COO, Delhiveryage: 38
In the last two months of 2014, the Gurgaon-based logistics firm added 4,000 employees and expanded from 250 distribution centres to 450, paving the way for same-day delivery. Saharan led the hiring programme. His big learning for the year: long-term thinking. “Till a year ago, we would just hack our way out of difficult situations,” he says. With almost 50,000 merchants and 1,500 e-commerce portals as clients, Delhivery is set to quadruple its revenue in FY15 to Rs 220 crore. Next fiscal’s target: top Rs 500 crore and grow from two parcels a second to five.
