Namakkal software company reaches Rs 1.5 crore annual revenue

Founder Eswaran Arumugam grew his venture from a one-person operation into a 26-member team serving seven countries.

Eswaran Arumugam, the founder of Yaa Creations, has grown his software company in the Namakkal district of Tamil Nadu to undertake projects worth Rs 1.5 crore in 2025, according to a Times of India report.

The company, which is based in Rasipuram, currently employs 26 people and serves clients across seven countries, including Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, Qatar and Germany.

Arumugam, whose father was a farmer, began his career in 2011 as a junior software developer in Chennai with a monthly salary of Rs 3,500.

After working for nine years and becoming a technical lead, Arumugam returned to his hometown due to health-related difficulties and started his own venture.

The business initially began with Rs 1 lakh borrowed from his brother to rent a co-working space and purchase two laptops.

The company's project earnings grew from Rs 3 lakh in its first year to Rs 7 lakh, then Rs 10 lakh, and later Rs 30 lakh in subsequent years.
