Day by day due to increasing interest in computers, his association with studies continued to break. Although under pressure from father, he enrolled for B.Com but never went to college. Throughout the day, both brothers used to keep coding at home. After gaining a tremendous hold in coding, these brothers planned to start their own businesses. But the biggest difficulty in starting the business was with the initial capital.

Both brothers somehow persuaded the father and in the year 1998, the father agreed to give 25 thousand rupees as loan. At that time, these brothers did not even think that they would join the billionaire club after 16 years. At the age of 16, along with his 18-year-old brother Bhavin Turkhiya, he set up the website's domain name company Directi with this money. Directives used to provide websites and internet services to Indian companies. Later 'BigRock' was born under the banner of this company, which is today a leading domain registrar company.
