Sanjeev Bikhchandani founded Info Edge in 1995 with the purpose of linking job searchers with
potential companies. The internet was still in its infancy in India at the time, and there were
relatively few online employment sites. Bikhchandani recognised a potential to utilise the

job searchers and companies.

He has a managerial experience and had previously worked for Hindustan Lever Limited and
The Times of India group before beginning his own enterprise. He has the necessary business
acumen, market knowledge, and skill set to launch an enterprise.

He was also inspired by the internet's ability to link people and companies in ways that were not
before conceivable. He thought that by developing a platform that made it simple for job
searchers to identify employment openings and businesses to find suitable applicants, he could
provide a significant service to both groups.

Bikhchandani also felt that by harnessing the power of the internet, he could develop a scalable
business model capable of reaching millions of people across India. This was a major motivator
for him to launch Info Edge, and he was successful in building one of India's most successful and
creative online enterprises.
