Tilak Mehta Company
If people took the help of courier companies, then it took a lot of time to deliver the goods, and if they wanted a faster delivery, then they were charged extra. This gave birth to the idea of starting Paper and Parcel Papers N Parcels. He thought that why not start a company that can provide delivery services to the people in less time and less money, and he converted his dream into reality and started his business.
He had a great idea, he was also solving the problem, and his family was also ready to help him, but he still had a challenge which was; how to start the business and how will he be able to make the consumers aware of the business. He was thinking all this when he thought about the Dabbawalas (tiffin delivery people). Dabbawalas are called the lifelines of Mumbai city because everything can be late in Mumbai, but these people are very firm in their time, and their network is spread all over the city of Mumbai. Tilak thought that he could work together with these people, and by doing so, they would be able to deliver food as well as other goods to the people. Tilak spent time with the coaches and understood their network and work very well.
The Family Support

Tilak first took full knowledge of the market and got his own application made up of Papers N Parcels. It took them about eight months to make this application complete, and when this app was launched, people liked it a lot. It is obvious that the parcel which people had to spend 250 to 300 rupees to send, with the help of Papers and Parcels, the same parcel was delivered in just 30 to 40 rupees and that too in very less time.
With the help of this application, you can get goods up to 3 kg delivered from one place to another on the same day in the city of Mumbai. This application was started in 2018, and it was very much like in Mumbai. Thousands of people are able to send goods from one place to another with the help of this app. Not only this, but Tilak has also given employment to hundreds of people at such a young age.
After the success of this startup, Tilak has a goal that he wants to start this company all over India.
