Interviews carried out with successful entrepreneurs in India reveal some compelling factors that determine success for those entrepreneurs who started all over again. These factors include personal attributes, strategic business practices, and strategies to overcome challenges. Successful entrepreneurs often present aspects such as resilience, adaptability, and determination. They have a strong personal drive to do well; in addition, they are risk takers who know the right time to take calculated risks. Learning from failure and staying with it during crunch times however is a must for smooth operation and execution of the business. Effective financial management is one of the strategic practices undertaken by these entrepreneurs through market analysis and customer relationship management. They are always proactive about the need of the market and taking proper adaptation according to it. Innovation, networking, and embracing technology are also prominently featured in their business models. Successful entrepreneurs are able to respond to a whole array of challenges: financial constraints, market competition, and regulatory hurdles among others. They devise coping mechanisms such as sourcing external funding, acquiring mentorship, or partnerships and often engage in continuous learning for the upliftment of business acumen
