The UNBELIEVABLE story of how Mr. Uday Kotak almost lost his life 🤯

Yeah, you read that right! He had slipped into a coma!

How one of India’s most well-known BFSI franchises would not have been born if a 10-minute delay would have happened 😯

@udaykotak
It was when Mr. Uday Kotak was 20 years old in 1979 and he was playing cricket when the unthinkable happened

He flicked a shot between the covers and as he was mining between the wickets, a fielder flung the ball back to the stumps in order to get him run out
The ball hit him on the head and he collapsed (they used to play fast bowling under all kinds of conditions without any helmets and no regulations on bouncers)

He doesn't remember how all of it happened but the competitive spirit in him prevailed

Jeff Bezos is really something else -

In January 2002, Amazon reported its first profitable quarter, posting net income of $5 million, a meager but symbolic penny per share. Marketing costs were down, international revenues from the UK and Germany were up,
sales from third-party sellers on the vaunted Amazon platform made up 15% of the company's orders. The exclamation point on the accomplishment was that Amazon had turned a profit by both controversial pro forma accounting standards and conventional methods.
Amazon had finally shown the world that it wasn't just another doomed dot-com. The stock price immediately jumped 25% in after-hours trading, clawing its way out of the single digits.

A really cool unheard story of Nykaa and the founder Falguni Nayar!

Mr. Uday Kotak speaks of Falguni Nayar's stint at Kotak -

"We had started a consulting division in KMFL. A year after she joined us, Sanjay Nayar, her husband, who was working in Citibank, was posted to London
Like a typical Indian wife, she wanted to join him. So, we took a view - We said, 'Falguni if you go to London, we will set up a London office. We want to do sales and trading in equities and in GDRs. Why don't you set it up?
So, Falguni set up our London office. Kotak Mahindra (UK) happened because of Falguni. After two years, Sanjay was transferred to New York. We said, Great! Falguni set up New York: By then, we had already set up a JV with Goldman.
