INCEPTION STORY
People call it a biography or success story but for Mr. Dhrumil Shah, it’s a lifetime memory and journey of learning with gaining experience.
Mr. Dhrumil Shah Founder of Dsquare electronics feels proud to have the opportunity to share the startup success story here with you all.
While pursuing his Engineering from Babaria Institute of Technology (BIT), Vadodara (2008-2012); for his last year project, he chose to do an industry defined project ( IDP ) and started his search for the same. He mailed his resumes to many companies in hope to get an internship and also carry out IDP. Sadly that didn’t work out. So he started visiting companies personally. Most of the companies refused to provide internship to fresher’s while some companies refused to share their project details.
After some time he got an interview with G-TEK Corporation Pvt. Ltd., Vadodara and was interviewed by Mr. Asutosh Shah (Director of G-TEK Co.) and Mr. Madakant Patel (Ex. ISRO). He particularly remembers this part where he was asked to present a new/unique project idea and he told them that instead of banner advertisement on the back of a rickshaw, one can put a LED display so that vendors can advertise their products by GSM, sending one simple message from their mobile. The rickshaw driver just had to switch on the display whenever he was working and the advertisements would be displayed in a loop for certain time period.
They pointed out one major flaw in his idea that our government does not allow led displays behind vehicles to avoid accidents. However, they were quite impressed with his line of thought and he got appointed there as an intern.
After 4-5 months of training, he appeared in campus interview and was about to get selected in MATRIX for Marketing and sales position. He discussed this part with his senior and he gave him a counter offer to work for his company in full time as Embedded Design Engineer.
Mr. Dhrumil chose to work with G-TEK as he was offered his desired position. The working atmosphere there was very good and also he was familiar with most of the staff. G-TEK played a major role in molding him and foundation of Dsquare Electronics because after that electronics and programming became his passion.
With the professional designing experience of almost 3 years, he left G-TEK in Aug. 2014 to fulfill his dream of becoming an entrepreneur. In no time he realized that before setting up a business, many factors had to be considered and to have a deep market knowledge was essential so he started putting his efforts into doing so.
Meanwhile, he started working for Ecube India solutions limited. His work period there was very short, most likely a month because of some problems.
Once he went out with friends and was strained at the thought of being jobless and getting married in less than 2 months. His friend Dr.Mosam was with him, a thought startled Mosam and he asked, “How awesome would it be if I could control everything in my house with my phone?” This very moment Mr. Dhrumil got the idea of making something that operates electrical appliances in the house with just one click.
After some thought, he came up with company name, “DSQUARE ELECTRONICS” (Dsquare as in Dynamically Designed) in JAN 2015.
In March 2015 he came up with D2Brain Home Automation System® (his product) concept and launched his product catalog in Aug 2015. D2Brain is used in home automation. It can operate your lights, fans, AC, curtain’s movement, basically all electrical appliances remotely thus providing safety, convenience, control and comfort with savings. It works in support of a D2Brain application available on android and apple store.
Mr. Dhrumil says, “This was just the tip of the iceberg, main work started from here. As I was new to the market, I had no contacts and so it was difficult for clients to put their faith in me or my product. It was a very difficult phase for me but I remained optimistic and continued my hard work. I ran after them just to get a chance of proving what I can do because at that time I did not have any demo to show them. I even told them not to pay a single penny if they were not happy with my work. After a lot of effort, I was able to get two projects.”
He automated a jewelry shop with mobile interface and after that, he worked for a client for his house project. The client was so pleased with his innovation that he referred Mr. Dhrumil to a friend. With these references & support of a relative, he met one of Vadodara’s finest architecture and worked a few projects with him. So his journey began with the support of the business tycoons.
After completing 4 to 5 projects, workload increased and it was not possible for him to handle everything so he hired two technicians and started building tech team.
From Aug 2015 to Aug 2017, this product kept getting enhanced/upgraded. He also integrates audio-visual & security automation according to the market requirement of his clients.
He started arrangements for buying an office/live tech experience center in Nov 2016 which ultimately got delayed due to demonetization & GST. He got quite depressed at that time as everything seemed to be falling apart. His father came to him and said these wise words, “GOD HAS PERFECT TIMING; NEVER EARLY, NEVER LATE. IT TAKES A LITTLE PATIENCE & FAITH BUT IT’S WORTH THE WAIT”.
Eventually, he bought the office and inaugurated his live tech experience center with huge success in March 2017. All he could sum up was, “I was refining all this time and now it’s my time to shine…”
Since the startup, Mr. Dhrumil has successfully completed 150+ projects with different architects and numerous are under execution. Now Mr. Dhrumil not known but this individual has become a successful technology solution provider company with the diversified team of engineers.

Inception Story
People commonly refer to it as a biography or success narrative, but for Mr. Dhrumil Shah, it encapsulates a lifetime of memories and a journey filled with learning and experience.
As the Founder of Dsquare Electronics, Mr. Dhrumil Shah takes pride in sharing his startup success story with all of you.
During his Engineering studies at Babaria Institute of Technology (BIT), Vadodara (2008-2012), he decided to undertake an industry-defined project (IDP) for his final-year project. In his quest for an internship related to IDP, he sent out numerous resumes to companies, hoping for a positive response. Unfortunately, that approach didn't yield results. Undeterred, he took the initiative to visit companies in person. While most declined to offer internships to freshers, others were hesitant to disclose their project details.
They highlighted a significant flaw in his concept—government regulations prohibit LED displays behind vehicles to prevent accidents. Despite this, they were highly impressed with his innovative thinking, leading to his appointment as an intern at the company.
After completing 4-5 months of training, he participated in a campus interview and was on the verge of securing a position in MATRIX for Marketing and sales. During this decision-making phase, he discussed his options with a senior, who countered with a tempting offer for a full-time role as an Embedded Design Engineer in his company.
Opting for G-TEK, Mr. Dhrumil chose to align with his preferred position. The positive working environment and familiarity with the staff at G-TEK played a pivotal role in shaping him, laying the foundation for Dsquare Electronics. This experience ignited his passion for electronics and programming.
After gaining nearly 3 years of professional design experience, he departed from G-TEK in August 2014 to pursue his dream of becoming an entrepreneur. Quickly realizing the intricacies involved in setting up a business, he understood the importance of in-depth market knowledge and began investing his efforts into acquiring it.
Meanwhile, he briefly worked at Ecube India Solutions Limited, likely for about a month due to some issues. One day, while grappling with the pressures of impending unemployment and an upcoming marriage within two months, he went out with friends, including his friend Dr. Mosam. The anxiety about his situation sparked a conversation, and Dr. Mosam mused, "How amazing would it be if I could control everything in my house with my phone?" This moment served as the inspiration for Mr. Dhrumil to create a solution that could operate household electrical appliances with a single click.
After thoughtful consideration, he coined the company name "DSQUARE ELECTRONICS" (Dsquare representing Dynamically Designed) in January 2015. By March 2015, he conceptualized and launched the D2Brain Home Automation System®—his innovative product. The product catalog was introduced in August 2015. D2Brain revolutionizes home automation by enabling remote control of lights, fans, AC, curtain movements, and essentially all electrical appliances. This not only ensures safety and convenience but also offers control and comfort, all while promoting energy savings. The system operates seamlessly with the D2Brain application, available on both Android and Apple stores.
Mr. Dhrumil reflects, "The initial phase was just the beginning; the real work commenced here. Being a newcomer to the market without any contacts posed a challenge, making it difficult for clients to trust me or my product. Despite facing these hurdles, I remained optimistic and persisted with my hard work. I relentlessly pursued clients, seeking a chance to demonstrate my capabilities, even without a demo at that time. I went to the extent of assuring them not to pay a penny if they weren't satisfied with my work. After considerable effort, I secured two projects."
The first involved automating a jewelry shop with a mobile interface, followed by a residential project for a client. The client was impressed with Mr. Dhrumil's innovation, leading to a referral to a friend. With these references and the support of a relative, he connected with one of Vadodara's esteemed architects and collaborated on several projects. Thus, his journey began with the backing of influential figures in the business.
As the workload increased after completing 4 to 5 projects, Mr. Dhrumil recognized the need for additional support and hired two technicians, establishing the foundation of his tech team.
Between August 2015 and August 2017, continuous enhancements and upgrades were made to the D2Brain Home Automation System®. Mr. Dhrumil also incorporated audio-visual and security automation in response to the evolving needs of his clients and the market.
In November 2016, Mr. Dhrumil initiated plans to acquire an office/live tech experience center, a process that faced delays due to the impact of demonetization and the implementation of GST. This period brought him a sense of despair as it seemed like everything was unraveling. During this challenging time, his father shared words of wisdom, stating, "God has perfect timing; never early, never late. It takes a little patience and faith, but it's worth the wait."
Despite the setbacks, Mr. Dhrumil persevered, and in March 2017, he successfully purchased the office and inaugurated the live tech experience center, marking it with significant success. Reflecting on his journey, he expressed, "I was refining all this time, and now it's my time to shine."
Since the inception of his startup, Mr. Dhrumil has accomplished over 150 projects, collaborating with various architects, and numerous projects are currently in progress. What started as an individual effort has transformed into a thriving technology solutions provider company, boasting a diverse team of engineers.
