Lokacart Farmer's App

IIT Mumbai

A joint initiative of Prof Ganesh Ramakrishnan, Dept of CSE, IIT Bombay, Prof Narendra Shah, CTARA, IIT Bombay and alumni Ashvin Gami, MD at StrategicERP and Mr Vikram Bansal of Lokavidya Technologies Pvt Ltd. 

This app enabled MSMEs to bring their fresh farm produce to various consumers, allowing them to manage inventory and sell with full e-commerce features.

Leading the design team at IIT-B, my goal was to create the user flows based on different use cases and personas that we could identify. 

Lokacart has over 50 sellers and around 5,000 buyers. One of the success stories for the Lokacart platform has been through Abhinav Farmers. 

Abhinav Farmers Club is a national award-winning group farming initiative located in Mulshi taluka, of Pune district of Maharashtra. 

It has been highly successful during COVID-19 to help farmers stay put and earn their living by selling their produce on the app.

2D LEAD

BFX Festival UK

Bournemouth, UK

Worked for my team as 2D lead and Nuke TD and produced the final film for the competition in just six real Production weeks ( one extra week was given to us to get used equipment, machine and various other things in and around Bournemouth University). We were supposed to produce a high-quality visual effects video lasting for 30 seconds. Every asset for this was created in the time frame given by the hosts. 

It was also a great learning experience for us as many industry professionals came and gave us valuable advice, which did help us a lot in finishing our film and also helped us in future, once we stepped into the actual industry after graduating.
