more than them." she quips. The other valuable lesson she learnt was to to be hi~h on passion. There would be days when the going would get extremely tough and only passion and perhaps some cash making survival schemes would keep one afloat.

Sahil Parikh (28)
Founder, Deskaway that tracks People, Projects and Businesses
Seed capital-Rs 20 lakh. Current turnover-around Rs 40 lakh
This University of Carolina mathematical science graduate start­ed Deskaway because he wanted to change India's perception of being a low cost service country that was incapable of building a quality product unless directed from abroad. With a knack for founding new things, he started with an entrepreneurship society in his university following this up with his own web design and development consultancy in 2002 called Synage and finally, Deskaway. The big challenge came when he made the switch from a software service business to a product business. While a service business starts earning from day one, a product requires time, effort and money and is slow in revenue generation. Yet, he believes that if thought out correctly, getting off the ground with one's own funds is the best way to grow a business organically. The best part of being an entrepreneur was playing by one's own rules. His mantra-focus on the core value proposition and drive that through to your customer. Be willing to change course if needed. Ask yourself, why you want to start a new venture? Is it just money or a higher purpose? Do not hire experts-its a joy in helping a developer learn new things to create a win-win situa­tion. Build a small, motivated team, keep things simple, stay focused, use less capital-intensive methods, outsource what is not core and monitor everything on a daily basis

After this, people began regarding him as a financial wizard. Prior to parting ways with his brother Mr. Mukesh Ambani, they together steered the group to its towering status as India's leading textiles, petroleum, petrochemicals, power. and telecom company.

Mr. Ambani is the Chairman of Board of Governors of DA-IICl Gandhinagar and a member of the Board of Governors of the IIT-Kanpur. He is also a member of the Board of Governors of IIM-Ahmedabad.
