Holding an Economics degree from Delhi University, Mr. Uday started his career in 1984 as an executive with CAL Systems, a Delhi based computer hardware company, where he worked for six years with a short break trying his hands on third party desktop support business. In 1990, he ventured into apparel business which he sold later in 1995 after opening four outlets in Delhi. [3]

In the late nineties, Uday had short stints with two companies viz. Newgen Software Technologies Ltd., a company with business interests in document imaging at that time and a mid-size SAP Implementation.
