After completing his post-graduate degree in Business Management, Pramod thought of starting a small business manufacturing toys which would be both creative as well as educative. This was how the Tiny Toddlers Group, a private shop designing toys for young children, came into being in Hyderabad in the year 2001. The toys manufactured by his company also included educational toys. Within a short period, the company was able to produce toys that caught the children’s imagination.

The company was well known for its high quality and immaculately designed toys for children of different age groups. Over the years, the Tiny Toddlers Group attracted a large number of customers who were satisfied with its products. It also established an online store in 2006 from where customers could purchase toys by linking to the company’s webpage. The company offered a discount on delivery and service charges to those customers who purchased toys in bulk. Participating in the toy exhibition in 2007, the Tiny Toddlers Group attracted the urban population as its products had many special features.
