Zerodha CEO and co-founder Nithin Kamath took to social media to point our how the offices of the online broking platform saved on water bills by using a product rejected by Shark Tank India.
Kamath said Zerodha offices have been using the product Zerodor for men's urinals for around half a year during which the water bill were brought down by 50 per cent.
We have been using Zerodor (@EkamEco) for the men’s urinals at our offices for the last six months or so. Our water bills are down 50%—we did not expect it to be this much.

What is Zerodor?
Zerodor is owned by Uttam Banerjee's Ekam Eco Solutions, which claims that these waterless urinals are cost-efficient, controls odour and reduces wastage of water. The plumbing kit can be retrofitted to any regular urinal pan.
Kamath said the company was impressed by the product as it does whatever necessary to save water. Through its Rainmatter Capital initiative, Zerodha is funding Zerodor, he added.
Zerodor also has another product for women that can control odour.
Kamath shared a video of Banerjee pitching his company on Shark Tank India. The only offer Zerodor got was from Peyush Bansal who said he would invest Rs 1 crore for 10 per cent equity, if Banerjee folds up his other businesses.
