Founders: Dhaval Prakashbhai & Jayesh Prakashbhai Nai.

Founders Conveyed:

The founders conveyed that big businesses are planned over Tea, so they decided to try it here. What do we need in the morning? A cup of Tea. During office breaks, what do we need? A cup of Tea. What does Salman Khan needs? A hot cup of Tea. We Indians love Tea so much that there is a Tea stall at every corner, where we drink Tea, which is served in paper cups or glasses.

The paper costs us and our environment a lot, and when it is served in a glass, then have you ever seen how it is washed? To solve this problem, the founders have created a Tea glass washing machine. It can hygienically wash 12 to 15 glasses in 30 seconds. Its USP (Unique Selling Proposition) is its compact size and simple design. It also can be used to develop more products for the washing industry. Their vision is to install this machine at every Tea stall in India, and everybody must be served a hygienic cup of Tea.

The machine that they have built is their latest version, and have built it with the grant of Shark Anupam Mittal. They have sold 3 machines in Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, and Maharashtra. They sold the first machine for Rs. 20K, and sold the second and third machines for Rs. 28K.

Founders Conveyed:

The founders conveyed that when Indians visit someone, they take some food items with them as gifts. So they presented Daryaganj from Delhi and asked the Sharks to have some food and fun.

They conveyed a story of the year 1947, which had some mixed emotions. On one hand, the whole of India was celebrating independence, and on the other hand, millions of people lost all their belongings and started a new life with the remains. This is how a refugee, Kundan Lal Jaggi moved to Daryaganj in Delhi from Peshawar. He had talent and could cook delicious food. He soon opened a restaurant along with his two friends. One fateful night, the restaurant welcomed plenty of guests, but all the food in the kitchen was sold out. He went into the kitchen and took the leftover pieces of Tandoori Chicken in a gravy of Tomatoes and Butter, then he served the same dish.

The founders asked the Sharks to guess what was invented. Our very own Butter Chicken. Just by chance, Dal Makhani was also invented in the same restaurant. Kundan Lal Jaggi, the man who invented Butter Chicken and Dal Makhani was the grandfather of the founders. He ran the restaurant till 1992, and then he retired. He was awarded the Culinary Legend Award in 2015 by the apex body of India. They were in discussion about reviving his legacy. Unfortunately, their grandfather died in 2018. They launched Daryaganj in 2019. The most authentic and flavorful restaurant for North Indian cuisine that hopefully, you will experience. It is a complete tribute to his culinary legacy.

They have 5 restaurants and 1 cloud kitchen and are about to come up with 5 more restaurants and cloud kitchens. They plan to open 100 restaurants in the next five years. The price of Butter Chicken is Rs. 550, and Dal Makhani is Rs. 385. Their annual sales in FY 2021-22 was Rs. 22 Cr and achieved Rs. 18 Cr revenue in FY 2022-23 to date.
