Established over a decade ago, Hyderabad-based Rasha Infrastructure (www.rashainfra.com) is a fully integrated waste management services provider. Initially, the firm was engaged in a construction-related business, and in 2016 it commenced supply and maintenance of waste management equipment, tow truck, etc.

Rasha Infrastructure was founded by Sai Puneeth Reddy, a Mechanical Engineering graduate. With some friends, Reddy started a company in 2009, which executed projects relating to irrigation, roads, cyclone homes, and mining. All of this was undertaken in the remote areas of Bihar, Karnataka, West Bengal, and Jharkhand, and in less than four years, the firm was able to earn more than 150 crores in revenue.

An epitome of a determined individual and a good leader, Reddy is channelling his several years of industry experience to Rasha. Under his leadership, the company tapped the niche market segment of waste management. Here, he helped in bridging the knowledge of older generations and the availability of new technology, that aided in the formulation of eProcurement platforms and eventually of Mechanised Secondary Garbage Handling Systems.

Services offered by Rasha include:

• Primary Waste Collection: This includes dry and wet waste collection from various collection points.
• Secondary Transportation: This involves the collection of dust accumulated at various garbage transfer stations and transferring it to government-provided dumping yards.
• Treatment: Here, they use biological, chemical, or mechanical methods to remove pollutants from waste, and change the character of medical waste to eliminate its potential harm to humans and the environment.
• Bio-Mining: The firm is also involved in designing, constructing, operating, and maintaining bio-mining in various municipalities.
• Street Sweeping: From cleaning litter to animal waste, the firm also cleans filth on the streets using licensed vehicles.
• Customised Equipment for Traffic Police: From providing tow trucks to traffic police to recovering vehicles damaged in accidents, Rasha provides various customized equipment.

The firm mainly takes government contracts, and its major clients include Visakhapatnam Municipal Corp. and Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corp. In the next five years, Rasha intends to expand its services to more than 50 cities across India.
