How Amit is making $2,40,000 Per Annum by quitting engineering

Let's introduce you to Amit Doshi, a skilled engineer from Ahmedabad, and the brains behind NeeRain Private Limited, a game-changer in the fight against water scarcity.

In 2014, Amit made a pivotal choice, leaving his job at Sintex Industries Limited, driven by a personal mission

Amit's inspiration came from watching his own family's struggle for water in Kalol, Gujarat. Borewells ran dry, and municipal water supply was unreliable

[{"selector":"#anim-2fc6dfb3-1ddb-4e0c-b069-bac500a9c33f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e9a8150b-6f63-4946-92e3-314c551f78ec","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-124.72727%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7ff13af6-b476-40fb-8599-39cb2c132e4a [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Amit's childhood experiences ignited his determination to create a rainwater harvesting solution that's not only affordable but also user-friendly

[{"selector":"#anim-3aadbe07-cc77-4a3d-84d1-007842126ca4","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3970f3a3-1f4b-4d9f-8a14-1b560e17f4b1","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 156.09906%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-fcc67ca6-c787-47e6-8603-ba5fcc8692c2 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-7.812499744007886%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]

After a year of relentless research and development, Amit introduced the NeeRain Rainwater Filter in 2018. It's a compact device that stands at 1x1x1.5 feet

[{"selector":"#anim-28b141fa-2e3f-48d2-ab4a-7942c78c6b12","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-64db2fa1-b975-45d8-b6df-1b17317e414f","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 183.58104%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d16f0041-68a7-455a-8b05-3725f1eb38a3 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-7.812499744007886%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]

The NeeRain Rainwater Filter is made from ABS and operates on gravity alone, eliminating the need for electricity

Fast forward to June 2020, NeeRain is now installed in 250 cities across India and even exported to countries like Kenya, Zimbabwe, and South Africa

NeeRain's impact is astounding, having saved a whopping 125 billion liters of rainwater across seven countries and three continents by June 2023
