Papers N Parcels
Tilak Mehta is one of the
India's youngest entrepreneur.
His start-up company Papers-
N-Parcels or PNP in short, is
set to bring about a digital
disruption in the space of door-
to-door courier pick-up and
delivery services.
13-year-old boy ropes in Mumbai’s
Dabbawalas for a logistics start-up..!
Tilak Mehta is like any other Mumbai teenager. The 13-year-old
attends a suburban school studying in Class VIII, and rues about
his father coming home from work late and tired.
The idea was presented to his father Vishal, who was quickly
convinced that this idea needed to be pursued. As Chief Executive
of Rushabh Sealink, a logistics company, his father could have
helped. But Tilak went through the grind, researching the concept
and running a beta for four months before formally launching it.
“Papers N Parcels (PNP) is my dream and I will work to ensure
that the business becomes big,” the boy said.
Any customer can log on to the app and place an order for a
delivery. PNP has a defined area of operation connected by the
city’s famed train network, with a hub at Dadar in central Mumbai.
It handles parcels of up to three kg and charges ₹40-180 per
parcel depending on the weight.
The Dabbawalas will mostly be handling the last-mile delivery for
PNP after finishing their day’s work, said Dabbawala Association
spokesperson Subhash Talekar.
