MICROMAX – A SUCCESS STORY
Rahul Sharma: Co Founder & CEO (Micromax)
THE IDEA
The greatest inspiration for Micromax to enter the mobile phone manufacturing business came from a chance encounter that Rahul had with a payphone operator who was doing business in an area where there was no electricity and poor network coverage, deep in interior West Bengal.
Rahul quickly identified that the problems being faced by that payphone operator were pretty much the same as those troubling the regular and more affluent customers, i.e., if the phones had to be charged often, there was no point in having them.
Rahul was fascinated by the nature of “Jugaad” (innovative adaptation to suit the difficult conditions)
