Shravan Kumar Vishwakarma’s story is one of determination and upward mobility. Starting his working life as a tempo driver, Vishwakarma steadily built his way into entrepreneurship, eventually establishing Shankh Agencies Private Limited, a diversified business operating across building materials, ceramics, concrete and wholesale trading.
Over the years, Vishwakarma expanded his business interests with a long-term vision of entering aviation, one of India’s most competitive and capital-intensive sectors. That ambition has now taken a concrete step forward with his airline venture, Shankh Air, receiving a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Ministry of Civil Aviation.

The approval marks a significant personal milestone for Vishwakarma, symbolising how far he has come from his early days behind the wheel. While Shankh Air plans to connect key cities in Uttar Pradesh and surrounding regions, the larger story remains Vishwakarma’s transformation from a grassroots worker into a first-generation aviation entrepreneur.
His journey reflects the changing face of Indian entrepreneurship, where ambition, persistence and calculated risk-taking can help individuals rise beyond their circumstances and enter industries once considered inaccessible.
