Delhi, Delhi, India Prosperiti Full time
Location - Delhi with extensive travel to states

Who we are

Prosperiti builds state capacity to increase economic freedom in India.

We are on a mission to catalyse a series of 1991-like reforms at the state level so that entrepreneurs can create more jobs and workers can earn more.

Persuading states to embark on this prosperity journey requires identifying what needs to change in regulation, building consensus on brick-by-brick reform, and making progress iteratively.

We need deep knowledge combined with rolled-up sleeves. This is the promise of what we do.

What we do

We produce insights on state-level regulation, identify opportunities for reforms, help build policy consensus, and assist in implementation. We release issue-specific State of Regulation reports and bi-weekly broadcasts (insights and explainers) to help states make informed decisions. In partner states, we provide design, drafting, and execution support for accelerating regulatory reforms.

Of all the areas that states regulate, for the near term, our focus is to reform labour regulations and building regulations.

Who we work with

We have thus far supported three state governments in their journey to prosperity. In Punjab, we have worked with the government to draft state labour Rules and introduce revised building regulation standards.

In Uttar Pradesh, we are assisting the Department of Labour to introduce reforms to Factories Act, Shops Act, and Contract Labour Acts.

In Tamil Nadu, we assisted the MSME department to draft a chapter on ease of doing business for the Expert Committee MSME Report.

We have also provided research input to the Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister (EAC-PM) on labour regulations.

Our leadership and supporters


Our Co-founders are women leaders with strong relationships in the public policy, media, and philanthropic communities in India and the international liberal network.

Bhuvana Anand, Co-Founder: 18+ years in better regulation, governance, public finance, and political economy.

Career and affiliations across research and development organisations including Centre for Civil Society, DFID, JPAL, Deloitte's Emerging Markets Group, UN, Global Alliance for Mass Entrepreneurship Ease of Doing Business Task Force (India).

Baishali Bomjan, Co-Founder: 20+ years in business development, strategy, communications, organisation development, and media.

Career and affiliations across Indian and international organisations including the Centre for Civil Society, Asia Centre for Enterprise (Atlas Network), India Institute, Centre for Indonesia Policy Studies, and Agaati Foundation.


We are supported by mission-aligned philanthropic foundations and individual patrons including The Convergence Foundation, The Nudge Institute, and The Tree of Life Foundation.

Who we are looking for

This individuals primary role is to support the state government to action our reform recommendations.

In this role, the Senior Analyst will be responsible for identifying regulatory challenges, fact finding and analyses, writing of policy notes, articles, papers, and reports and assisting team leads in implementing strategies to effectively engage with government departments and functionaries.

An ideal Senior Analyst can shapeshift into various roles to achieve project objectives. Our culture prizes openness to ideas, antifragility, honesty, the will to lead change, and a drive for self-improvement. This is of course the dream; each of our analysts is different in temperament and skills. What they do share is curiosity about the world, relentless pursuit of knowledge, and ability to relay with others.
