I am an entrepreneur from Assam and the founder of Lensing Agro Pvt Ltd, a startup focused on building nutraceutical and functional food products from underutilized indigenous superfoods of Northeast India. With a background in agri-commodities and exports, I have firsthand experience in sourcing, supply chain challenges, and the inefficiencies that limit value creation in India’s agricultural ecosystem.

I am currently building a functional beverage brand centered around elephant apple (Dillenia indica), a traditionally valued but commercially overlooked fruit known for its antioxidant and digestive health properties. My goal is to transform this raw, underutilized resource into a scalable, science-backed consumer product that can compete in global hydration and wellness markets.

Through Lensing Agro, I aim to bridge the gap between farmers and high-value markets by combining scientific processing, clean-label formulation, and strong branding. I am focused on creating commercially viable products that not only have global potential but also generate sustainable income opportunities for rural and forest-based communities in Northeast India.
