Delhi-born Raj Sardana's US Success and Niece's Pronto Startup Growth in India
Raj Sardana, born in Delhi in 1960, built a nearly Rs 20,000 crore net worth as founder and CEO of US-based Innova Solutions after starting with modest means and overcoming job loss in 1990. His niece, Anjali Sardana, launched Bengaluru-based startup Pronto at age 23 to address India's informal domestic-help market. Pronto grew rapidly since 2025, expanding across major cities and reaching a valuation near Rs 2,000 crore by mid-2026, focusing on verified, trained workers and quick service delivery.
