'Sometimes the biggest promotion is...': Employee leaves Rs 38,000 corporate job to sell chai, now he earns Rs 1.8 lakh per month

A former call centre employee who quit from a steady Rs 38,000 monthly salary to sell tea on a roadside stall is now earning nearly triple that in profit, according to a viral post shared by his neighbour on X (formerly Twitter). The neighbour, user @iamankitpande, wrote that the man quit his job at Teleperformance in May this year, put in about Rs 2 lakh of his own money, and set up a tea shop near an auto stand, a move that many around him initially dismissed as reckless.
