Exclusive Interview- Visakh Sasikumar, CEO & Co-founder, Fyn Mobility

In an exclusive interview with Shreyas Webmedia Solutions (SWS) , Mr. Visakh Sasikumar (VS), CEO & Co-founder, Fyn Mobility discussed various aspects such as the company’s vision, prospects of EV Industry, the company’s USP and revenue model and many more .

SWS: When were you founded & What is the product/service you provide?

VS: We started out in 2017 under the name of Pi Beam Electric as an EV OEM and while building EVs for India we noticed that the EV-as-a-service industry was broken. There was a lack of understanding of EVs that led to multiple EV fires and accidents. The logistics industry was still very traditional in its approach with no processes in place or trackability of the fleets and hence giving clients no clarity on their fleets.

We had the solutions as we came from EV Manufacturing as well as Data background. The year 2021 was a gradual progression for Fyn Mobility to step into the Logistics industry with the growing need for deliveries as most of the world came to a halt. With this move we started working on a platform that would give all stakeholders clarity in the process of EV deployments.

We have now successfully stepped into India’s Last-mile logistics & provide EV fleets to businesses that need last-mile connectivity for logistics & commute. We are working towards rede-fyn-ing the logistics industry with the help of our EV know-how, IoT & Technology.

SWS: What is the company’s long and short-term vision?

VS: Fyn mobility aims to be India’s largest EV ecosystem platform for last-mile logistics and commute. This means, seamless operations and real time trackability of our EV fleets that help keep up with deployments and new demands through our internal tech dashboard.

We are expanding our fleet 10X to 2,000 by FY 23 and 10,000 vehicles by 2023-24. Currently, we are present in Bangalore & Chennai and we will be starting operations in Gurgaon & Hyderabad soon.

SWS: Where do you see the EV industry in the next five years?

VS: In the next 5 years we hope to see 100% adoption of EV 2 & 3 wheelers by businesses dealing with deliveries on the Indian roads. Most e-commerce, quick commerce as well as grocery businesses have plans of having 100% electric fleets by 2030. This will not only help in bringing more EVs to the Indian roads but will also give the B2C clientele confidence in the EV ecosystem and help them realise the benefits of electric vehicles in the long run.

As the businesses progress towards a green future, we can see EVs dominating the Indian roads in the next 5 years. A push from the government is also helping this EV ecosystem accelerate. With the government’s support and the businesses promising green fleets, we are spearheading toward our goals much faster than we had anticipated and see a future where there will soon be more EVs on the roads than their ICE counterparts.

SWS: Where did you get inspiration for the Company? How did you go about researching and validating the idea?

VS: Rather than getting inspiration for the company, the company came to us.

With the lock down bringing the world to a pause & everyone becoming immobile for over 4 months, the delivery industry boomed and we were approached by businesses looking for sustainable delivery solutions to help them cater for this need-of-the-hour. We saw a great opportunity here that would help us make a bigger impact towards our long term goal and hence we decided to move from manufacturers to EV-as-a-Service for the last-mile logistics. This helped us understand the last-mile logistics industry closely and identify the loose ends.

SWS: Is the company funded? If yes, how many rounds & how much funding.

VS: Fyn mobility has raised around $3M till date from leading investors such as IPV and participation from prominent family offices such as Sattva Group & Nanavati family, syndicates including Sincere Syndication and Conscience Multi-family Office. Industry stalwarts Arshad Sayyad, Vijay Ratnaparke, Shaji Koshy and professor Ashok Jhunjhunwala have also invested in these rounds.

Our funds have been utilised to develop the deployment platform, expand the team, scale operations to multiple cities and develop new products.

SWS: How does Fyn’s product work & what problems does it solve?

VS: The current logistics industry is very traditional and also has a lot of interdependencies among vendors leading to no transparency in the overall process. We have understood this, and are bringing in a vertically integrated approach through EV fleets that are supported by our tech dashboard, providing us with the visibility to track each step of the deployment process.

Fyn is also addressing the problem of last-mile emissions using IoT, data tracking, and optimal cross-utilisation of its EV fleet to reduce idle time. We are able to give clarity to our clients, similar to what courier tracking services do but for the delivery of EV fleets. With such clarity in place, our clients are able to maximise the utility of these EV fleets leading to higher revenues.

SWS: What is your USP and innovation? How are you different from your competitors?

VS: When we gradually moved our business to the logistics industry, we realised that even the businesses who were adopting EV fleets were facing problems with the EV-as-a-Service ecosystem as this was very new to India.

Safety & trust was a big concern with the recent EV fires. The EV fleets and their deployments were also not timely and scalable as there was a lack of funds and supply issues. Another factor that contributed to this list was the driver churn along with a lot of interdependencies within the system before the fleets were deployed to the clients. Above all, there seemed to be no clarity in these deployments due to lack of data and no clear timelines.

We built our company not only to solve for these issues at hand, but also to create a sustainable EV-ecosystem with the help of our EV know-how, Data and Technology:

We are building a vertically integrated EV Platform connecting stakeholders to make EV deployments frictionless.

We are able to bring quality EV Fleets to the roads with our EV know-how & an internal R&D team that helps in intensive testing of these vehicles before they hit the roads. We are a data driven team and hence bring out smart fleets that are trackable and have automated cross-utilization to maximise the use of each vehicle. With these fleets Fyn Mobility is able to empower their clients with a dashboard that helps them manage, track and plan the deployments of new fleets into their businesses.

SWS: Briefly explain your revenue model?

VS: With EV fleets in the last-mile sector our major revenue comes from last-mile logistics and commute. We are able to provide not only our in-house vehicles but also high speed 2 wheelers and 3 wheelers through our partnerships with some leading names in the Electric industry to our end clients. With our ever expanding fleets and tech enabled operations, we give our customers clarity, timely EV & Driver fleet deliveries and a great deal.

SWS: What difficulties did you encounter when you started the company & how were you impacted by the Covid outbreak?

VS: When we started out with manufacturing of EVs, very few people in India knew and understood the long term benefits of such vehicles. We wanted to bring our Made in India vehicles on the roads to make our country green. While we were working towards introducing EVs as a solution to India’s growing pollution, Covid-19 set in.

With the onset of Covid, the world came to a halt and everyone was subjected to stay at home, there were many problems that arose due to the lockdown. We realised we could solve last-mile connectivity and immediately started working towards the same. We started out with grocery deliveries in gated communities and soon started gaining traction from other businesses that dealt with last-mile deliveries. This led us to the last-mile logistics sector and we soon recognised the opportunity at hand that would allow us to deploy a higher number of EVs faster while helping us realise our goals sooner than we ever anticipated.

SWS: Future product launches?

VS: We are always building or innovating at Fyn Mobility.

Currently our team is working towards building India’s first Fuel Cell 3 wheeler. We are also under the prototyping stages of our in-house EV, PiMO-Premium which is set to redefine the B2B 2-wheeler category in the logistics sector.

While EVs are the future of Indian logistics, charging stations are its backbone. With the growing fleets we need more charging stations and hence are working towards our first vehicle agnostic charging station which should be ready in the coming months.

And finally, after years of formulating, research, and testing, today, Evaana Wellness’s products have been a huge hit among mothers, preteens and teens. All the science-based natural beauty and wellness products are free from harmful and toxic ingredients and are out for everyone to see.

5) What have been some of your failures and what have you learned from them 

Failure the steppingstone to success. At the onset, I got a lot of resistance for my idea to start a beauty and wellness brand, since this is a very niche audience there would need to be a paradigm shift in the thought process and understanding of the consumers and their guardians and considering that this would be a colossal task, I did have a lot of naysayers, though that’s as one says “is history”, I did not let the fire die inside me and fought for my ideas and dreams. We are now live and accessible to anyone and everyone that wants us to partner in the growth & development of their kids.

6) What was the inspiration behind turning an entrepreneur key thing to consider before starting a start-up 

My father has been my rock, my inspiration behind starting my beauty and wellness brand. Being from an entrepreneurial family, I have always looked up to my father in more ways than one, he’s extremely hardworking, self-motivated and truly an inspiration to all around.

There are multiple things to consider before starting a start-up. The most crucial would be to find something that your passionate for, follow that up with some detailed research and market understanding. If possible, do a marketing testing and include the share of voice of your customer in the study and back that up with a watertight financial plan and stick to it. And lastly, there’s no shortcut to success so get to the start line, keep trying and don’t give up.

7)What are some of the biggest mistakes you have made 

My biggest mistake would be underestimating myself and my potential. But from the ideation stage to the launch of Evaana Wellness, I think it was the best time to understand myself and my capabilities which gave me the strength and hope to build a brand as amazing as this.

8) Your success tips for young and aspiring entrepreneurs 

The only advice would be to Never stop and have conviction and belief in yourself. You have the power to create your own destiny. Work hard, take help from others if you need but, but never give up! Remember that opportunity never knocks, it presents itself when you beat down the door.

Exclusive Interview with Ankit Tanna, Founder, Truein…

We at Shreyas Webmedia Solutions (SWS) thank Mr Ankit Tanna, the Founder of Truein, for this interview opportunity. Mr Ankit Tanna (AT) discusses various aspects such as the company’s mission and objectives,  the company’s growth and expansion plans and many more.

Let’s know more about his vision and plans

SWS: What is Truein, and how does it help organizations?

AT: Truein is a face recognition-based Time and Attendance solution for the Contractual and Distributed workforce.

Truein helps organizations plug revenue leakages by eliminating irregularities like buddy punching, wrong clock-ins, overtime calculation errors, reconciliation issues, and more.

Further, Truein reduces late comings and unplanned absenteeism. It also comes with 70+ customizable policies. All of which help increase workforce productivity.

The solution also helps to optimize workforce utilization. Automated shift scheduling, weekly off rotations, job mapping, and analytics features are built to achieve the same.

SWS: What is the objective behind starting Truein?

AT: We started Truein to address the pain areas in Time & Attendance management for contractual and remotely deployed staff.

In the course of my previous venture, I happened to meet several of my customers and their Admin and HR leaders. During discussions, I learned about the pain areas in time and attendance management for contractual and remotely deployed staff.

As most of these staff were temporary and frequently changing, one common problem was registering them for attendance. Sometimes the staff directly reported at the worksite, and admins had to sync records across locations manually. I also noticed that many manual steps were involved in timesheet calculations for payroll. It was tedious and error-prone.

Existing attendance solutions were not centralized and foolproof. The problem is multifold when the staff is distributed across customer sites with different policies for each of these sites.

These problems directly impacted workforce productivity and also caused revenue leakages.

SWS: What are the various solutions you have for enterprises?

AT: Truein offers a face recognition-based Time and Attendance solution.

Truein runs an AI-powered face recognition time and attendance system, which provides practically 100% robust and accurate attendance, even with a mask on or with any changes in facial features. Truein is mobile/tablet-based and comes with geofencing.

Truein is designed specifically for a contractual and distributed workforce and addresses several challenges they face.

It offers centralized controls and a real-time view of multiple sites. It has more than 70+ policies that can be customized as per location or staff category. You can easily manage shifts, OT, late marks, weekly offs, holidays, and more. Truein also generates accurate and transparent payroll-ready reports for payroll processing.

SWS: How will digital transformation and employee management transform enterprises in the next few years?

AT: When it comes to time and attendance management, the move from manual to digital has helped save time and effort, bring about transparency, and improve workforce productivity.

Manual attendance systems have several limitations. Time capture may not always be accurate, staff can forget to check in or out, and buddy punching is common.

Manual attendance also makes it easy for employees to take leaves without proper documentation, and reconciliation is difficult each month end, leading to revenue loss for the organization.

A digital time and attendance system like that of Truein will genuinely transform the way your organization functions.

Truein is touchless and enables contactless compliance entry. It provides accurate attendance capture, prevents buddy punching, and automates OT, shift changes, weekly offs, etc.

Further, it simplifies the onboarding process, a significant problem faced by organizations with contractual staff.

With Truein, the attendance process is streamlined, which brings about better control, optimum workforce utilization, and increased staff productivity. In addition, an automated system reduces the chances of human errors and brings about transparency and ease of operation.

SWS: How many employees are working with Truein, and what ethics do you have for your employees?

AT: We are currently a team of 25 full-time employees and have a few consultants and freelancers working with us.

SWS: Why is time management core for businesses?

AT: Time management is a priority for all businesses, regardless of size or structure. When a business practices good time management, follows processes and uses appropriate tools, it can consistently boost workforce productivity.

Time management is not just about compliance. Instead, it is directly linked to workforce productivity.

Especially when it comes to staff working in multiple or distributed locations, accurate time and attendance are a challenge.

Truein helps bring transparency and make informed business decisions, which further brings about better workforce planning and optimized workforce utilization.

SWS: Could you please share your thoughts on your future plans and expansions?

AT: We plan to increase the reach of Truein globally and help solve Time and Attendance challenges for enterprises dealing with low or mid-skill workforce.

SWS: Can you let budding entrepreneurs know about your initial challenges as the Founder and CEO of Truein?

AT: I realized it is tough to build a core team to work with you. Achieving product market fit is another challenge. Also, it is important to keep the focus on the product roadmap as per your ideal customer profile.

SWS: What is your message to the youth and our readers?

AT: Think for the long term but keep an eye on small intermediate milestones. A deep understanding of your target market and customer profiles will help in keeping your product roadmap in the right direction.

Don’t hesitate to seek help from people around you when stuck with any problem. More often than not, people are willing to help in some way. On a personal front, having a close group of friends helps me handle difficult situations and failures.

Exclusive Interview with Mr. Mohit Bhagchandani, Founder & MD – 7InkBrews

“7Ink is for dreamers and for people who have stars in their eyes, grit in their teeth, and determination in their hearts” – Mr. Mohit Bhagchandani, Founder & MD – 7InkBrews

We at Shreyas WebMedia Solutions (SWS) thank Mr. Mohit Bhagchandani (MB), for the exclusive interview opportunity. Let’s know more about his success story and his vision. –Editorial Team SWS

SWS: Please tell us about yourself and your journey so far of being Founder, 7Ink  Brews, and Copter7.

MB: I began my career in sports management in the early 2000s. Thereafter, I also lead the sports marketing divisions at various agencies. However, somewhere along the way, I was inclined toward merging my two lines of interest: sport and building brands. Launching a commercial beer brand during the pandemic was indeed risky. 3 years ago, the idea of launching our range of commercial Lager beers seemed far-fetched. In the beginning, my ambitions and determination towards accomplishing my goals were certainly dismissed and frowned upon. According to me, however, the power of resilience, persistence, and instinct lies in walking the path that makes a compelling difference. 

SWS: How has the brand become a synonym for sports?

Sports is engraved in our DNA, making it our main objective. We firmly believe in the power of making the right decisions that lead to success and which also advocate planning, strategy, and learning from failure to achieve our objectives. For most of us, watching sports and enjoying a beer is second nature. As beer tops the list of preferred drinks. Copter7 is the first brand to have embodied the DNA of a legend and build the brand ethos around it. 

SWS: What inspired you to set up 7Ink Brews, Copter7, and the reason behind this Name? 

MB:7Ink Brews cultivates the same kind of emotion and fervor in consumers that sport evokes in sports lovers across the world. The brand gets its name from MS Dhoni’s iconic Helicopter Shot and 7, his Jersey number. It is a beautiful fit and makes our brand story quite unique. 7Ink is for dreamers and for people who have stars in their eyes, grit in their teeth, and determination in their hearts. It’s for the person who pushes themselves to new heights, redefines their boundaries and proves the naysayers wrong. They may trip and fall. They do, however, get back up and chase. This one is for the winners. This one’s for You.

SWS: What were the challenges you faced to set up the brand as it was launched amidst the pandemic?

MB: One of the biggest challenges for any start-up is awareness and reach. While the beer industry in India is evolving, it is extremely competitive and has its own set of regulations as well. Starting from scratch is always difficult and a brand of this magnitude also has its own set of challenges. The pandemic led to tremendous delays and operational challenges which in turn created market uncertainty. There was a huge impact on our launch plans. Our production cycles went for a toss. Despite the odds, we are focusing on the opportunities. We are marching ahead and are certain that the effort will eventually bear the desired results. 

SWS: How has Dhoni’s association, both in product likeness and as a shareholder and ambassador of Copter7, helped the brand?

MB: The planning of this brand has taken over three years. MSD has been involved since inception and it was the synergy between the vision and the thought process that made him believe in what we stand for. It takes a lot of effort and investment to indulge in brand awareness and brand reach. With an ambassador like MS Dhoni, his tremendous fan base has helped us overcome certain barriers, and the differentiation of the brand being built around the icon only adds to that. It has also translated into brand integrity and promise.

SWS: What exactly is deathcare, and how did Last Journey come into being? What was the thought? 

RJ: The death care industry includes companies and organizations that provide services related to death: funerals, cremation or burial, memorials, etc. India’s death care industry has been under unorganized players for the longest time, making it highly fragmented. The inception of Last Journey was with the mission to revolutionize the Indian deathcare market by establishing an organized structure so mourning families can grieve in solace without worrying about the arrangements. By taking things online and integrating them seamlessly with a robust network of vendors, Last Journey has optimally streamlined operations with the end goal of serving people.

SWS: How prevalent are deathcare and organized funeral services across western countries?

RJ: The U.S. funeral services industry includes nearly 20,000 different establishments that generate about $16 billion in revenue annually, and the industry is as old as the 18th Century. Countries like the US, France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Finland, Australia, and New Zealand have the most evolved deathcare infrastructure. Their thought process of bidding a memorable farewell to their loved ones and embracing the eventuality of life has propelled this industry to grow in their society.

SWS: How mature is the Indian market compared to the rest of the world regarding understanding how deathcare works?

RJ: Indians are neither aloof nor foreign to the idea of organized deathcare and funerals. Ancient Indian civilization has been practicing this, but with Last Journey, we are giving this old concept a new way to reach the masses. Spreading awareness among people about how deathcare works and the availability of such services is critical, so they know whom to reach out to at the time of need. The industry in India is currently at a nascent stage; the future of India’s Death Care holds excellent growth potential but requires spreading awareness among people on a vast scale. Currently, the industry stands at just over USD 3.5 billion in India, which is a long way from USD 0.98 billion back in 2008.

SWS: What is the solution that Last Journey offers, and how is it different from other players in the market?

RJ: We are a one-stop solution for deathcare and funeral services; from a mortuary ambulance to the repatriation of the mortal remains, cremations, and prayer meeting organizing, we take care of everything. People find it challenging to overcome the loss of a loved one, so we provide dedicated counseling services through certified mental health experts. At Last Journey, we understand that our beloved pets are also our family, and hence for them, we have Pet Cremations. We differentiate ourselves from other players in the market across various aspects; in addition to cremations, we do funeral ceremonies, prayer meeting arrangements, and funeral decor, among a host of other services. Since it is a compassionate business, we have established a robust and standardized vendor management network, resulting in smooth operations.

SWS: What contribution have you made to the industry?

RJ: Our primary contribution has been giving the Indian deathcare industry a digital reboot by taking things online, which has increased awareness about death literacy and the availability of such services so that people can make informed decisions at the time of need. We have set up a standardized mechanism to assimilate the elements of this industry, which for the longest time were controlled by unorganized entities.

SWS: How has the market evolved over the past couple of years? What are the trends that you’ve seen in the market?

RJ: This market in India has picked up and made promising progress over the years; today the Indian deathcare market stands at around USD 3.5 billion, which compared to USD 0.98 billion in 2008, shows significant improvement, but it is still at a very nascent stage. With the influx of other tech-enabled private players in this space, this space can witness multifold growth. Key trends in this market have been and will continue to be sustainable funeral practices and the emergence of funeral e-commerce. The concept of pre-planning funerals has also taken up speed among Indians, giving people a sense of empowerment for being able to design their last journey and how they wish their farewell.

SWS: How is digitization shaping the deathcare and funeral service market?

RJ: The new frontier of deathcare and funeral services in India is being shaped in a much more structured way. Primarily, through digitization, the propagation of death literacy and awareness of organized funeral services has increased. Taking things online is just a portion of digitally rebooting this space; on the company’s side, vendor management becomes much easier when tech is applied within the organization. On the part of the customers, booking cremation grounds and prayer halls or just arranging other things becomes more accessible.

The absence of such convenience could be felt starkly during the covid-19 pandemic, where families could not get a place to perform the last rites; in many cases, cremation grounds were overbooked, pandits unavailable, and mortal remains were left stranded. With tech-enabled machinery to streamline and organize, such cases are now easily avoidable.

SWS: Can you elaborate on some sustainable cremation practices that Last Journey undertakes?

RJ: In the wake of India’s vision to become a more carbon neutral and eco-friendly nation, the practice of sustainable funerals have become quite popular. Owing to this, Last Journey is apart from the usual wood-fire pyre used for cremations, and Last Journey also provides electric cremation and pyres that are made of cow dung. Recently, Last Journey has also started a campaign – #LifeAfterLife wherein we plant a tree for every cremation we do and give the coordinates of that tree to the deceased’s family.

SWS: Where do you position yourself in the next three years?

RJ: We want to sail our growth across multiple channels and become one of the most accessible entities when it comes to deathcare and funeral services in India. From uplifting the funeral infrastructure through private crematoriums and establishing a network that expands internationally so people can also avail of our services across countries.

SWS: How much has your business grown over the past couple of years? How has the journey been so far?

RJ: Last Journey has been growing at a CAGR of 40% and this growth is fueled by technology along with networking resources. In the past financial year i.e., FY 2021-2022; we have served 4-5 thousand cases in Bangalore; 7-8 thousand in Delhi; 3-4 thousand in Mumbai; and 3-4 thousand in Hyderabad. Other cities such as Chennai, Indore, Dehradun, Pune, Rishikesh, Ahmedabad, and Lucknow have accounted for over 7-8 thousand cases. Last Journey started with a small team of just five people and today we have over 100+ employees across India and twenty-five certified vendors that enable our mechanism to flow smoothly.

The major learning for us has been that to bring about a change and revolutionize an industry, persistence is the key. It is through persistence that one can drive their morale and bring implement strategies that garner sizable results.

Exclusive Interview with Mr. Lokesh Harjani, Founder & CEO, OnSpot Solutions

-Editorial Team SWS

We at Shreyas WebMedia Solutions (SWS) thank Mr. Lokesh Harjani, Founder & CEO, Onspot Solutions Pvt. Ltd. (OnSpot) for the exclusive interview opportunity. Mr. Lokesh Harjani, (LH) discussed various aspects such as OnSpot’s dynamic real-time verification technology and the company’s potential growth and expansion plans and many more.

Let’s know more about his success story and his vision.

SWS: Can you tell us more about on-the-spot solutions and the many sectors you work in?

LH: Onspot is a Brand to Consumer Engagement platform that is a Cloud-based Digital Solution, which allows a brand to engage with its consumer at various levels. Beginning with a simple scan of the unique Onspot QR code on a product, a consumer can first check the authenticity of the brand and be given product information such as manufactured date, MSRP and other pertinent information of a product. With a single touch, consumers can then provide feedback and suggestions on products. Depending on the types of products, brands can engage with consumers directly to provide warranty certification; offer helpful tips or recipes. They can also provide sustainability aspects and goals of the brand along with many other dedicated features as per the industry. All of this, while the consumer receives loyalty points and rewards.

For brands, Onspot provides a bird’s eye view of the supply and distribution chain from the point of manufacture through intermediaries to the point of sale. With each product individually coded, brands can ascertain any hiccups in the travelling lifecycle of the product, as scans occur at each stage of the chain.

SWS: Any particular reason for stepping into so many different industries?

LH: A consumer engagement platform is a need for every brand. No matter which industry or sector, one might belong to; our cloud-based digital solution is helpful to everyone. So, our strategy was never to be contained to any one industry. We take our services to everyone. Onspot has witnessed considerable growth in several industries for its patented protection platform, including medicine, particularly during the pandemic. Pharmaceutical firms that rely on Onspot are expanding their brand portfolios to include Onspot’s “track, trend, and trust” offerings. Other firms have reached out to learn how to adapt Onspot’s solutions across industries.

SWS: What aspects, in your opinion, led to the company’s growth even throughout the pandemic?

LH:The pandemic actually, in many ways paved the way for the company’s growth. In 2020, the global pandemic and the rise of e-commerce sales led to an increase in fake goods across industries. For example, in the cosmetics and personal care sector, there are reports of a 56% increase in counterfeit products sold via online channels. More seriously, fears over shortages of medicines, pharmaceuticals – and now vaccines – in many regions have led to greater penetration of counterfeit goods, against which consumers need protection. This increases the use of anti-counterfeiting solutions; track and trace schemes among brands. The need for a solution provider like us, automatically increased.

In fact, we have welcomed clients across industries, to come on board and brands such as Gulf Oil, Sanofi, Laser India Pvt. Ltd, Halonix Technologies Pvt. Ltd, K-18 (an international hair Product company) have recently joined hands with us to devise personalized tech solutions. We are seeing that market leaders in most segments are adopting this technology.

SWS: What can you tell us about India’s first dynamic real-time verification technology?

LH:Onspot’s product authentication and the anti-counterfeiting system work with current barcodes and packaging, with minimal tweaks or add-ons such as QR codes and other types of overt and covert tracking measures, depending on the amount of tracking required. It avoids the need for significant adjustments to a brand’s existing production manner. The technology is built around a simple smartphone app that enables product verification from anywhere in the supply chain. It also provides a flexible system that allows for individual customization and security improvements in response to the danger posed by counterfeiters.

Onspot offers a multitude of security solutions for each stage of the supply and distribution chain of a brand. A multi-tiered level of security comprising of QR codes, tamper-resistant labels or in certain circumstances, RFID or other tracking beacon grants an opportunity to monitor the patterns of product movement from a factory or distributor down the chain. Further, more covert security features such as nano-sized taggants or invisible ink, coupled with optic filters within the technology add to the security offering. The platform is active at each stage of the product lifecycle providing check and risk assessments along the way to the point of consumer scan to verify the product. This is what makes it India’s first dynamic real-time verification technology.

SWS: Would you be able to provide some light on the importance of developing a brand protection plan for both brands and consumers?

LH:Sure! As the world prepares to shift to a post-pandemic future, companies must keenly take the responsibility of protecting their brands and consumers. It will be an evolutionary and global process to make the world more aware that they finally can act on the adage, “Buyer Beware,” through the simple use of a mobile phone. As many consumers are not fully up to date on the nitty-gritty of emerging digital solutions, brands and governments face the challenge of consumer education and the adoption of safe technologies. As a result, customers will adopt to protect themselves and their hard-earned money from the dubious grey market. There is an upside for consumers beyond being protected. Loyalty and rewards, product information, helpful tips, recipes, warranties, coupons and a direct feedback link to a brand are a few of the perks that Onspot offers post the level of initial security. This helps consumers from being fooled by counterfeit products. Onspot offers a full approach for companies, consumers and government agencies to build great synergy while protecting and benefitting every interest. That’s why we say, “Track, Trend, Trust”.

SWS: How would you summarize On Spot’s experience in India?

LH: On Spot has seen substantial growth in almost every industry that we have entered, in India. Since the need for battling counterfeiting and monitoring the supply chain grew more in India, Onspot has witnessed considerable growth in several industries for its patented protection platform, including medicine, particularly during the Covid period. Many firms have reached out to learn how to adapt Onspot’s solutions across industries.

SWS: Can you tell us about the revolutionary patented technology in the United States and India, and how it is assisting clients?

LH: Yes. Our Cloud-based technology bears patents in the USA and India and empowers the end-user to verify the genuineness of a product in real-time. Employing advanced, real-time and user-friendly technologies, end consumers, as well as the parent brand can verify the authenticity of the product at the point of purchase. The patented technology provides brands with complete protection against counterfeiting without any extra overheads. Apart from Anti-counterfeiting solutions that build consumer confidence, the platform also includes a Marketing suite for personalized consumer re-engagement and a Data collection engine to capture the events in the product journey and consumer-product interaction. The patented technology puts it at the helm of its supply chain, in the know of every product’s schedule, so that problems can be resolved, and changes can be implemented based on the information that is made available.

SWS: What do you think India’s future will look like with all of the technological advancements?

LH: India is driving on the road of growth already with the advancements in technology. The expanding economy of India is propelling growth in local demand and stringent steps are being taken to fast forward the implementation of new technologies. India is already strategising, implementing and executing next-generation tech like Artificial Intelligence, Smart Cities, Blockchain, Internet of Things in many sectors. With more technological advancements, every industry will collectively start to work efficiently with lesser wastage of resources, and this will lead to exponential economic growth. Cloud-based digital platforms like ours are in high demand, and both companies and consumers are aware of this. We see high growth in the Cloud-based Digital Security space, with everyone in the value chain benefitting.

SWS: What are your expansion and growth plans for the future?

LH: OnSpot currently works with over 20 enterprises and several large global clients across India and newly added foreign brands. The company has registered much growth during the pandemic with brands across segments seeking to have more end-consumer outreach. Onspot is building up its team and offerings and looking at expanding operations Pan India with potential international outposts.

As part of its expansion and future goals, OnSpot Solutions shall focus on aggressive core product expansion, research and development, talent acquisition, and a comprehensive suite of products for all business segments with a focus specifically on the Pharma, FMCG industries, electrical and automotive (lubricants and spares), segments. The company envisions much growth in this active segment and truly looks to bridge the gap between brand and consumer. It seems not just the need of the hour, but a long-term business and living approach for brands and individuals alike.

Celcius, India’s leading cold-chain aggregator is disrupting the logistics market with new innovations

Amid the massive disruption in the logistics sector over the last two years, India witnessed increased demand for cold-chain logistics infrastructure. The Indian cold-chain market stood at $420 billion in 2022. It was at a time when the country’s cold-chain infrastructure needed a major revamp that Navi Mumbai-based cold-chain marketplace startup Celcius was launched in November 2020. The company is working to strengthen the cold-chain infrastructure in India. Founded by Swarup Bose, Rajneesh Raman, and Arbind Jain, Celcius is one of the leading aggregators that connects clients with cold-chain transportation and warehousing service providers. Over the last two years, Celcius has expanded its reach across 300 cities with 3,500 vehicles and 107 cold-storage facilities. In an interview with Swarup Bose, Founder and CEO of Celcius, he talks about the company’s vision and its goal to scale up operations in the future.

1. Kindly brief us about Celcius and what are the services it offers to its clients?

Celcius is a cold chain solution platform providing the complete array of digital services. With a nation-wide presence in India, our platform aggregates transporters, vendors, warehousing facilities and suppliers from across the country for maximum utilization of cold chain resources.

The cold chain infrastructure for several temperature-sensitive goods, including vegetable and fruits, is in an abysmal state in India, with almost 30%–40% of these perishables being wasted. The F&B sector still largely depends on non-temperature controlled vehicles for transportation of their commodities. This is, to a large extent, due to the limited asset availability within the cold chain sector.

From transporters, to cold chain storages, to last mile delivery, Celcius has a huge presence in the F&B industry. We have customers across the dairy, frozen goods, fruits, vegetables, seafood and meat industries. Our software platform allows shippers, transporters and cold storage owners to coordinate in real-time, book assets, make payments and track and monitor their consignments.

2. What is Celcius’ business model?

We started Celcius at the height of the lockdown in 2020 when the entire country was shut down. It was imperative that transportation of essential commodities would be of high priority during these times. Moreover, the need for an effective cold chain solution would only increase once the vaccines started rolling out. We realised that creating a nationwide cold chain network was the need of the hour since the cold chain facilities available were scarce. Our modus operandi was to create an asset-light SaaS-based platform that would help cold chain entities collaborate regardless of their bandwidth. This meant that even smaller shippers and transporters would be able to use our platform to assist larger manufacturers. We check storage units of shippers and fleets of transporters for GDP compliance and if they do not meet the needs, we help them install technological devices that would get them the clearance. Celcius has seen tremendous growth in the past year. We have gone from operating in Mumbai to operating in 90 cities across India, and from only connecting the major hubs in metro cities to tier 2 and 3 cities.

3. Tell us about the cold chain market scenario (competitors in India and worldwide).

The concept of a cold chain marketplace is unique in India. Celcius is the first to market a platform that aggregates the various entities involved with the cold chain. Our software provides an end-to-end solution from monitoring the entire network, installing the latest IoT devices in vehicles and penetrating the market up to tier 3 cities. This enabled us to increase our presence across 90 cities in India in a short span of time. We were prepared for the challenge of transporting not just vaccines but essential commodities including fresh produce and frozen products across India during the lockdown. In the US, a couple of firms work on a similar model like ours, concentrating on the perishable cargo segment, but we believe having a model like this across the globe will eventually lead to an interconnectivity of networks that will span across continents. The better the cold chain network, the more we can arrest the wastage of agricultural produce, medicines and vaccines.

4. What are your most recent product innovations?

We recently launched an Android application for drivers. The app enables drivers to have access to the live location of loading and unloading. It is linked directly to our main system, where we book and execute the entire trip from start to finish. Through this app, the drivers can also report the status of their trip. For instance, once they unload the vehicle, they can upload POD (Proof of Delivery) directly to our system. Processes like driver trip settlement and payment of expenses can also be carried out seamlessly. The app is presently available in English but we are developing a counterpart in Hindi and we will also add other regional languages in the future.

5. How has Celcius app and web-based platform helped shippers and transporters smoothen their business?

Celcius’ SaaS-based platform provides a marketplace for cold chain services and consignments. We onboard cold chain product manufacturers/retailers, transporters, shippers and storage companies onto our platform. Our AI-backed system then segregates the data and enables seamless collaboration amongst the cold chain entities. This presents transporters and shippers with the ability to reach out to retailers or manufacturers on their own accord. This system of interconnectedness also allows budding entrepreneurs in the transportation sector to work on consignments across the country and expand their reach. Celcius also supports warehouse owners, transporters, and shippers by helping them meet GDP compliance and upgrading their cold chain technology to match the industry standards.
