Bengaluru Entrepreneur Shares Journey from 1RK to 5BHK Highlighting Financial IndependencePreviousNext

Bengaluru entrepreneur Vertika Shukla shared her journey from living in a modest one-room home with a ₹15,000 rent to residing in a luxury 5BHK paying ₹1.81 lakh monthly. Starting at age 22 with a ₹50,000 monthly income and no family wealth, she advanced her career by changing jobs and pursuing an MBA.
