A Journey of Resilience
My Story
From a small city of community to a national clean-energy mission — in seven chapters.
Chapter 1 · The Beginnings
Kashipur Beginnings
I grew up in Kashipur, a small city that taught me the value of community. My father, Shri Mukesh Mehrotra, served as Municipal Chairman and later as Minister of State in Uttarakhand. At our dinner table, public service wasn’t a career — it was a calling.
Chapter 2 · Foundation
Education & Corporate Foundation
M.A. in English Literature, Diploma in French. Roles at American Express, G4S, EXL, and Headstrong. Those years taught me how large organizations work — and how people within them need to be heard and seen.
Chapter 3 · Partnership
A Life with Kunwer Sachdev
Meeting “The Inverter Man of India” — building a life together, supporting his 26-year journey with Su-Kam.
Chapter 4 · Resilience
The Fall & Rise
When Su-Kam faced bankruptcy, I saw my husband lose something he had worked decades to build. But I also saw a man, not just an entrepreneur. My job was not to fix his company — it was to hold him together. And then, together, we started again.
2019 · New Beginnings
Founding Su-vastika
The idea was clean, lithium-ion based energy storage. A story of resilience, not revenge. I didn’t start Su-vastika to prove anything. I started it because I knew we could do better — for the planet and for the people.
Chapter 6 · Leadership
The Caregiver at Work
Ask any of my team members. They will tell you — I know their children’s names, I ask about their parents’ health, and I celebrate their small wins. Leadership, for me, is just another word for taking care.
Today · Looking Ahead
Today
Su-vastika is exporting to Africa & the Middle East, targeting ₹1 billion turnover. Patents, awards, and a vision for a greener India.
