Our Mission

Engineered for Value. Insulated from Casual Distractions.

Sarthi Business Group was founded in Nashik by entrepreneurs who were tired of networking events that produced business cards but not business. SBG brings structure, accountability and measurement to the age-old Indian practice of doing business through trusted relationships.

Unlike open networks, SBG reserves one seat per business category in each chapter, reviews every applicant, and tracks referrals all the way to closed business.

Absolute Integrity

Every member is reviewed. Every referral is given in good faith.

Category Exclusivity

One category per chapter, so members collaborate rather than compete.

Punctual Governance

Structured, time-bound meetings that respect everyone's time.

Reciprocal Prosperity

We grow by helping each other grow — giving first, always.

Board of Stewards
