My Story
Started out as an industrial designer, read about crowded cities and said, bas! (enough!) Let’s fix this kachra (waste) mess. Designed the Khamba - a composter that fits in a balcony, looks nothing like a dustbin, and doesn’t stink. We’ve worked with potters, been on Shark Tank, won awards, but real pride is when someone tells us their kitchen waste is now ‘black gold’. Our dream? Every Indian home using a composter, just like a washing machine. Team Daily Dump is still here, pushing this dream, one Khamba at a time.
My Work
Composters for Every Space - We offer terracotta Khamba composter, Terrabite for homes, and Gaia for big communities. Balcony, society, you name it.
No Smell, No Fuss - Our composters are clean, look good, and promise no smell home composting. No flies, no mess, just easy.
DIY or Ready Kits - Use a toota bucket or our compost starter kit. We help you start, whichever way suits you.
Waste Segregation Help - We teach you to separate waste at home, send dry stuff to kabadivala, and turn gandh (bad smell) into sugandh (fragrance).
Community Support - Over 90,000 families compost with us. It’s not just buying, it’s joining a movement.
