Raghav Jhawar — CEO
I started my education journey from a very small town near Kolkata. Ambition to get into SRCC drove me to put my best in academics in Class 12th. SRCC was a life-changing experience. I met exceptionally talented & diverse people there who pulled my bar of excellence and ambition to a level I had never imagined of. I dribbled between Dramatics & Enactus (social entrepreneurship) student clubs and eventually became the President of Enactus. Those 2 years taught me a lot about leadership, entrepreneurship, community building and the social problems plaguing India. As college was coming to an end, I got an offer from AT Kearney as a management consultant. Life had other plans though. Covid happened and the idea of The State Plate was seeded. I co-founded this company along with my college friend, where we curated packaged regional foods from different states of India & delivered it pan India. Over the span of its journey, we have served more than 1.8 lakh consumers. We raised our first round of funding from Antler India & then an additional one from Peyush Bansal at Shark Tank. We built a team of 24 people and eventually sold this beautiful brand to JustMyRoots. Post acquisition, I lead the TSP business, along with the offline business charter of the parent organisation in Southern India and exited in August 2025. Post that, I teamed up with my brother Rohit to start Your Growth Labs - an accelerator to scale brands on quick commerce. If you do 100 rupees in sales on Blinkit, Instamart, Zepto, etc, we will take you to 500. Hit me up if you want to chat about anything ecommerce, D2C, operations, supply chain, retention. On the fun side, I love playing cricket, board games and host the most amazing house parties. :)
