What started as a simple idea in a small room has now turned into a media brand read by millions of people every month.
It all began in a quiet village of West Bengal, where two friends — Krishna Chandra Garain and Koushik Dutta — sat together one ordinary afternoon in February 2022. With nothing more than a laptop, a modest internet connection, and a shared dream, they decided to create something extraordinary: a digital news platform that would bring real, local, and useful stories to people who are often ignored by mainstream media.
From a Small Room to a National Reach
What started as a simple idea in a small room has now turned into a media brand read by millions of people every month.
Today, India Hood stands as a powerful example of what pure determination, honesty, and hard work can achieve — without any external funding or massive resources.
From those early days of struggling with limited tools, India Hood has grown into Hoodgen Pvt. Ltd., with a passionate team of more than 20 dedicated professionals. The platform now reaches millions through its website, push notifications, email newsletters, and WhatsApp updates — all built organically, without paid traffic.
Two Languages, One Vision
India Hood operates through two distinct platforms, both serving different audiences but carrying the same mission — to make authentic information accessible to all.
Indiahood.in (Bengali): Focused on hyperlocal news, weather updates, kolkata gold rate, government schemes, and cultural stories from every district of West Bengal.
Indiahood.com (English): Covering national-level stories on startups, business trends, digital transformation, and financial insights for a broader audience.
By blending regional journalism with modern digital storytelling, India Hood has carved a niche that bridges rural India with the digital world.
No Funding, Only Passion
“We never waited for funding; we just started,” says co-founder Koushik Dutta. “Our biggest strength is the trust of people — especially from small towns and villages who believe in what we publish.”
Co-founder Krishna Chandra Garain adds, “We didn’t chase trending headlines. Instead, we focused on stories people could connect with — stories that matter, that reflect real life, and that empower.”
What Makes India Hood Different
While many media platforms rely heavily on paid promotions and viral trends, India Hood has grown purely through authentic content and organic trust. The team believes in delivering value first — whether through weather updates, government schemes, or insightful articles that directly impact daily lives.
This authenticity has made India Hood not just a media outlet, but a movement of meaningful journalism.
The Impact
Today, India Hood’s presence stretches far beyond Bengal. From cities to remote villages, millions of readers access its news through phones, apps, and emails — proving that true journalism doesn’t need a budget, only belief.
Its success has inspired countless young creators and entrepreneurs, showing that even from a small village, you can build something that reaches the whole nation.
More Than a Platform — A Symbol of Possibility
India Hood is more than a website.
It’s the story of two dreamers who dared to believe that hard work and truth can outshine money and marketing.
