In conversation with the Chairman at Nirmalya Labs, Biraja Prasad Nath. Let’s hear more about Nirmalya Labs, its products, and its team’s entrepreneurial journey.

Please tell us about the company and its journey so far.

Nirmalya Labs is a company that blossomed out of the need of its co-founders to start something on their own, where they could innovate and do something which they never got to do in their corporate life. After working for more than 20+ years incorporate, the duo of Biraja Prasad Nath & Keshav Tripathy decided to carve a niche in the domain of Product Engineering. Our key services include Product Engineering, Enterprise Application, Agile Testing, and Finance & Accounting Services. Considering the volatile dynamics of the global economic system, every company/organization needs cost-effective, robust, secure, and hassle-free services.

Biraja Prasad Nath & Keshav Tripathy envision becoming partners in the success of entrepreneurs by helping them translate their ideas into world-class software products. Recognized as a start-up by the Govt. of India and Odisha, we deploy innovative enterprise solutions in a cost-effective way that allows small, medium, and large businesses to leverage technology effectively. When innovation, passion for customer success is amalgamated with values, ethics, quality, and sustainability, the blend becomes a perfect combination for a successful company.

Well, challenges exist mostly around money, talent, and survival. But Biraja Prasad Nath & Keshav Tripathy have to weather the start-up storm and not just survive but succeed, we have looked beyond these ‘initial’ challenges and planed for long-term impact. Survival and success depend on several things, but the most critical ones in our mind have to do with problem identification, designing scalable solutions, and putting the right team in place to execute it.

Since its inception, we are very much clear about what we are going to do. Biraja Prasad Nath & Keshav Tripathy have identified problem statements, build the solution. Our first product on MBC (iPravaah and mPravaah) was well accepted by the customer and in a short time frame, we got more than d by 2M consumers. Secondly, we have put most of our efforts to build an ERP (Extend) solution which caters to customers who can’t afford big names in the market and at the same time they need an innovative and cost-effective integrated enterprise solution. We are happy, in the last year, we have had more than 20 customers on board for Extend and many in the pipeline.

Predominantly we work on product engineering; however, we are also working on enterprise application, Testing, and consulting. We as a start-up, have handpicked passionate engineers who want to take the challenge and dive deeper into the latest technologies like Blockchain, AR, & AI. Blockchain is a match made in heaven for the sharing economy as Blockchain enables philosophical alignment between the sharing economy users.

Biraja Prasad Nath & Keshav Tripathy are positive thinkers and see the invisible, feel the intangible, and are willing to achieve the impossible. We are a very small entity, yet technologically ahead of many companies in the market. As a niche SW Product Company, we are targeting start-ups that have an excellent idea but do not have an engineering team to translate the idea to the product. At Nirmalya Labs, we work with the following motto and message to customers: 

“You Focus on Your Core Business, let us do the Engineering.”

We as a company spend lots of effort on innovative solutions and technologies which would help a majority of the society. Recently we have started work on an innovative solution using AR & ML for the grooming industry, which will be affordable for budget customers.
