Akshayakalpa is known as India's first certified organic dairy enterprise. But in this conversation, Shashi Kumar makes it clear that the deeper story has always been farming.In this episode of the Prime Venture Partners Podcast, Jerome Manuel speaks with Shashi Kumar, Founder & CEO of Akshayakalpa, about building at the farm level for 16 years, far away from the usual startup playbook of fast growth, quick scale and easy metrics.Akshayakalpa began with dairy because farmers needed reliable cash flow. Once that started working, the model expanded into animal care, soil management, manure-making, beekeeping, backyard poultry and diversified farms.Today, Akshayakalpa is a profitable ₹60-crore-a-month business working with 2,800 farmers, including 1,200 women farmers. Last financial year, the average monthly payout to each farming family was ₹1.28 lakh.The conversation explores:• Why Akshayakalpa raised no institutional money for 9 years• Why Shashi refused to sell investors a hypergrowth story• How Nithin Kamath invested ₹5 crore in 5 days during the pandemic• Why 27 people took equity in the company when it was struggling• Why each cluster takes nearly 7 years to build• How 2,800 farmers produce what would conventionally need nearly 100,000 farmers• Why 45,000 customers visited Akshayakalpa farms• Why premium pricing is a value play• What founders can learn from building with patience and truthFor founders building in India, this episode is a reminder that every great company does not have to be built by chasing the fastest story.Some are built by saying the harder thing early, and still finding the right people to believe in it.Episode Timestamps00:00 - Introduction00:38 - What Akshayakalpa is really building02:06 - Why young people are moving away from farming10:17 - Making farming economically viable again15:37 - Scaling through role models, clusters and culture32:16 - Why Akshayakalpa started with dairy39:13 - The first 9 years: struggle, frugality and survival46:02 - Building customer trust through farm visits48:09 - Why premium pricing is a value play51:08 - Organic food and the challenge of fundraising in farming1:15:42 - Investor expectations, Nithin Kamath and long-term capital1:18:10 - What still keeps Shashi up at nightSubscribe to the Prime Venture Partners Podcast for more conversations with founders building enduring companies in India.#AgriCapital #FarmEconomics #FoodSystems
Imagine two graduates getting their first job on the same day.Both are equally smart.Both work equally hard.Both earn roughly the same salary.Fast forward 15 years.One of them becomes financially independent, builds an incredible network, and is sought after by every company in the industry.The other is stuck, worried about layoffs, struggling to get promoted, and wondering where things went wrong.What caused this difference?According to Ashwin DameraHarvard Business School graduate and Founder of Emeritus the answer has very little to do with your first salary and everything to do with the career decisions you make in the years that follow.In fact, Ashwin argues that your first salary can become a ₹3.6 crore trap if it pushes you to optimize for short-term income instead of long-term career capital.In this episode, we break down:• Why so many high-performing professionals feel stuck in their 30s• How AI is changing the rules of career growth• Why networking matters far more than most people realize• The career mistakes that could cost you crores• How to build Career Capital, Brand Capital, and Social Capital• A framework for building a career that compounds for decades.Whether you're a student, a young professional, a manager, or someone worried about staying relevant in the age of AI, this conversation could completely change the way you think about work, wealth, and long-term success.Let's get started.

Everyone thought women needed “safe” razors. Turns out, that was the biggest mistake the industry made.In this episode, Shantanu Deshpande (Founder & CEO, Bombay Shaving Company) breaks down how one insight led to building Bombae, a ₹150 Cr brand in just a few years.From understanding how women actually shave to rejecting the entire “make it pink” playbook, this is a masterclass in building products that truly solve for the user. Not by copying what exists, but by questioning the assumption itself.Shantanu explains how the real gap wasn't safety, but lack of control and feedback, and how designing for that changed everything.What makes this conversation powerful is the clarity: most brands don't fail because of execution, they fail because they solve the wrong problem.What you'll discover: • Why “pink razors” are fundamentally flawed • The real difference between men vs women shaving behaviour • How one insight built a ₹150 Cr brand • Why copying incumbents guarantees failure • The thinking behind designing the Roll BladeCan a brand win just by understanding the user better than everyone else?This episode shows what happens when you stop guessing and start observing.
