Quick Heal is a completely homegrown anti-virus software company that’s not only beaten big, multi-billion dollar competitors like McAfee and Symantec, but is also taking back the fight to their turfs in other countries around the world. It has come a long way since 1995, when the first version was released for Rs 500, written entirely by Sanjay Katkar, 41, then fresh out of college. His brother, Kailash, 46, a computer repairs businessman, provided the funding and the support. Last year, the profitable company brought in Rs 187 crore in revenue and employed over 550 people, including 120 in their own R&D centre. “They’re growing like a weed while throwing out amazing cash flows. What a great business!” says Sumir Chadha, co-founder and managing director of Westbridge Capital, who is on the board of Quick Heal representing Sequoia Capital.
