#35Under35 | Entrepreneur Media India 2026 When survival became the first lesson in finance, Misbah Ashraf turned adversity into action — building resilience long before he built a company. Growing up in Bihar in a single-income household, Misbah witnessed the harsh cycle of local moneylending — one loan taken to repay another. At just 16, he began tutoring, selling software, and even game CDs to support his family. For him, entrepreneurship was never a fashionable choice. It was responsibility. Years later, that instinct shaped the foundation of Jar — a fintech platform built to simplify savings and make gold investing accessible to everyday Indians. From selling printed T-shirts featuring brands like Infosys and Tata Consultancy Services during his time at Amity University, to dropping out in his third year to pursue entrepreneurship full-time, Misbah consistently chose conviction over comfort. For transforming personal hardship into a scalable financial solution impacting millions, Misbah Ashraf has been honoured as part of the Entrepreneur India 35 Under 35 – Class of 2026.

This International Women’s Day, we celebrate the vision, resilience, and innovation of women entrepreneurs who are building billion-dollar businesses and shaping India’s startup ecosystem. From Falguni Nayar (Nykaa) and Ghazal Alagh (Mamaearth) to Upasana Taku (MobiKwik) and Vineeta Singh (SUGAR Cosmetics), these leaders are proving that nothing is impossible when ambition meets perseverance. While challenges like gender bias, limited diversity within VC funds and fewer opportunities for women are still persistent in the larger startup ecosystem – these headwinds have not stopped women from proving their might and becoming true bellwethers of change. Here’s a list of 39 phenomenal women founders behind India’s leading unicorns and soonicorns, driving change and inspiring the next generation of entrepreneurs. 👇 💭 Who are you cheering for this Women’s Day?
