Success story of Vijay Shekhar Sharma, the founder of Paytm




The boy who belonged from a small village in Aligarh was born to a man who was a highly principled school teacher. He finished his secondary schooling at the age of 14. However, his entire education being in Hindi, he did not know to read and write English and soon found that it was necessary to learn the subject to get into a good college.
He took the challenge positively and started learning the language by borrowing books from his friends and reaching out to old magazines. He took two books at the same time where the first would be a Hindi version and the second one an English one. The first bencher boy when admitted to an engineering college in Delhi soon became a part of the back benchers. Soon, his good grades turned into bad, and he completely stopped attending his college.
