The post claimed that this shop sells around 400 cups of tea every day. This results in daily sales of around Rs 6 thousand, which means a turnover of around Rs 1 lakh 80 thousand in a month. Rent and electricity also have to be paid.
A post on social media platform X is becoming increasingly viral these days. In this, a person has shared the story of his neighbour, who left his job of Rs 38,000 per month and opened a tea shop and now claims to be earning well from it. This post was shared by X user Ankit Pandey. He told that his neighbor had recently come to his house with a box of sweets. Actually, he has expanded his shop and distributed sweets in this happiness. This story has sparked a new debate on social media regarding the choice between job and business.
According to Ankit Pandey, his neighbor earlier worked in a company and got a salary of around Rs 38 thousand every month. He left the job in the month of May. At that time many people considered his decision wrong, because he had given up a permanent job. After this, he invested about Rs 2 lakh and opened a tea shop near an auto stand. Two female employees were kept in the shop, who work to make tea and serve it to the customers. The shop sells normal tea for Rs 10 and premium tea for Rs 20.
Selling around 400 cups of tea every day
The post claimed that this shop sells around 400 cups of tea every day. This results in daily sales of around Rs 6 thousand, which means a turnover of around Rs 1 lakh 80 thousand in a month. Talking about expenses, every month about Rs 25 thousand is spent on rent, Rs 30 thousand on salaries of employees, about Rs 25 thousand on electricity and raw materials. After all these expenses, the shop owner claims to be left with a monthly income of around Rs 1 lakh. Not only this, he has now also started a counter of Vada Pav, Samosa and Jalebi in his shop. The reason for distributing sweets was also said to be the celebration of this new expansion.
What did people say on the viral post
Ankit Pandey wrote in his post that if his neighbor had remained in the job, then perhaps even today he would have been waiting for the salary of Rs 38 thousand and the next increase in salary. He wrote that sometimes the biggest promotion is the one that a person decides for himself. Different reactions of people came to this post. Some people called it an example of courage and confidence, while many said that with proper planning and hard work, even a small business can give good income. However, this entire story is based on a claim shared on social media. These claims have not been independently verified.
