The Six Who Saw What the World Ignored
On a quiet highway ride, six men — Chandrashekar Bagewadi, Deepak Patil, Nagaraj Yeligar, Girish Nalawadi, Vijaykumar Guddad, and Shankar Koliwad — witnessed a moment that changed everything. A farmer stood beside his harvest, silently throwing onions onto the road, having realized it cost more to sell them than to give up.
Sons of farmers themselves, the sight pulled them back into a shared truth they knew too well. In that silence, a question took root — and from it, Nelva was born. Not as a company, but as a promise: that no farmer’s effort would ever be left to lose its value on the roadside again.
WHO ARE WE
Nelva did not grow from the vision of six directors alone. Their moment on that highway was only the spark — but the fire belongs to thousands. Nelva is shaped by farmers who refuse to give up, by youth who choose to stay rooted, by labourers who carry the weight of seasons, and by communities that believe dignity should never be negotiable. Our family is far bigger than anyone imagines; it is every hand that tills the soil, every mind that builds solutions, and every heart that believes the farmer deserves more than survival — they deserve identity, value, and a voice.
