Three friends from Indore, all engineering students, who started their own company in 2000 which delivered letters to Indore residents from their relatives in America have now shaped into software services company for web and mobile applications, reported News18.
They are now on the verge of buying a New-York based IT company.
Sidhharth Sethi, Avinash Sethi and Nitish Vohra graduated from GSITS college in Indore. Nitish’ room became their office when they started their company in 2000, but they never thought they would have an office in Atlanta one day, a report in Dainik Bhaskar said.

They started by launching a website called ApnaIndore.com which provided services to people of Indore who were staying in America. The NRI’s could send their personal e-mails meant for family members to this company which they would then print and deliver to the house address.
Because it was expensive to call family members from America back in 2000, their services became popular in Indore.
Then we expanded our services and started delivering rakhis to the NRI’s relatives in Indore," CEO of Infobeans Sidhharth Sethi said.
The turnover for 1st year was Rs 15 lakhs. Soon they expanded their business and entered mobile app industry. “Today, 95% revenue of the company’s revenue comes from American market. We have 40 active clients, most of them are from America,” Siddharth said, adding it was easy for him to get clients as he had worked with American companies before.
Now, they aim to achieve a turnover of $15,00,000 in the next five years and are also opening an office in Europe soon.
“Our aim is just not to earn money. We also intend in generating employment for the youth in our city,’ Sethi said.
