Social entrepreneur Sharat Khemka is putting an end to a period of taboo

Sharat Khemka, an ex-student of Seth Anandram Jaipuria School, is a young dynamic businessman and a social entrepreneur whose achievements are worth admiring.

The director of Shudh Plus Hygiene Products Pvt Ltd, he has managed 15 different organisations across construction, infrastructure and real estate sectors.

As the co-founder of the Niine Foundation — a five-year plan aimed at raising awareness on the importance of menstrual hygiene and the urgent need to tackle the taboos associated with menstruation — he was the brains behind the launch of Niine Sanitary pads.


Niine aims to be the brand of choice for Indian women who seek affordable and quality personal hygiene solutions.

A strong believer in a strong foundation of talent, technology, and quality, Khemka’s focused approach, enthusiasm, and sincere efforts are the driving force behind his success. His ability to spot potential and take decisive actions to turn his plans into reality has made him a leader worth looking up to. Having started his journey as a small supplier of paan masala products, along with his father, Khemka slowly and steadily made his mark. And though many pointed to his lack of experience to run a business, he did not let the criticism deflect him from his chosen path.

Khemka modernised and systematised the management structure of the company. He opened new avenues and gave enormous heights to the trade. And much to the surprise of his detractors, the company made rapid progress under Khemka’s leadership.
