Description
Most people spend their 50s consolidating. Rajul Gandhi spent hers starting from scratch.
She saw something the market was comfortable ignoring — 2.3 lakh workplace accidents every year, many of them preventable, and an industry happy to sell cheap, non-compliant gear and call it safety.
So at 52, she built Raga Plus Private Limited. Industrial safety products that actually comply. Because in this business, the difference between right and wrong isn't quality — it's someone going home at the end of the day.
With #YourFirstStory, we keep discovering that the founders who don't fit the mould are often the ones building what actually matters.
The next great Indian company could be starting right now — in the most unexpected place, by the most unexpected person.
