MBA Graduate From Delhi Turns Three Rooms Into a Thriving Mushroom Farm, Earning Rs 60 Lakh Annually

In a remarkable story of passion meeting entrepreneurship, an MBA graduate from Delhi has proven that success can grow even in the most unexpected places — like three small rooms. In 2019, Shri Shyam Mushroom Farm was established in Kangan Heri, a village tucked away on the outskirts of Delhi. Today, this innovative farm produces around 3,000 kilograms of button mushrooms every month and generates an impressive annual revenue of Rs 60 lakh.
Armed with a business degree and a strong desire to break away from the conventional 9-to-5 path, the founder decided to step into the world of agriculture — but with a modern twist. Recognizing the growing demand for high-quality, fresh mushrooms and the relatively low startup costs compared to other crops, he saw a golden opportunity in mushroom cultivation.
Starting with just three rooms, he invested in setting up a controlled environment essential for mushroom farming. Button mushrooms, known for their delicate nature, require precise humidity, temperature, and hygiene conditions. Using innovative techniques and keen management, the farm created ideal growing conditions year-round, allowing for consistent production even when outdoor conditions varied.
The results speak for themselves. Shri Shyam Mushroom Farm quickly gained a reputation for producing high-quality button mushrooms, catering to local markets, restaurants, and grocery stores. Word of mouth, coupled with smart marketing strategies, helped the venture scale rapidly.
What makes this journey even more inspiring is the efficient use of space and resources. Instead of sprawling farmland, success was cultivated in a compact setup, making it a replicable model for aspiring agripreneurs across India. The farm not only showcases the profitability of mushroom farming but also highlights how young Indians are reimagining agriculture with education, technology, and a fresh mindset.
From a few rooms in a quiet village to a business worth Rs 60 lakh annually, the story of Shri Shyam Mushroom Farm is a testament to how determination, innovation, and strategic thinking can turn a simple idea into a flourishing enterprise.
