Genesis

“Success is a journey, not a destination.” Guided by this enduring philosophy, the foundation for a dynamic consultancy practice was laid in 1998 under the banner of M/s Vardaan Consultant, which was formally registered as a proprietorship firm in 2001. The brainchild of Dr. Monika Sinha, the firm was conceived with a clear vision: to pursue excellence in the realm of advisory and developmental services while maintaining an unwavering commitment to ethical conduct and client-centric values.

From its inception, Vardaan Consultant distinguished itself by blending professionalism with a profound social conscience. This dual vision materialized in the establishment of Vardaan Foundation, a separate philanthropic entity created to deliver meaningful interventions in the social development space. The Foundation soon evolved into a collective of like-minded individuals, united by a common mission to serve marginalized communities and enable systemic change through grassroots engagement, capacity-building, and strategic support to various non-profit and development-oriented stakeholders.

Recognizing the expanding scope and complexity of consultancy needs across sectors, a significant transformation was undertaken in 2009. After over a decade of impactful existence, Vardaan Consultant was restructured as a diversified consultancy group under the name M/s H.M. Sinha, led by the dynamic vision of Dr. Harshit Sinha. With a renewed emphasis on multidisciplinary solutions and strategic advisory services, the group evolved to meet the growing demands of an increasingly competitive and rapidly transforming socio-economic landscape.

Despite operating in a climate of intense competition, the organization has remained steadfast in its founding ethos — “service before profit.” This guiding principle continues to inspire every facet of its operations, from high-level policy consulting to grassroots implementation, ensuring that each intervention not only delivers results but also adheres to the highest standards of integrity and social responsibility.

Today, the group operates under the collective identity of “DRHS Consultancy Services”, a name that symbolizes professionalism, trust, and intellectual rigor. The consultancy has expanded to include a broad array of services spanning public policy, corporate social responsibility (CSR), institutional development, sustainability advisory, impact assessment, and capacity-building programs. It proudly draws upon the expertise of a diverse team of highly qualified professionals, representing a wide range of sectors including academia, corporate strategy, market research, governance, environment, public health, ESG, EIA, SIA, R&R, CSR/CER and education.

Each associate within DRHS is handpicked not only for their technical competence but also for their alignment with the firm’s founding values of empathy, diligence, and excellence. Through strategic partnerships, data-driven insights, and participatory methodologies, DRHS Consultancy Services continues to deliver cutting-edge solutions that contribute to sustainable development and inclusive growth.

In essence, the genesis of DRHS is a narrative of principled evolution — a seamless blend of entrepreneurial vision and social commitment — and stands today as a testament to the transformative power of values-driven leadership.
