In whole of 2008, Indian Startups raised $1 Billion in VC money, which was a record. Today, it raises that much in 2 weeks. Talk about growth 👏.

As religion-based politics rise in India, the other side will use language, caste and regionalism to counter it and stay relevant. It's simple to understand. Everyone wants power. Or at least the illusion of it. The sad thing is, these events will continue to rise over.

Rapido is doing what ONDC could not. It is challenging the Swiggy and Zomato duopoly. It will charge restaurants half the commission compared to the existing ones. Also, unlike ONDC, Rapido has experience dealing with a large fleet of delivery partners. Rapido has 2 million

The biggest winner from Ather's IPO is not its founders or early investors like Tiger Global. It is IIT Madras's Incubation Cell. In the early days of Ather, IITM's incubation cell got a 5% stake in the company in exchange for giving them office space, access to labs and

Bring old Twitter back, where people said things they wanted to say. Not this engagement farming sh*t, where everyone wants views and engagement, to make money. Monetisation has ruined Twitter 🥲.
