Indian Startups Need To Wake Up 😮

Indian Startups Need To Wake Up 😮

In the last two years, there have been at least 7 high-profile cases, where startups either lied to their investors about their numbers or there was some other financial irregularity.

This includes cases like BharatPe, Zilingo, Broker Network, GoMechanic, and most recently Mojo Care, where founders lied about their numbers.

Now a major reason behind this is ‘Valuation Greed’. Investors and Promoters of a startup push for higher valuation at any cost, as that will give them a profitable exit.

This forces founders to take such steps and fudge their numbers, which ultimately kills the startup.

And to avoid this, founders and investors have to find ways to grow sustainably and look at the long picture, rather than growing too fast and dying.

Indian startups need to value their employees. Rest employees will take care of everything. In name of startup culture companies demand for anytime availability but when it comes to salary they say they are startup

Find a real market.

They becoming entrepreneurs not because they have some unique idea. They are becoming entrepreneurs for the sake of becoming entrepreneur. In the end they just want to sell their company for higher valuation. These guys aren't passionate about their product, they are only passionate about money. Most of the big companies started from one room but these guys wants investors, big office, luxury car from day 1. When it's not your money which is at stake you don't care about business.
