On the Move: My Journey as a Serial Entrepreneur

FRESH OUT OF SCHOOL AND STILL A TEENAGER, JOINING MY FATHER's SHOP IN CHANDNI CHOWK WAS NOT AN OPTION, IT WAS THE ONLY OPTION! Every entrepreneur's story is different; each follows a unique path to success. Even so, Hari Khemka stands out because of the sheer range of his entrepreneurship. From textiles and paper to household goods, metals, steel, IT (hardware and software), real estate, sound technology, education and, finally, surveillance solutions, he has been there and done that. Born into a traditional Marwari family from Churu, Rajasthan and growing up in Chandni Chowk, Hari followed the established script respect your elders, marry young, learn Mundi (the script exclusive to Marwari traders) and join the family business. But when a split in the family business plunged him into financial crisis, the young lad, newly married and de facto head of the family, decisively stepped off the beaten path. Catapulted into the rough and tumble of the business world with no one to guide him, Hari let his instincts take over and mastered the craft of every business he moved into. Today he dominates the field of security and surveillance through his flagship company, CP Plus, which is the youngest and fastest brand to enter the club of top four security companies in the world and the top two in Asia. On the Move captures the journey of Hari as a relentless entrepreneur, peppered with incredible anecdotes of his business failures and triumphs. "
