Bharat Kalia took the entrepreneurial plunge by quitting his management consultancy iOb to launch Lifelong Online and manufacture mixer grinders. Bharat, who had been using the same home appliances his parents used for around 20-30 years, was convinced the consumer durables sector needed a digital revamp. "In 2015, there was so much development happening in mobiles and TVs, but none in the home appliances and consumer durables space. These legacy categories comprised supremely bulky and non-efficient methods of production and distribution" They sell their products through online marketing thus being able to give a price advantage for their products. Today, the 60-member Lifelong Online team sees Rs 40 crore revenue in the peak months, Bharat claims. Around 33 percent Of the overall sales come from home and kitchen appliances.*
