Vaibhav Kaushik, an engineering graduate from the prestigious BITS Pilani, launched India’s first fuel aggregator start-up, Nawgati, in 2019. Incubated and backed by BITS Pilani and India’s Ministry of Electronics and IT, the start-up uses the existing CCTV and dispenser infrastructure at fuel stations to manage congestion and waiting time of vehicles at pumps.

“The idea for the venture was sparked during a chat with a cab driver in Noida. Drivers usually have to wait long hours in queues at gas stations as they are unaware of the real-time queue status at other stations,” says the 25-year old entrepreneur.
