Disclaimer - I don't *want* Shark Tank India to fail. The world is more fun if it wins...
But wanting something doesn't mean it's going to happen. If it did, then every bag of chips would have more chips and less air.

OK, let's pretend you are the CEO of Sony India.

You might develop new stereotypes after watching that episode that people with disabilities are strong, opinionated, full of confidence, and with hard work, they can triumph over all adversities.
This story is about celebrating inclusion in a very true sense, says #VineetSaraiwala, who runs #AtypicalAdvantage -- which claims to be India’s largest #inclusive #employment platform for people with disabilities across India.

Every #MLM needs an innovative Product.
So here comes an "An Idea + flamboyant Founders who can Pitch + a legal entity" packaged as a Product wherein an existing investor is expected to recruit new investors at higher valuation.

The Investors are more to be blamed for this #MLM
New Age Investors are happy when their money is burnt with no resulting revenue growth because if there is enough revenue; to fund the expense means no need of follow-round
Loss is needed to validate next #Valuation

Grover claimed that the audio clip was “fake” but soon after this, Kotak issued a statement stating that the bank is pursuing “appropriate legal action” against BharatPe’s MD, Ashneer Grover, for the “inappropriate language” used in the call.

So we had featured in #sharktankindia too but our episode has not been telecast due to reasons best known to the Channel & Sharks however I am putting down a thread for the benefit of all my entrepreneurial brethren and the public in general on Shark Tank India.
The show comprises of a 3 minute pitch followed by a Q&A with the sharks. Your pitch is designed by the Channel creatives and mostly you need to stick to it and speak Hindi, at times your USP can get diluted but that's how the scheme of things is.
The Channel will try to make your pitch as simple as possible and in chaste Hindi for the viewers to Understand. Multiple rehearsals will be done for 2 days till late nights till the Channel is sure you are good to go and some guys are given more practice and attention from the
Shark Tank is the kind of show we should appreciate. No doubt it gave us lots of memes but for some people it familiarized them with terms like Equity, Market Value, Valuation, Assets, Liability, Revenue, Margin, Royalty, Patent, Trademark, Copyright.

Equity: If I’m looking for $250,000 for a 25% stake in my business. The 25% stake is the equity that the shark would get if they agreed to that deal. Equity represents ownership of the company.
Market Value: The highest amount that someone is willing to pay for a product (as well as the lowest amount that a seller is willing to sell at).
Valuation: The valuation of the company tells you how much the company as a whole is worth.
Valuation: The valuation of the company tells you how much the company as a whole is worth.

1. Understand the market size, intricacies and gaps:
Go granular. Understand the market at a deeper level and understand the gaps that need to be filled.
Eg: AAS Vidyalaya got the biggest funding (1.5 cr) despite being in a crowded EdTech space by finding a market gap.

2. Being very sure about the market you are NOT in:
Almost equally important is to know what market or customer you are NOT going to serve. This enables a potential investor to better narrow down your target market and understand how your product fits with it.

IN DEFENCE OF #SharkTankIndia : A THREAD

Lets first see why people are hating it?
It had drama..
It was scripted..
Those startups are real startups to start with and even if there is drama (which there is tbh), what's the harm?
Would you guys want to watch 1 hr of Startups pitching metrics to a VC daily? I won't...

And to start with, it's not about us.
