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, Late Shri Mukesh Mehrotra, was elected Chairman of Kashipur Nagar Palika Parishad in November 2003 — a moment Amar Ujala carried under the headline “मुकेश मेहरोत्रा बने नगर पालिका अध्यक्ष.” 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.
