From ₹3.5 Crore Crisis to Comeback -- The Real Journey of Pratik Agarwal, Founder of India Fab

In this episode of The HJ Show, host Harsh Joshi sits down with Pratik Agarwal — Founder of India Fab, a Surat-based saree manufacturing and e-commerce brand backed by a 35 to 40 year family textile legacy. Pratik's journey is one of the most honest and raw entrepreneurial stories you will hear. From joining his family business during college, building India Fab from scratch, achieving 150 to 200 percent year on year growth — to facing a devastating ₹3.5 Crore stock crisis, spending 27 days in hospital, and rebuilding everything with patience, discipline and consistency. In this conversation we discuss family business dynamics, the e-commerce boom during Covid, the real cost of rapid scaling without systems, how to restart after a complete business collapse, the power of networking, and why mental and physical health are an entrepreneur's most important assets. A must-listen for every entrepreneur, business owner and anyone building something from scratch. Available on Spotify, Amazon Music, JioSaavn, Youtube, Youtube Music Search: The HJ Show
