Meet the Founders

We’ve lived through the cracks in the system. Now we’re building the bridge

  • Renu & I met in junior college while pursuing Arts

    Phalguni and Renu

    Enrolled in BMM (Advertising) at SIES Nerul College.

    My father fell sick and underwent gall bladder surgery. During his recovery, I took over one of his business projects  producing trophies for Films Division. I handled execution, vendor coordination, and assembly for 1.5 months.

    2016

    2015

    My father collapsed at home due to chronic kidney disease. I still remember that moment  he was lying on the floor, unable to speak. I panicked and called our family doctor to come home. We somehow managed to get him to the hospital, but the auto driver refused to drop us at the hospital door because “it was inconvenient for me to reverse my auto.” That was the first time I faced the cruel gaps in our emergency response system

    2017

    For the next three years, my father’s life became a cycle of hospitalisations, doctor consultations, medication management, lab tests, insurance paperwork, and constant monitoring. Each time I checked his vitals, I was terrified of what the results might show. Two doctors bluntly told me: “Your father won’t live much longer.” But he survived  fighting through  until COVID changed everything.

    2017–2020

    He was stable, though on dialysis twice a week. But during the pandemic, beds were scarce. In July, our entire family tested COVID positive. My father was admitted to a nephrology hospital in Mumbai a decision we later realised would cost him his life. For 11 days, he received wrong medication, wrong treatment, and there was no direct contact with the doctor. We didn’t even know if he was eating. By the end of those 11 days, he couldn’t drink water. We rushed him to another hospital, but the damage was done doctors told us his intestines were burned and had holes due to incorrect treatment.

    I still remember the last call from him: “Now I feel better.” But the next day, he collapsed, was put on a ventilator, and passed away

    I was in my final year of my Master’s degree when I made a decision, I would create a remote hospitalisation system so no one else would lose a loved one because of systemic failure.

    Phalguni

    Started working as a freelance graphic designer I worked with local and Global clients learn how to sell services and deal with difficult clients on the side I was researching and pitching to investors.

    Many told me it was too large a project and advised starting with something smaller.

    2021 - 2023

    Phalguni

    After months of thought, I chose to begin with emergency care , the first, most crucial step towards medical help. Founded Nine Hesh Solutions with Renu Seshadri to formally begin my journey of fixing the healthcare system.

    Renu

    I was on the lookout for jobs in the mental health field. I got my first proper job as a psychologist and that is where my real work experience began. I was seeing clients and families who were affected by COVID and the various pandemic phases. This is when I started to really understand the importance of the project Phalguni was working on.

    While gaining more and more experience as a mental health professional and trying to understand my work better, took a crucial decision to step in as a director of Nine Hesh Solutions Private Ltd and work alongside her on JUNE Emergency app.

2023

I started working full-time on the project, using my savings and taking on design projects on the side. Conducted a detailed market survey to understand our target market and user needs.

2024

We Tested demand through a landing page showcasing the solution, with a download CTA. We received 9,000+ downloads, proving strong interest. Began building an MVP using no-code platforms:

  • AppSheet – Took 3 months to build but couldn’t launch due to limitations in tracking user behaviour, bookings, and feedback.

  • Glide – Built in 2 months with a better database, but faced similar launch issues and capital constraints.

Approached investors again, but they said: “Have an MVP and give us some traction first.”

2025

Set the goal to start generating revenue to fund a reliable MVP  because when saving lives, you can’t build something cheap and risky. Started developing a non-emergency feature for revenue generation.
Got Pre-incubated at the NSRCEL WSP IIM program, which provided expert sessions and mentoring. Built a POC and conducted user testing, achieving a 92% success rate

Despite all this proven data, some investors still fail to grasp the urgency and importance of the JUNE app. They want us to create something that gains traction first, but this isn’t about testing a gadget  this is about people’s lives.

The Emergency Care Challenge in India. Research & Expert Evidence

Why JUNE is needed

These points make it clear that the system is fragmented, delayed, and under-equipped and YOU and I can easily become victims of these short falls.

So, how do you plan to save yourself and your family?

Bystander Intervention Rates Are Shockingly Low

cpr

Only 1.3% to 9.8% of Indian cardiac arrest cases see bystander CPR compared to much higher global rates signaling a pervasive lack of response readiness

Why JUNE is needed

The Emergency Care Challenge in India — Research & Expert Evidence

CPR Awareness Is Nearly Nonexistent

Studies show less than 2% of India’s population is trained in CPR far below the ~30% needed for effective bystander response

cpr

In New Delhi, only 44.3% knew the correct compression-to-breath ratio, and just 42% were aware of appropriate compression depth—critical for CPR to work

Bystander Intervention Rates Are Shockingly Low

cpr

Only 1.3% to 9.8% of Indian cardiac arrest cases see bystander CPR—compared to much higher global rates—signaling a pervasive lack of response readiness

Infrastructure & Traffic Challenges Increase Delays

In Jaipur, blocked service roads and misused lanes delay ambulances by up to

traffic

10 minutes, even when using “priority lanes” underscoring systemic traffic barriers to timely care

Severe Shortage of Trained Emergency Physicians 

physician shortage

India has only fulfilled 5% of its needed emergency physician capacity. Annually, ~1,000 emergency specialists are produced including formal and certificate training combined far below national need

Overstretched Emergency Doctors Face Burnout

doctor burnout

n Jharkhand, despite a WHO recommendation of 1 doctor per 1,000 population, there are only 10,000 doctors for 32.5 million people leading to exhausting overwork, skipped meals, and mental health strain among emergency professionals
