Business
Aadit Palicha founded Zepto along with his childhood friend Kaivalya Vohra. Zepto is an instant delivery service that in its first year gained a valuation of Rs 7400 crore.
Aadit was born in 2001 in Mumbai. He always had an interest in entrepreneurship and started his first business GoPool when he was 17.
Aadit went to Standford University to study computer science. However, the COVID-19 pandemic hit and he chose to drop out and start a business in India with his friend Kaivalya.
The duo started KiranaKart, but it failed due to a lack of traction. However, they did not stop and launched Zepto in 2021, and after several setbacks, the business got investors.
Zepto's success made both the young founders millionaires in no time. In 2023, the company was valued at Rs 11000 crore, or $1.4 billion. Aadit has a net worth of Rs 1200 crore.
