Torchit Electronics Pvt. Ltd

Hunny Bhagchandani is one of Shark Tank India Season 1's most compelling social entrepreneurs — a first-generation entrepreneur from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, who built a deeptech assistive technology company not from personal disability experience, but from a moment of humility and commitment during an internship at an NGO serving the visually impaired community. Motivated by a desire to make a tangible difference, Hunny turned to his mentor at the NGO — a remarkable individual who happened to be visually impaired themselves. He shared with Hunny the disappointing truth that many interns before him had expressed grand plans of developing a solution, only to fall short on commitment and follow-through. Determined to break this cycle, Hunny resolved to turn his vision into reality.
