IIT Delhi Grad’s startup empowers farmers; Boosts income by 35%

Varun Khurana, an IIT Delhi computer science graduate, has made a significant impact in the agricultural sector with his startup, Otipy. Founded in May 2020, Otipy connects small farmers directly with consumers, eliminating middlemen and ensuring fair prices.
