Today, I complete 3 years of my entrepreneurial journey with @partners_primus. It has been a wonderful journey with a bunch of amazing co-founders and colleagues.
It has been a roller coaster ride with ups and downs, but extremely fulfilling. We started off during uncertain times plagued with the pandemic, but that enabled us to innovate, be agile and always be prepared for anything that crops up. From a humble beginning we now have 6 offices, a whole gamut of marque clients in private and public sector and nearly 200 employees. We are today working in 12+ States in India, as well as executing projects abroad.
Grateful to everyone, including clients and employees, who believed in us. Thankful for every opportunity that we got, as well as the ones which eluded us as it gave us immense learnings. As we move to another year, only thing in my mind is gratitude for everything that has happened so far and unwavering passion and commitment to do more. I strongly believe the time for Indian firms have come. The next few decades belong to India and I remain very optimistic about the future of the Indian consulting industry and our firm.
Here is the Mumbai team together (many missing, as they were away for client meetings and project work) for a lunch on 31st March to remember the year gone by and prepare for the next year.

At Primus Partners, we believe that some of the purest forms of love, strength, and sacrifice come from mothers and mother figures โ the ones who shape our lives quietly, selflessly, and unconditionally.
While every day belongs to them, this Motherโs Day gives us a chance to pause and truly cherish the women whose endless support, warmth, and belief become the foundation of who we are.
To every mother and mother figure โ Thank you for being our first home, our constant strength, and the heart behind every dream we dare to pursue.

Indiaโs LPG challenge is more than a short-term disruption - itโs a wake-up call for building a stronger, future-ready energy system.
In the latest Primus POV, Davinder Sandhu highlights the need to move beyond fuel substitution and towards an integrated, resilient energy ecosystem powered by domestic solutions, robust infrastructure, and a diversified energy mix.
As global uncertainties persist, strengthening energy security through innovation and efficiency will be key to long-term stability.

In a recent opinion piece for @NewIndianXpress , Davinder Sandhu highlights a critical dimension in Indiaโs efforts to build a domestic rare-earth magnet ecosystem.
The article brings out how policy momentum can be strengthened through the State playing a more active role in risk-sharing - ensuring supply security, enabling demand visibility, managing price volatility, and building long-term industrial capabilities. A coordinated, mission-mode approach across the value chain will be key to translating ambition into the reliable availability of India-made permanent magnets at scale.

He emphasized that discussions must translate into visible action โ showcasing on-ground initiatives, conducting workshops on water conservation, seasonal and perennial gardening, kitchen gardens, and promoting community-led green education.
At Primus Partners, we believe sustainable urban development thrives when policy, participation, and purpose come together. Conversations like these reinforce the need to build not just infrastructure, but informed and engaged green communities.

The conversation highlighted the reforms that unlocked Indiaโs highway expansion, the role of integrated planning in reducing logistics costs, and the growing emphasis on sustainability through circular construction practices and low-carbon materials. The dialogue also covered future-ready initiatives such as barrier-free highways, technology-enabled tolling, and planned decongestion of Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities through scientific urban road development.
Together, the session reinforced the idea that infrastructure is not just about connectivity, but about driving economic growth, competitiveness, safety, and environmental responsibility.

A key insight from the discussion was the importance of grounding development in respect for ecological systems, local communities, and public consensus. As Mr. Davinder Sandhu articulated, sustainable urban projects must be shaped through meaningful community participation: when local stakeholders are engaged in the design and decision-making process, environmental sustainability becomes more durable and contextually informed.

What emerged was a powerful reminder: climate action often begins in homes, streets, and informal networks โ long before it reaches boardrooms. The discussion highlighted when communities are equipped with skills, digital tools, and a sense of ownership, adaptation becomes practical, scalable, and sustainable.
The central takeaway was clear: climate solutions cannot be imposed from the outside. They must be rooted in local realities, led by local communities, and designed to create lasting value.

At the end of the day, the future of India hinges not on slogans or headlines, but on how innovation reaches middle India and small businesses, how people participate in the AI-driven creative economy, and how the economic ecosystem enables them to thrive and compete.โฃ
While some announcements may not stand out as headline-grabbing, the Budget contains decisions that will define future opportunities.โฃ
Key announcements reinforce this direction. Through targeted support for MSMEs, the government highlights their vital role in job creation and GDP growth. Investments in creative and digital sectors such as AVGC reflect the evolving nature of work and the rise of knowledge-based industries. A renewed emphasis on tourism and services seeks to generate employment beyond manufacturing, while measures to protect domestic industries amid geopolitical and trade uncertainties demonstrate a pragmatic approach to global challenges. Overall, these strategies position the Budget as one that prioritises strengthening productivity and competitiveness over consumption-led growth.โฃ
The Primus Budget Report examines the Budget not only through sectors, but through people. It brings together perspectives from 24 voices representing the aspirations of Viksit Bharat @2047, including industry leaders such as Smt. @smritiirani , Former Union Minister; Mr Piyush Arora, Managing Director, @SkodaIndia@volkswagenindia ; Mr Nishant Arya, Vice Chairman and Managing Director, @JBMAuto ; Dr Ashwin Fernandes (@ashwinjf ), Executive Director, @QSCorporate ; and Mr Patrick Smets, CEO, @submertech , as well as parliamentarians such as Shri M. SriBharat ( @sribharatm ) and Captain Brijesh Chowta (@CaptBrijesh ). The report goes beyond interpretation to present an in-depth assessment of how the Budget translates into outcomes for people and enterprises.โฃ
We welcome your feedback as we continue this conversation on Indiaโs economic direction and the choices that will shape its future.
