Not Satisfied with His Corporate Career
Despite a successful corporate career with a monthly salary of Rs 75,000, Abhishek wasn’t happy with his career choice. However, he faced disappointment from his father when he expressed the desire to quit his job. Having no family history of entrepreneurship, his decision to start a tea business was unsettling for his father. Abhishek, a former academic topper, left his job after unsuccessful attempts to secure higher appraisals.
Fueled by a passion for bikes and a Bullet motorcycle, Abhishek observed the tea market and identified an opportunity. In 2022, he initiated his venture by selling tea on his RE Bullet bike along the Delhi-Gurgaon Highway. Despite modest initial sales, Abhishek’s determination and positive outlook led to the growth of his business, earning him the title of the famous “Bullet Chaiwala.”
