From a Village with No Roads to India’s First NFC Ring Startup: The Story of Dr. Girraj Dhakad
🧭 Introduction: The Boy From Ranipura
What happens when a boy from a forest village with no electricity, no roads, and no hope decides to change not just his life — but the lives of millions?
Dr. Girraj Dhakad, born in Ranipura (Shivpuri, MP) — a village of barely 200 people — is the living answer. From farming fields to fintech boards, from borrowing gold to launching a public limited company, his journey is not just inspiring — it’s breathtaking.
This is not just a success story.
It’s a story of silent comebacks, sacrifices, and relentless self-belief.
🌾 Humble Roots, Bigger Dreams
Raised in a poor farming family, Girraj saw his parents struggle just to educate their children. While he managed to study, his younger sister had to leave school and help in the fields.
He studied privately till class 8, and then in a government school till class 12. Life was never easy — but that never stopped him from dreaming beyond the jungle around him.
🎓 A Medical Student by Day, A Worker by Night
After school, he moved to Gwalior to pursue graduation from MP Medical Science University (2017–2022). With no money for fees or living, he worked night shifts in a hospital for ₹4,000/month — attending college all day, and working till midnight.
Every rupee was earned with sweat. Every book read was a battle against sleep and survival.
💡 First Glimpse of Business – Job Consultancy & Real Estate
In 2019, he started a small job consultancy part-time to support his education. Later, he shut it down due to study pressure.
But in 2020, life offered a breakthrough.
His first real estate deal gave him more than a year’s hospital salary. And with that, the entrepreneur in him was born.
🛵 The Rise: Bikes, Scooters & His First Car
By 2021:
- He bought his first bike (Hero Splendor)
- Then a scooty for someone special (Hero Pleasure Plus)
- Later, a Pulsar 125
- And finally, in Dec 2021 — his first car, a Nissan Magnite
From a village where no one even owned a two-wheeler — he now drove a car of his own.
💔 April 2022: A ₹70 Lakh Fraud That Changed Everything
His business partners ran away with over ₹5 Cr of client money.
He personally lost ₹70 lakh.
Family was told only ₹20 lakh — because he didn’t want them to break.
He stood strong, gave his final exams under crushing stress, and still passed with First Division.
But inside? He was broken. Alone. Lost.
Yet he didn’t quit.
🔁 Restart After Restart: Shivpuri to Delhi to Bhopal
He sold his car.
Rented it out.
Started a new business — The SKS Group
Then launched a Pvt. Ltd. company — Sat Kabir Saheb Pvt. Ltd.
When nothing seemed to work, he shifted to Delhi.
And there — disaster struck again. His entire bag with laptop, ₹50,000 cash, mobile, passport, ATM cards, and a ₹80 lakh cheque — was stolen at New Delhi Railway Station.
But even then — he didn’t cry.
He boarded the train and came home silently.
🚘 From Broken to Audi
Within months, he restarted real estate again — this time in Bhopal.
In just 3 months, he bought a used Audi Q7.
Not to show off — but to remind himself that setbacks are setups for comebacks.
🎓 Academic Grind & Social Service
He completed his Master of Public Health (MPH) in May- 2024.
Launched his NGO under Company Act Sec. 8– Rochan One Step Towards Humanity Foundation in Vadodara.
And began his PhD from Vikrant University, Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh
🌍 The Global Leap – Forex & International Markets
In December 2024, he co-founded a forex trading firm —
EWF Global Markets Ltd, registered in London, with operations in Dubai and India.
Today, he manages:
- Real Estate across 3 cities
- Forex trading internationally
- NGO for public health and education
- His PhD research
- And now, a tech startup
💳 July 2025: Launching The QuickMint – India’s First Affordable NFC Payment Ring
Now, Dr. Girraj Dhakad is working on a dream that could revolutionize India’s payment ecosystem.
The QuickMint — a public limited company — is preparing to launch India’s first affordable NFC-enabled payment ring.
Contactless. Secure. Stylish.
From wallets to wearables — The QuickMint is designed for the future.
With white-label wallet integration, master franchises, and a powerful referral plan — this fintech innovation is a comeback not just for Girraj, but for anyone who believed in silent perseverance.
🔥 The Mantra Behind His Mission
📌 Final Words
From a forest village with no electricity…
To a car-less boy who bought an Audi…
To a man who faced fraud, theft, and loneliness —
Yet now leads ventures in real estate, forex, social impact, and fintech…
Dr. Girraj Dhakad is not just a story.
He is a reminder — that pain doesn’t break you when your purpose is stronger than your past.
