The key idea of DriversKart was coined by its Founder and currently the CEO, Vinit Srivastava, an IIM Calcutta alumnus with corporate and entrepreneurship experience of over 10 years. His firm belief in the concept of DriversKart, birthed from his thinking about experiencing and valuing one’s time.Commenting on the urgent need for a product like DriversKart, Vinit Srivastava says, “There exists a latent demand for organized chauffeurs even among professionals who commute to work. With car density per 1000 people at mere 13, the car ownership will continue to see exponential growth resulting in time lost during traffic and parking. With on demand chauffeur, customers will be able to dedicate their time to add more value to their personal and professional life.” Vinit was joined by Saksham, an IIT Mandi alumnus, an expert in Mobility and currently the Chief Technical Officer at DriversKart
