How has been your journey from being a corporate professional to an entrepreneur?
It has been a great learning experi
ence. I started my career in 2007 when I joined International Coil Ltd. as the Technical Sales Manager. After which, I headed to Dubai to work with a company named Trane, where I was associated with huge global projects. I have spent more than three years in the company, being their sales manager and gaining a lot of insights in the process.
which help me to deliver accurate solutions even today. In 2012, I came back to India with a mission to promote sustainable and renewable energy solutions across organizations and founded Water Foods.
How does Water Foods contribute to a sustainable future?
Water Foods was established with a focus on renewable energy projects. We have sustainably installed and commissioned a range of projects across refrigeration, heat transfer, air-conditioning combined heating & power, and solar energy. Our services are categorized into three divisions. In the Food Division, we have been working on eradicating conventional technologies used for cold storages and installing systems using renewable sources of energy. In the Water Division, we have installed an air cooled fluid cooler which works on the principle of rejecting heat from hot fluid using ambient air directly through heat transfer coils. This is in contrast to the conventional method of cooling using shell & tube heat exchanger and water cooling tower system in which a lot of water is evaporated. In the Energy Division, we are an authorized channel partner with Tata Power Solar and have led powerful projects with them.

Tell us about the awards and recognitions that you have achieved in your professional journey so far.
In 2016, I was awarded as the Entrepreneur of the Year by the Jalandhar Management Association. Later in 2019, I was awarded by the Tata Power Solar as the Game Changer of the Year. In 2020, we(Water Foods) were awarded as the Key Players for achieving the green targets.
What are the developments in this industry that you anticipate as an Indian entrepreneur?
India is highly dependent on China for the production of solar modules. Given the power crisis in China and the trading being shut down due to the pandemic, it has become a great challenge for our businesses to flourish in India. Hence, I believe there should be amendments to encourage more production of solar modules in India and eradicate the dependency of the country on externalities.
