About me


Understanding Bharat Beyond Startup Headlines.
Documenting the business logic of real India.
Webverbal is a Bharat-first startup intelligence and entrepreneurial research platform focused on understanding the behavioural, economic, and entrepreneurial realities emerging from Tier 2, Tier 3, and rural India.
Founded by Debansh Das Sharma, Webverbal exists to bridge the gap between grassroots entrepreneurship and institutional understanding by documenting signals, founder psychology, startup execution realities, consumer behaviour shifts, and MSME growth patterns shaping India’s future economy.
The Principle of Two Indias
“My fusion of breath and mantra brings the equanimity to upscale my prana shakti. My breath is for the haven’ts in the remotest corners; my mantra is for the haves in the innovation labs.”
From Corporate Systems To Grassroots Entrepreneurship
Debansh Das Sharma spent more than a decade working across leadership and business development roles before stepping deeply into India’s grassroots entrepreneurial realities through Classystreet, a handloom-focused ecommerce platform launched in 2015.
The journey through Odisha’s weaving ecosystems, local markets, MSME realities, and Bharat consumer behaviour transformed his understanding of entrepreneurship. It revealed that India’s biggest entrepreneurial opportunity was not only technology — but trust, distribution, behavioural insight, and execution clarity.
This led to the creation of Webverbal and MybrandPitch — platforms designed to empower Bharat entrepreneurs, democratize startup intelligence, and create institutional visibility for founders beyond metro ecosystems.

कॉर्पोरेट की दुनिया छोड़कर, मैंने Webverbal के जरिए असली भारत को चुना।
2015 में Classystreet से सीख मिली कि भारत के असली फाउंडर AC ऑफिस में नहीं, गांवों में हैं। उन्हें VC फंडिंग नहीं, सही डिजिटल टूल्स चाहिए।
स्टार्टअप सिर्फ अंग्रेजी बोलने वालों का खेल नहीं है। हम टियर-2 और 3 शहरों (Bharat) के लिए बिजनेस को आसान बना रहे हैं।
मंत्र: वैल्युएशन (Valuation) नहीं, प्रॉफिट और इंपैक्ट पर ध्यान दो।

வணக்கம்! இது Webverbal-ன் கதை
கார்ப்பரேட் கனவுகளை விட்டுவிட்டு, பாரதத்தின் எதார்த்தத்தை நான் தேர்ந்தெடுத்தேன்.
2015-ல் Classystreet மூலம் உணர்ந்தேன்: உண்மையான தொழில்முனைவோர்கள் கிராமங்களிலும் வயல்களிலும் இருக்கிறார்கள்.
தொழில் செய்வது ஆங்கிலம் தெரிந்தவர்களுக்கு மட்டுமல்ல. சிறு நகர மக்களும் சாதிக்க வேண்டும்.
• NITI Aayog Mentor: மாணவர்களுக்கு பயிற்சி.
• MyBrandPitch: கிராமப்புற தொழில்முனைவோருக்கான புதிய தளம்.
