Meet man, no MBA, no degree, he stands at one place, earns in lakhs! how Auto driver doesn't ride for single KM but earns…
When we see stories about people earning lakhs they are usually MBAs or IITians. But today, we are talking about an auto driver from Mumbai who earns lakhs every month without any app, office, or business degree.
According to the post by Rahul Rupani, an autorickshaw driver earns in lakhs per month, without even driving an autorickshaw like other auto drivers.
The U.S. The Embassy is located with heavy security in almost all the countries including India. Without a valid reason or permission entering the premises or even standing outside is also prohibited. However, right outside the gates of the U.S. Consulate in Mumbai, there's a person earning lakhs every month. This is the story of an auto driver, as reported by ET. Auto Driver Earns In Lakhs
An auto-rickshaw driver has quietly built an unknown business that gives him Rs 5 to Rs 8 lakh per month. He doesn't drive his rickshaw a single kilometer but only stands in one place and earns in Lakhs. Who Are His Customers?
This unique business idea came from a problem faced by people visiting the U.S. Consulate for visa applications. Every day, many people arrive at the consulate, but they encounter a common issue that they're not allowed to take bags inside. There is no official locker facility nearby. Due to which people struggle to store their essential documents, electronics, or personal items.
This became an opportunity for an auto driver. He identified the need and started a simple yet effective service. What Does An Auto Driver Do?
The auto driver started offering a temporary storage service for visa applicants' bags. He parks near the consulate's entrance and charges Rs 1,000 to securely hold their belongings until their appointment is over. People in a hurry for their visa interview often have no other choice but pay him a small fee rather than missing an appointment.
The auto driver is the first point of contact. But he also uses a locker facility provided by a local police officer nearby.
The officer provides access to a trusted locker facility where the bags are stored by the auto driver. Auto Driver's Earnings
On an average day, he handles 20–30 customers and earns Rs 20,000 to Rs 30,000 per day. This makes his earnings in Lakhs per month.

SIS, GIPE trades charges again as they fight over funds, bank account
The strained relations between the Servants of India Society (SIS) and its institute Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics (GIPE) is once again out in the open with both the bodies trading charges of wrongdoing against each other. While addressing the media in Pune on Thursday, Vishal Gaikwad, officiating deputy registrar of GIPE accused the SIS of freezing the bank accounts of the institute. On his part Damodar Sahoo, chairman of SIS, claimed that GPIE had unilaterally converted the jointly held bank account of the institute to a single-operated one which had prompted SIS to write the bank. Gaikwad said, as per University Grants Commission (UGC) norms, the sponsoring society does not have rights over the bank accounts of the institute. 'We learnt from the banks that our accounts were frozen. We managed to get them unfrozen but this is a gross violation of rules,' he claimed. Gaikwad said they have written to the Deccan Police to include the name of Sahoo in the ongoing case of allegedly fraudulently transferring Rs 1.42 crores from GIPE for the use of SIS. 'We have also written to the charity commissioner asking for the present board of SIS to be dismissed and appointment of a neural observer in its place,' he said. Relations between SIS and GIPE have soured since the last year with both the bodies trading charges against each other. GIPEs chancellor Sanjeev Sanyal had made serious allegations against Sahoo and others of misappropriating funds. Sanyal was swiftly removed from his position by Sahoo but was reinstated. Milind Deshmukh, the secretary of the SIS was arrested by the Deccan Police for his role in the multi-crore corruption scandal that had rocked the institute. Deshmukh was later removed from his position and is out on bail now. Sahoo on his part claimed that GIPE had unilaterally deviated from the convention of jointly operated accounts which had prompted the SIS to write to the bank. 'The GPIE had not intimated of the conversion of the account to single operated,' he said. Asked about the formation of an advisory committee which Gaikwad had termed as illegal, Sahoo said the committee was for better coordination between both the bodies.
