In two months, they had started selling on online marketplaces like Flipkart, Amazon, Voonik and Paytm, and launched their own e-commerce website.

They said, “We started with 10 orders a day on our website. By the eighth semester, we were doing customised T-shirts by collaborating with more than 100 colleges across the country, including IITs and IIMs,” Sindhuja recollects.

The startup has grown to around 1,000 orders a day, and has generated an impressive GMV of Rs 20 crore with zero VC funding.
