The EPIC Opportunity is rooted in the untapped economic potential of Entrepreneurial Households—an innovative, resilient segment generating multiple income streams. Often categorized as low-income or bottom-of-the-pyramid, we view them as key drivers of India’s growth over the next two decades.

This 247 million household segment has been misunderstood, undervalued, and overlooked by businesses and investors. As a result, they lack access to essential services such as healthcare, financial loans, education, and investment opportunities, which are crucial for fueling business growth.

Addressing these core needs can unlock their full potential. Our estimates reveal a $100 trillion opportunity over the next 20 years to serve Indian Entrepreneurial Households and harness their economic vibrancy.

The time to act is now.

What is the epic opportunity?

01India is home to 247 million Entrepreneurial Households.
02Entrepreneurial Households are a large and vibrant customer segment characterized by economic resilience, innovativeness, and multiple sources of income. They consistently make smart investments towards their own continued growth.
03Come, let’s meet one of these households.
04Their sources of income are fruit farming, profits from a kirana store, a tailoring practice, and a small business loan. These are called inflows.
05They also have several outflows - investments made in their own future growth.
06This includes private schooling for the kids, the internet, a 2-wheeler, and upgraded farm equipment.
07We term the transaction value of such inflows and outflows as Core Transaction Value or CTV.
08It’s a metric that highlights the economic vibrancy and potential of transacting with Entrepreneurial Households.
09Despite their size and drive, they lack access to products and services that serve their needs - loans, quality education and healthcare.
10They are often overlooked and undervalued. This makes it harder for Entrepreneurial Households to unleash their full economic power.

Having engaged with them for decades, we’ve found Entrepreneurial Households to be financially savvy and eager to invest in their growth.

In fact, the CTV from 247 million such Entrepreneurial Households is expected to reach $100 trillion over the next 20 years, growing at a CAGR of 12%.

The gaps in the market represent a large opportunity. Businesses and capital allocators that invest in this segment stand to benefit greatly by providing services tailored to them.

We are on a mission to build 50+ blue chip companies serving Entrepreneurial Households over the next 20 years.

This is the EPIC Opportunity. And the time is now.

A Segment Fueling Its Own Growth

Our research challenges common misconceptions about Entrepreneurial Households. Often labeled low-income, the average Entrepreneurial Household transacts $35,000 annually. This segment is economically savvy, resilient, and brand-conscious—investing wisely to fuel its own growth.

Infrastructure Building Blocks in Place

India’s digital and physical infrastructure—covering personal information, income verification, e-KYC, physical accessibility, and business resources—has evolved. This progress has lowered barriers for both Entrepreneurial Households and the businesses serving them, driving growth on both ends.

India Is in an Economic Sweet Spot

Countries see rapid growth when GDP per capita rises from $2k to $10k—South Korea, China, and some of India’s top states have all demonstrated this. Indian Entrepreneurial Households are primed to capitalize on this momentum, driving both their own success and the nation’s growth.
