Ramesh Babu’s office is in Ejipura, Bengaluru that filled with small cars like Mini Mercs, a Rolls Royce and even a few vintage models. He just collected these from many cities and countries over 24 years it was added when started the office three years ago. Also said his son has a bigger collection at home,”.

Ramesh isn’t just a regular collector of cars and collecting cars is not an unusual hobby. Lined outside his office are dozens of cars which are the luxury that full-sized and not miniatures. Also some not even available in India, all part of Ramesh Tours & Travels are started when Ramesh as a Barber invested in his first car in 1993.

Ramesh was born and raised in Bengaluru, lost his father in 1979 at his early age and found his family marsh in poverty. Ramesh father left a saloon on Brigade Road, and his uncle took care of it and paid ₹5 each day to Ramesh, the entrepreneur recalls. Those early years weren’t easy, as Ramesh, his mother, grandmother, and siblings struggled for even basics like food and clothing.

“Ramesh’s mom took a job as a maid and earned ₹40-50 per month that used for everything, from our fees, books, clothes, and everything. They will get new clothes once a year, and that will be managed the rest with school uniforms including old clothes.”

In the middle of his car business, time of the 2000s, Ramesh received an offer from Mercedes India to buy a model. He had been kept eyes on the models for a few years and saw an opportunity. He put together his small savings and built the rest of the amount from a bank loan.

The EMI rates were high, and he was scared. But at that time, nobody else invested this much of money in cars like these and had an advantage. The business went well, and the year later, he bought a second Mercedes model.

“Running a business like this can be scary when things come to a sudden halt. In 2011 he bought Rolls-Royce which was expensive and the government levied heavy taxes. He was almost bankrupted and even mortgaged his wife’s jewellery. People in surrondings told him to sell the car. But he kept trying and one and half years later he finally managed to succeed again.”
