Prakash is a first generation
entrepreneur who decided to start a
business without any working
experience. When he started his
software business 19 years ago, the
fledgling industry’s focus was on
drumming up the business abroad
while largely overlooking the Indian
Government as a potential customer.
While describing his journey, he says,
“For me, wealth is a combination of
Leadership + Credibility + Profits. I
consider values such as Truth,
Accountability, Gratitude, Integrity and
Family of utmost importance while
doing my business. I believe if a
person cannot stand for anything in
business, in life then he/she carries a
risk of falling for everything. I have
realized the importance of knowing
what I don’t know and continually
strive to learn. As in June 2017, from
the past 17 years (post listing on BSE),
our market capitalization has grown
over 140 times and employee strength
has grown 130 times.”
