1
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,600
Sharks, fasten your seatbelts.

2
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:34,880
The game is about to begin.

3
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:36,600
[exciting music]

4
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,400
3, 2, 1.

5
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,280
Go!

6
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,960
[adventrous music]

7
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:47,320
Careful, Amit.

8
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,000
Nice.

9
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:53,920
Hi.

10
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,560
[adventurous music]

11
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:06,480
Whoa.

12
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,800
- That was nice.
- Amazing.

13
00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:16,920
[adventurous music]

14
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,400
[theme music]

15
00:01:40,960 --> 00:01:42,760
[theme music]

16
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,200
[theme music]

17
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,200
Sharks, how did you like it?

18
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:14,440
Very good.

19
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,840
We really enjoyed it.
You all flew them very well.

20
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,320
We felt the same adrenalin rush

21
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,400
when we saw these drones
flying in our college.

22
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:23,680
So we thought

23
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,200
of making these drones ourselves.

24
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,760
And so, when we
started our research,

25
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,400
you will not believe what we saw.

26
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,120
You cannot buy these
drones in India.

27
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,320
- Really? - All these drones
are available abroad.

28
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,760
So what do people do?

29
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,360
They order them in an unauthorised
manner from abroad.

30
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,280
Sharks, do you know

31
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,920
that recently the Indian government

32
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,680
banned flying these drones in India.

33
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,520
Because they were
all foreign drones.

34
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,800
So what would, cinematographers,

35
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,760
YouTubers, students

36
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,200
and commercial photographers
do in this scenario?

37
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,560
Where will they get
these drones from?

38
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,160
That's why we present insideFPV.

39
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:11,360
InsideFPV is India's first
consumer-based

40
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,040
leading drone company.

41
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,800
It manufactures
Plug & Fly FPV drones.

42
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,600
It means you plug in the
battery in the drone

43
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,320
and fly it.

44
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,200
We'll manage the rest of the
technical aspects.

45
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,160
So Sharks, through insideFPV

46
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,600
we want to make drones
pocket friendly in India.

47
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,920
Our drones are listed

48
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,560
at Rs. 2,800 on our website.

49
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,000
You will not get it
anywhere else in India.

50
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,320
We offer services
to our consumers like,

51
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:43,760
one drone crash warranty,

52
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,520
and free consultation
by experienced pilots too.

53
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,320
Our vision is to

54
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,440
make insideFPV
the no. 1 global brand.

55
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,600
And so Sharks, we need
your expertise.

56
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,200
I am Oshi Kumari.

57
00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,480
I am Arth Chowdhary.

58
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,000
And I am Devyant Bhardwaj.

59
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,880
And we are the founders of
team insideFPV.

60
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,680
We are asking for Rs. 75 lakhs
against 4% equity.

61
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:11,600
So Sharks,

62
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,520
are you ready to take
this flight with insideFPV?

63
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,640
- Nice.
- Very nice.

64
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,600
You made a very enthusiastic pitch.

65
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,080
The entry was perfect too.

66
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:22,000
- Thank you, sir.
- So...

67
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,320
Arth, Oshi and Devyant,
welcome to Shark Tank.

68
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,120
Thank you, sir.

69
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,280
Did you start this in college?
How did it begin?

70
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,280
All three of us have studied at the
Vellore Institute of Technology, Vell

71
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:34,280
Lovely.

72
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,360
I have a mechanical background.

73
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,200
Arth has a mechanical
background too.

74
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,640
Devyant has an
electrical background.

75
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,160
I am still studying in my
fourth year of engineering.

76
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,000
And these two graduated
just two days earlier.

77
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,240
- Wow.
- Wow, amazing.

78
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:48,520
Brilliant.

79
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:49,560
Thank you.

80
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,920
Fantastic to see a woman in STEM.

81
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,400
There are very few in our country.

82
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,360
She is India's first
FPV woman pilot too.

83
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,400
- Wow.
- Amazing.

84
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,000
- Well done, Oshi.
- Thank you, ma'am.

85
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,840
So you three made these
drones while studying.

86
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,640
Set up your business.
When do you'll actually study?

87
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,920
Sir, studying was online
for the last two years.

88
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,320
So we did not need to study much.

89
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:15,680
[laughter]

90
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:17,560
- You mean you did not study.
- No.

91
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,240
- You did not study?
- Even then she's a 9-pointer.

92
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,440
What does that mean?

93
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,920
At VIT, 9-pointers
have a lot of benefits.

94
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,760
They don't have to attend classes
and get extra preference everywhere.

95
00:05:27,840 --> 00:05:29,600
- Oh, she's a genius.
- Yes.

96
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:31,600
So you both got attached to her?

97
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,440
That she would create something
and you would benefit too.

98
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:35,520
[laughter]

99
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,400
What does FPV mean?

100
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,000
First Person View.

101
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,360
So you can sit here,

102
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,720
and with your transmitter or remote,

103
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,960
see the feed in your goggles.

104
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,480
While seeing that feed,

105
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,640
we can travel around
4-5 kilometres from here.

106
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,640
- All right.
- Got it.

107
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,360
- Where are the goggles?
Can I see them? - Yes.

108
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,640
- Can I come there?
- Definitely.

109
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,800
[intriguing music]

110
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,000
[adventrous music]

111
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:06,960
Don't come close to me.

112
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:08,680
It's coming towards you, Anupam.

113
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,280
- Hi Aman.
- How are you?

114
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,160
I can see these guys very clearly.

115
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:17,640
Good job, guys.

116
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,200
This is crazy.
This is very difficult.

117
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:23,920
This is the model for Rs. 2,800.

118
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,640
Even kids can fly it.

119
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:26,600
[funny music]

120
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,120
Seeing their enthusiasm, it's
obvious that kids can fly it.

121
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,000
[funny music]

122
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,800
I want to fly it close to Aman.

123
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,120
It's buzzing like a fly and
you want to fly it close to me.

124
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,440
Arth, send him back or he will
keep doing this.

125
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,000
[funny music]

126
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,480
- This drone we just flew
costs Rs. 2,800. - Yes.

127
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,200
How much does the FPV model cost?

128
00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:48,800
That's for Rs. 25,000.

129
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,720
Basically, the price range
of our drones is Rs. 2,800,

130
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,800
Rs. 8,000, Rs. 10,000.

131
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:56,240
Rs. 15,000.

132
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,360
The price of the FPV drones
are high because

133
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,560
you get the goggles with it.

134
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,120
You also get the transmitter

135
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,760
and a battery along with the drone.

136
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,240
[dramatic music]

137
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,720
Currently, who is supplying
drones in India?

138
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,000
We are the first
consumer-based company.

139
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,880
The first thing is that you are not

140
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,320
the first drone manufacturer.

141
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,120
[dramatic music]

142
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,040
You might be the first to
manufacture for Rs. 2,800.

143
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,840
There must be many drone
manufacturers in India.

144
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,040
We can see many drones on Amazon.

145
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:27,680
I bought drones from there.

146
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,800
[dramatic music]

147
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,320
The consumer drones you see

148
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:33,960
are the DJI drones.

149
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:35,320
Parrot drones.

150
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,400
- Parrot is a brand from the USA.
- Parrot is a French brand.

151
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,160
DJI is a Chinese brand.

152
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,640
- And both are banned now?
- Yes, sir.

153
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,200
[dramatic music]

154
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,600
I saw the drone closely,
it has a battery.

155
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,480
Wiring and components.

156
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:51,720
The entire design

157
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,480
and manufacturing.
All this is done in India?

158
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:55,760
We have vendors from three places,

159
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,320
China, Taiwan and Hong Kong.

160
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,160
We source the parts from there and

161
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:02,720
those are integrated here.

162
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,200
The assembly is prepared.

163
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,360
You said foreign drones
are not allowed

164
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:08,320
so you are manufacturing here.

165
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,320
[thrilling music]

166
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,840
Parts must be allowed,
drones are not allowed.

167
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:14,560
You cannot set up

168
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,000
a drone manufacturing unit in India

169
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,800
because that requires a large CapEx.

170
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,440
There's no scale for
drone manufacturing

171
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:22,840
to start in India now.

172
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,840
Exactly, this is an
emerging industry.

173
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,440
- Correct.
- All right.

174
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,200
Talking about scale,

175
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,800
you brought a valuation
of 18.75 crores.

176
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,480
So what is your revenue?

177
00:08:34,560 --> 00:08:36,560
Both for last year and last month.

178
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,120
Our last month's revenue
is Rs. 13 lakhs.

179
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:41,600
- Amazing.
- Very good.

180
00:08:41,680 --> 00:08:44,960
- Well done.
- My expectation was lower but

181
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,520
- I am very impressed.
- Last year?

182
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,480
It was Rs. 85 lakhs.

183
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:50,880
But this year from April to now,

184
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,680
we've already crossed Rs. 44 lakhs.

185
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,840
And we are looking to close at
Rs. 4 crores because

186
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,000
VIT, Chennai

187
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,400
is setting up a drone lab
for students.

188
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,160
So we're giving them all our
drones and equipment.

189
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,360
Secondly, VIT, Vellore

190
00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:09,640
is buying two agricultural
drones from us.

191
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,680
Each drone will cost Rs. 8 lakhs.

192
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,680
Oshi, I'd like to ask you
one question.

193
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,840
How is the equity split
between you three?

194
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,840
And how are the roles

195
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,240
and responsibilities
assigned to each of you?

196
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,920
And mainly, split the 13 lakhs
between B2B and B2C

197
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,240
so that I get some clarity
for your vision.

198
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,280
Our equity split is equal now.

199
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,040
Arth is the CEO.

200
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,360
I'm the COO.

201
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:36,800
And Devyant is the CTO.

202
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,160
The 13 lakhs

203
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,160
is distributed in this way.

204
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,880
40% came from
Plug and Fly FVP drones.

205
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:44,800
And the remaining 60%

206
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:46,920
- came from the spare parts.
- Okay.

207
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,880
Your third question was for
B2B and B2C.

208
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,680
Zero sales in B2B.

209
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,320
The complete Rs. 13 lakh
sales are B2C.

210
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,200
Okay.

211
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,360
You sell it for Rs. 2500.

212
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,000
Can you explain this to me in detail?

213
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,840
The cost is Rs. 2500, how much
is the GST and the sale?

214
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,800
How much does it cost you,
what is your profit?

215
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,760
The B drone of Rs. 2,700

216
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,560
costs us around Rs. 1450

217
00:10:10,680 --> 00:10:12,200
plus 18% GST.

218
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,640
1450 plus 18% GST

219
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,480
is our cost.

220
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,520
And we sell it

221
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,680
for Rs. 2,700 including GST.

222
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,000
Which makes our profit margin
approximately

223
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,120
30-35%.

224
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,440
You make a profit of Rs. 1,000.

225
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,040
Yes, Rs. 1,000 is our profit.

226
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:30,560
It's the gross profit.

227
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:31,880
Moving forward,

228
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,600
will you only manufacture the
hardware for these drones

229
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,320
or also the software?

230
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,600
And will you also provide
services for it?

231
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,800
We will build the
manufacturing set-up.

232
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,080
We are not going into
the services sector.

233
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,560
Till now, we were working
on the hardware.

234
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,320
As the company keeps growing,
we want to

235
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,760
create an ecosystem of
hardware and software.

236
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:58,000
Do you have any idea about
a remote car company brand?

237
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,880
Any company that's become
big in the world?

238
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,280
- No. - No, because they all
got commoditised.

239
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,000
Consumer hardware
applications for drones

240
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,280
will be completely commoditised.

241
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,000
You claim to be alone
because of regulations.

242
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,320
It is only a matter of time
before there are hundreds.

243
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,120
The services space is being managed
by a lot of big companies.

244
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,480
So I think it will be very
competitive.

245
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,240
[dramatic music]

246
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,120
For these reasons, I'm out.
I wish you the best.

247
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,360
Thank you, sir.

248
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,720
What have we created ourselves?
Have we just assembled parts?

249
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,280
Or have we written a program?

250
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:40,640
Or have we made an
intellectual property

251
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:41,720
because of which we are different?

252
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,840
Basically the assembly of the drone,

253
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,400
and then the software needed,

254
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,960
require many lines of coding.

255
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,600
I want to know about it.
What coding did you require for it?

256
00:11:52,680 --> 00:11:55,520
A drone has a flight controller

257
00:11:55,680 --> 00:11:57,760
which acts as the drone's brain.

258
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,240
So we do programming
for the flight controller.

259
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,160
We are designing new models

260
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:08,120
and we'll get them patented
within a year.

261
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:09,560
Did you get any patents till now?

262
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,120
No, sir!

263
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,440
Our company is just two years old.

264
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,640
- But once we get funding,
we'll focus on design... - Hold on!

265
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:18,960
What do you mean by funding?

266
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:22,200
Did you already receive funding?

267
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,560
- Yes!
- Yes! We raised Rs. 25 lakhs

268
00:12:26,680 --> 00:12:29,320
at a valuation of Rs. 12.5 crores.
Also,

269
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,440
we have received
Rs. 10 lakhs as a grant

270
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,480
from the government of India,
Nidhi-prayas, VIT TBI.

271
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,760
Where do you sell?
Where did you sell your products?

272
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,640
We sell our products
through our website.

273
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,200
How do you attract customers
to your website?

274
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,840
In these two years, we focused

275
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,680
on organic marketing
which is word-of-mouth marketing.

276
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,440
- We didn't spend a single penny
on marketing. - Wow!

277
00:12:51,560 --> 00:12:54,840
That's how we are growing. And now,
we're a young profitable startup.

278
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,520
As far as I understand,
it's an early stage.

279
00:12:58,680 --> 00:13:00,520
But you three are superb.

280
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:02,800
We can stake our money on you.

281
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,720
So we'll give you Rs. 50 lakhs.

282
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,400
I'll give you Rs. 25 lakhs
and Aman will give you Rs. 25 lakhs.

283
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,640
Plus, Rs. 25 lakhs in debt. Aman
and I will give Rs. 12.5 lakhs each.

284
00:13:12,680 --> 00:13:16,440
And we are giving you
Rs. 50 lakhs for 20% equity.

285
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:17,600
Eh?

286
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:19,800
That's it! That's it?

287
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,880
The reason is, we are taking a risk.

288
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,840
What is your interest rate
on the loan?

289
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,960
No interest on the loan. I don't
want any interest on Rs. 25 lakhs.

290
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,600
- I have one last question.
- One more question?

291
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:41,680
Are you making an offer?

292
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,000
Is it allowed to ask a question
before making an offer?

293
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,320
- Of course!
- You may ask a question.

294
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,680
You said that you didn't spend money
on marketing

295
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,840
- for your sales.
- No!

296
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,880
- You sold your product
through your website. - Yes!

297
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,560
I want to know your secret. How are
you attracting sales organically?

298
00:13:57,680 --> 00:14:00,320
There's a blog section
on our website.

299
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,720
Content writers work for us
from the very first day.

300
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,960
They write the content and post it.

301
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,880
You should have said it before.
It's a strong point.

302
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,960
Actually, they want to check
what you have already done.

303
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,560
But we want to check your scope.
That's the only difference.

304
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,120
Let me talk to Namita first.
Then we'll make an offer.

305
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,200
Amit, I hope you don't have
any more questions.

306
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:22,560
Otherwise, you'd complain later.

307
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,080
- Anupam, I could ask
more questions. - Good!

308
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,160
[suspenseful music]

309
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:34,920
We have an offer.

310
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,280
Rs. 75 lakhs! We won't offer
you a loan as it's complicated.

311
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,200
As students, how will you return it?
Student loans are more than enough.

312
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,880
So we won't give you a loan. We
offer Rs. 75 lakhs against equity.

313
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,560
Namita and I will
divide the amount.

314
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,840
- The equity is 15% so the valuation
is Rs. 5 crores. - Double valuation!

315
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,400
They gave you
a valuation of Rs. 2.5 crores.

316
00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,280
I'm confident that you'll succeed.

317
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:02,640
That's our offer.

318
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,200
We'd like to make a counteroffer.

319
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:11,120
Go on!

320
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,560
Rs. 75 lakhs for 5% equity.

321
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,120
We want all four Sharks
to come together

322
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:22,480
and help us soar.

323
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:26,320
We'll make sure, you won't regret
investing money in our company.

324
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,800
I won't agree to 5% equity.

325
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,520
We can match their offer
of Rs. 75 lakhs for 15% equity.

326
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,680
We'll make a final offer
as you want to bring about a change.

327
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,280
- Our final offer is Rs. 75 lakhs
for 12% equity. - 12%!

328
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,240
And the valuation
will be Rs. 6.25 crores.

329
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,480
We gave you a better valuation.

330
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,040
All of you together,
can we make it 12%?

331
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,360
[dramatic music]

332
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,040
Let's do it! All four of us for 12%.

333
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:07,480
No! Peyush opted out.

334
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,880
- Please! Please, Peyush! Please!
- Please!

335
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,320
- Tell them. The kids want
you to join. - Let's all do it.

336
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,640
All four Sharks agree to join.
But...

337
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,120
We'll offer Rs. 75 lakhs
for 15% equity.

338
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:26,360
Please answer, yes or no.

339
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,240
Deal done, Sharks!

340
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,040
- Well done!
- Nice! Good job!

341
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:38,120
Good job, guys!

342
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:42,520
So I'll give my cheque
to India's first FPV woman pilot.

343
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:44,760
- Thank you, ma'am!
- Well done!

344
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,960
- Wonderful!
- Thank you!

345
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,280
- Many congratulations!
- Thank you, sir!

346
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,080
- Here you are.
- All the best!

347
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,000
Good luck!

348
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,320
Sharks, there are
several taxes nowadays.

349
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:22,920
Property tax, wealth tax, income tax
and now there's a fat tax too.

350
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,560
Suppose, you go shopping

351
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,560
and you like a garment
which costs Rs. 1,000.

352
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,160
And if you want that garment

353
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,280
in sizes above XL and XXL,

354
00:18:35,360 --> 00:18:39,200
chances are that you will have to
pay extra for that piece of garment.

355
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,480
- This is known as the fat tax!
- Ouch!

356
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,360
And, Sharks,
there was a need for a brand

357
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,000
that honours
a person's individuality.

358
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,840
And hence, Angrakhaa was born.

359
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,280
Angrakhaa is an online
size-inclusive clothing brand

360
00:18:55,520 --> 00:19:00,200
which makes extremely fashionable,
cool and trendy clothes

361
00:19:00,360 --> 00:19:01,600
for all sizes.

362
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,120
It includes various categories
like dresses, skirts,

363
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,800
co-ord sets and also Indian wear.

364
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:10,080
I see!

365
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,280
Our specialisation is customisation.

366
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,680
And the most important thing is
that all sizes are priced the same.

367
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,440
We don't discriminate.

368
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,640
We've fulfilled the orders
of over 10,000 customers till now.

369
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,400
And we have more than 55,000
followers on social media.

370
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:31,360
Wow!

371
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,680
And we are all set to enter
the Indian wedding market

372
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,920
- for both men's and women's wear.
- Wow!

373
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,080
We want to make Angrakhaa
a global brand

374
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,040
in the size-inclusive category

375
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,280
so that when people go shopping,
they don't say,

376
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,280
"I wish it was available
in my size!"

377
00:19:47,360 --> 00:19:49,040
[laughing]

378
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,560
Hello, Sharks! I'm Asana Riamei.

379
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,160
And I'm Vishakha Bhaskkar.

380
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,800
Both of us
are co-founders of Angrakhaa.

381
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:02,240
Sharks, our ask is
Rs. 40 lakhs for 5% equity.

382
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,000
[upbeat music]

383
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,520
And now, Sharks,
presenting to you, Angrakhaa!

384
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,560
[vocalising]

385
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,320
[vocalising]

386
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,800
Sharks, this is what
size inclusivity looks like.

387
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,360
- Thank you so much, girls,
for being here today! - Thank you!

388
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,520
- Thank you, guys!
- Amazing presentation!

389
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:54,400
- Thank you!
- Thank you!

390
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,440
- Welcome to Shark Tank season 2!
- Thank you so much!

391
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,440
- So your name is Vishakha.
- That's right.

392
00:20:58,520 --> 00:20:59,800
I didn't catch your name.

393
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:01,120
- Asana!
- Asana!

394
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:02,760
- Yes!
- What does Asana mean?

395
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,600
It's my pet name.

396
00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:07,400
- Actually, I hail from Manipur.
- Wow!

397
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,480
My original name is too long.

398
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,640
People often mispronounce,

399
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,640
so my parents gave me a short name

400
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,080
so that it's easier
for other people to pronounce it.

401
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:17,000
[laughing]

402
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,160
- 'Aasan' means Asana.
- Yes!

403
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:20,800
It's suffixed with 'na'.

404
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:22,160
So sweet!

405
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,440
But please tell us your original
name. We'd like to hear it.

406
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,800
Sangailungliu Riamei.

407
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,000
Oh, wow!

408
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:33,560
First, I'd like to know the story of
your journey and your background.

409
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,360
I studied at Shri Ram College
of Commerce.

410
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,480
I completed my honours degree
in economics.

411
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,720
But I didn't have
an interest in that field.

412
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,400
So in my second year of college,

413
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,040
I started writing fashion blogs.

414
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,640
Mostly on mid-size
and plus-size fashion.

415
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:50,200
Throughout my journey,
I connected with numerous girls

416
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,440
who made me realise
that they faced a similar problem.

417
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,880
The manufacturers forget
about style and fashion

418
00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,040
when they make plus-size clothes.
They just make outfits.

419
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,840
After my college,

420
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,280
when I joined my first design
and fashion job, I met Asana.

421
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,800
After approximately two years,

422
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,560
I decided to start my business.

423
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,520
So I started my business and
I contacted Asana after a year.

424
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,280
I asked her
if she'd like to join me.

425
00:22:17,360 --> 00:22:18,800
And she was all game for it.

426
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,000
Awesome!

427
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:22,920
Asana, please tell us
something about yourself.

428
00:22:23,120 --> 00:22:25,560
Actually, I came to Delhi
to study in a college.

429
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,400
Simultaneously, I was working
and supporting myself.

430
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:29,440
Wow!

431
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,080
When I joined the fashion industry,

432
00:22:32,120 --> 00:22:34,840
I felt it suited me

433
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,760
because I like to design clothes.

434
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,800
Ms. Asana, which place do you
exactly belong to in Manipur?

435
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,720
I belong to Tamenglong.
It's one of the most underdeveloped

436
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:46,480
districts in India.

437
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,880
- Oh!
- What's the total population?

438
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,720
It's around 30,000 to 40,000.

439
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:51,960
It's a small town.

440
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,800
Very few people must be
coming to Delhi to study in college.

441
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,040
- Yes!
- So your journey to Delhi

442
00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,840
is in itself a huge step.

443
00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:01,880
My dad supported me all through.

444
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,280
- Oh, wow!
- Alright!

445
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,800
He wanted me
to go to Delhi and explore.

446
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,160
He was supportive.
And that helped me reach here.

447
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:16,320
Asana and Vishakha,
body-shaming is prevalent in India.

448
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,200
- People call a fat person, "fatso"!
- Yes!

449
00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:20,080
I have also been
at the receiving end.

450
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:24,400
Why didn't you
decide to make clothes

451
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,400
- only for the plus size
instead of all the sizes? - Yes!

452
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,760
I think the biggest problem

453
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,880
in the plus-size industry is,

454
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,920
they treat plus-sized people
like outcasts.

455
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,880
We make them feel inclusive.

456
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,600
We don't have a separate
set of collections for them

457
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,680
or a separate size chart.

458
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:43,560
We make them
an integral part of clothing.

459
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,760
But your bulk business

460
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,400
will be generated
by the plus-sized clothes. Correct?

461
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,840
Not really! Our website shows

462
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,560
a 50:50 ratio

463
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,480
between the normal sizes
and the plus sizes.

464
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,640
We do not promote ourselves
as a plus-size brand.

465
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,640
- Okay. - We want to say that we're
solving the problem of plus sized

466
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,360
but we are a size-inclusive brand.
Because let's just face it,

467
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:12,000
maybe plus-sized people
are embarrassed to buy clothes

468
00:24:12,120 --> 00:24:13,480
from a plus-size brand.

469
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:14,560
Good point!

470
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,720
- It's a genuine problem.
- That's true.

471
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,080
- Can you show us your website?
- Sure!

472
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,120
Oh, nice!

473
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:26,920
Very nice!

474
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,880
It's New Age designing.
Who did the design?

475
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:30,960
I did it.

476
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,720
- Fabulous! Amazing look.
- Thank you!

477
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:35,920
[inspirational music]

478
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:38,880
What's the meaning of your logo?

479
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,360
In Sanskrit, 'angrakhaa' means
protector of your body.

480
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,960
- Yes.
- And it's the style of kurta

481
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,120
worn by Lord Krishna
in mythological serials.

482
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,160
I think it's an ethnic-wear brand.

483
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,680
We were very clear
from the beginning

484
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,040
that Angrakhaa could
become global in future,

485
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,360
so people must come to know
that it's an Indian brand.

486
00:24:57,120 --> 00:24:58,240
What are your sales figures?

487
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,320
When we started before Covid,

488
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,120
we made sales worth Rs. 14 lakhs.

489
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,680
During Covid,
we made sales worth Rs. 7 lakhs.

490
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,360
And in the last financial year,
our sales were Rs. 1.16 crores.

491
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,120
- Wow!
- Wonderful!

492
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:13,680
[chuckling]

493
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,640
- Well done!
- Thank you!

494
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,880
How did you reach Rs. 1.16 crores
from Rs. 7 lakhs magically?

495
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,960
When we started this business,

496
00:25:21,120 --> 00:25:23,240
Asana brought
her technical knowledge

497
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:25,760
and I utilised my knowledge
of social media,

498
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,520
and my managerial knowledge.

499
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,840
- But we forgot about
performance marketing. - Hmm!

500
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,800
That was a big factor.

501
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,600
We studied it
during two years of Covid

502
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,440
through various small courses.

503
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,080
And then we applied our knowledge.

504
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,280
And these sales are only through
Facebook ads.

505
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,560
These are only through your site.
Don't you sell in the marketplace?

506
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,960
- Yes! We sell only through our
website. - Only through the website.

507
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,080
Why didn't you explore
the marketplaces?

508
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,840
Marketplaces are always in a rush.
They want it the very next day.

509
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,960
- If the customer cancels the order,
we bear the brunt. - That's true.

510
00:26:00,120 --> 00:26:03,760
- So we don't have an inventory
to dispatch it the next day. - Yes.

511
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,520
Once an order is placed, in how many
days do you deliver the product?

512
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,600
Usually, we dispatch in 7-8 days.

513
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,240
But that's not a problem point
for our customers till now.

514
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,600
But the problem is,
when you go for customisation,

515
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,880
you can't manufacture on the fly.

516
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,280
We get only 27%
of customisation requests.

517
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:24,680
Interesting!

518
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,560
And the rest are picked
from the available sizes.

519
00:26:29,120 --> 00:26:32,000
What is your sales run rate
in the last 2-3 months?

520
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,280
In the month of May,
we made sales worth Rs. 13 lakhs.

521
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,320
In June, we made sales
worth Rs. 15 lakhs.

522
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,360
And in July,
we made sales worth Rs. 24 lakhs.

523
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,400
Wow! Did you increase
the marketing expenditure in July?

524
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:48,400
We increased the marketing expenses
and explored new model collections.

525
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,600
We were dealing in solids till now.
So we expanded into prints.

526
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,400
We sold it as an exclusive
for a limited time period.

527
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,840
Customers could buy it immediately
or else, it would be out of stock.

528
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,040
It was a small batch production
and we sold out.

529
00:27:00,120 --> 00:27:01,600
- Nice!
- Good strategy.

530
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,040
How much did you spend on marketing
to get a sale of Rs. 24 lakhs?

531
00:27:04,120 --> 00:27:05,280
We spent Rs. 2.9 lakhs.

532
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,840
- That's it?
- That's it!

533
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,720
Please explain
the unit economics to us.

534
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,240
- Your cost of production
and your selling price. - Yes!

535
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,560
Let's take one dress for example.

536
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,400
Its price is Rs. 2,900.

537
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,040
Its production cost is Rs. 900.

538
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,920
- It includes raw material, zip,
stitching, and button. - Everything?

539
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,320
Yes! And the GST is extra.

540
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:29,720
What's the GST percentage?

541
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:30,960
- 12%!
- 12%!

542
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,520
- Let's subtract Rs. 335. Right?
- Rs. 1,700 remains.

543
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,720
How much are the logistics?
Around Rs. 150?

544
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:37,720
- Rs. 100!
- Rs. 100!

545
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,520
- What's the marketing cost
for this? - Around Rs. 300.

546
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,080
After selling your products... For
example, you sold it for Rs. 2,900.

547
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,920
So in the end, you saved Rs. 1,500.
Correct?

548
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,520
- Rs. 1,200 is saved!
- You are left with Rs. 1,200.

549
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:51,520
Yes!

550
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,160
What is your net profit?

551
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,520
Last year, our net profit
was too less.

552
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:57,000
It was around 20%.

553
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,440
But in FY 22-23, our net profit

554
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,320
is already 35%.

555
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,600
You are earning around Rs. 1 crore
through your business yearly

556
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,360
- which is commendable! Amazing!
- Amazing!

557
00:28:10,360 --> 00:28:11,600
I hope you know this.

558
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:13,120
We try to underplay it.
But it's okay!

559
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,080
[laughing]

560
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:16,800
She's too humble.

561
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:22,080
What is your repeat order rate?
How many customers reorder?

562
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,240
27% of customers
are our repeat customers.

563
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,800
- Amazing!
- I have made my decision.

564
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,600
Ms. Asana, I must say
that you inspired me.

565
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:31,800
Thank you, Shark!

566
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:36,000
You're doing so well that you must
rethink asking for investment.

567
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:37,880
[suspenseful music]

568
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,680
If you still want it, multiple
categories will be a problem

569
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,280
because the scale expectation
will be very high in that case.

570
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,200
But there's no guarantee
that you would earn the same amount.

571
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:53,720
So I want to be out.

572
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,880
But I wish you the best of luck
and you're doing very well.

573
00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:58,960
- Thank you, Shark!
- Thank you!

574
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,680
When an investor invests
in your business,

575
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,840
they get the exit

576
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:09,640
from two to three avenues.

577
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,520
One is by raising more funds.

578
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,240
That will help us exit.

579
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,640
Or a bigger company
could acquire you.

580
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,640
The third option
is to go for an IPO.

581
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,720
You will use our stake
in the IPO market to earn returns.

582
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,880
When we say that your business
isn't investible,

583
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:32,280
it means that your business
wouldn't grow enough

584
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,560
for us to get a visibility
of these three to four options.

585
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,600
For this reason, I'm out.

586
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,160
- Thank you!
- Thank you!

587
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,520
Asana and Vishakha, I'm also out.

588
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,960
I think your brand strategy
is confusing.

589
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,800
If you had claimed to sell
only plus size products,

590
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,720
I would have looked at it
from one point of view.

591
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,360
But you said that you sell plus size
products and other items too.

592
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:02,840
But all the best, guys!

593
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,200
- Thank you!
- Thank you, Shark!

594
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,080
It's wonderful that you are
so successful.

595
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,520
It's not easy to get a 30% margin.

596
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,240
But it's really tough
to move further.

597
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:18,800
[tense music]

598
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:24,560
Unless you present
your USP to your customer

599
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,800
and a clean image of your product...

600
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,040
I can't see the USP, so I'm out.

601
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:35,680
I want to make an offer.

602
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:36,840
Wow!

603
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:38,600
Wow!

604
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,840
In your case,
it's a digital marketing game.

605
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,000
You have expertise in fashion.
My expertise is in digital marketing.

606
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,040
I think I can help you

607
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,600
in boosting the sales from current
numbers to much higher numbers.

608
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,480
You asked Rs. 40 lakhs
for 5% equity.

609
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,240
It's no use working for you
for such a small equity.

610
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,240
So my offer is Rs. 40 lakhs
for 20% equity.

611
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:00,080
Okay.

612
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:01,640
I estimated your valuation
to be Rs. 2 crores.

613
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,360
We'd like to give a counteroffer.

614
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,240
Can we get the same amount
for 15% equity?

615
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,920
I want 20% equity because there's
a lot to be done. Believe me!

616
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,280
And I'll deliver
value to you for sure.

617
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,920
Your business
isn't investible as is.

618
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,840
- His work is to make
your business investible. - Correct!

619
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,240
Right now, it's a good
personal business.

620
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,400
- So that's your last offer?
- That's my last offer.

621
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,240
Let's go!

622
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:39,680
- Alright.
- It's a deal!

623
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,160
- Go for it. You should!
- It's a deal.

624
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:42,640
So it's a done deal!

625
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:43,880
Awesome!

626
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:45,600
- Amazing!
- Great, guys!

627
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,840
Now Amit will help you.
May God protect you!

628
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,040
[laughing]

629
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:51,760
In a good way!

630
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,800
- You are an inspiration.
Congratulations! - Thank you, sir!

631
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,360
- Thank you!
- Thank you!

632
00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:59,600
Keep rocking! And looking forward
to working with you.

633
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:00,520
- Thank you so much!
- Thanks!

634
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,360
- Thank you so much, Sharks!
- Thank you!

635
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:03,520
Alright, guys!

636
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:04,920
- Yay!
- Yay!

00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,120
'Our group must be
a part of history books.'

[vocalising]

641
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,080
My name is Amit Jain.

642
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,520
I'm the co-founder
and CEO of CarDekho.

643
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,680
And I started this company
along with my brother Anurag.

644
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:37,520
I'm from Jaipur.

645
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:42,400
My dad worked
in the Reserve Bank of India

646
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:43,680
and my grandfather
was a government employee.

647
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,080
So we weren't affluent.
We had limited amenities.

648
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,200
I saw my dad and my grandfather

649
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,560
take care of the family
with limited means.

650
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:55,960
I learnt to stand by others
through thick and thin.

651
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,160
I learnt to stay happy
by making compromises.

652
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,440
Anurag's support
made my journey enjoyable.

653
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,000
Initially, when the business started
we faced numerous difficulties.

654
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:12,080
Because in the beginning,
our office was in the garage.

655
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,560
There were cubicles
on both sides.

656
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,280
Ten people could sit here. And there
was a training room where I taught.

657
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,840
The IT industry hadn't evolved
in Jaipur back then.

658
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:25,000
So we invited software
developers from local companies.

659
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,760
After seeing our setup,
they didn't give the interview.

660
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:29,720
So we didn't know what to do.

661
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,520
We decided

662
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,280
to visit the engineering
colleges in and around Jaipur.

663
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,200
So we attracted the freshers.

664
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,200
And our team had only freshers.

665
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,720
Anurag and I trained them. We taught
them coding through the night.

666
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,160
We trained them one-on-one.

667
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,640
The team of freshers
lead our company now.

668
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,680
[triumphant music]

669
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,400
I don't act like a boss.
All of us are like a family.

670
00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:00,040
We work on the
ground connect diligently.

671
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,160
We value the ability of a person.

672
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:08,040
I'm focused on impact.
I strive to make a large impact.

673
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,480
Shark Tank gave me an opportunity

674
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:14,240
to listen to plenty
of new ideas and support

675
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:15,680
the right founders.

676
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,680
I think every founder can teach us.

677
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:19,840
You would teach them
and learn in the process.

678
00:34:20,240 --> 00:34:21,840
'CarDekho Mall'

679
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:23,640
'Amit will be the best Shark.'

680
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,480
'I think he was born for this.'

681
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:29,560
I think Amit can bring out the best
in any entrepreneur.

683
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,120
Keep running!

00:34:38,240 --> 00:34:39,560
I don't like to fail.

685
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:41,480
I'll make a deal if I like it.

686
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,800
I'm here to make big deals.
The big Shark is here.

687
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,720
[vocalising]

688
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,240
[ethereal music]

689
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:08,880
[epic music]

690
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,120
- Greetings, Sharks!
- Greetings!

691
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:28,000
Diabetes isn't a new word for us.

692
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:29,720
If we check our surroundings,

693
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,760
we can meet many diabetic people.

694
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,240
And the remaining will be
diagnosed with diabetes very soon.

695
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,120
Please don't say that.
[chuckling]

696
00:35:35,240 --> 00:35:36,240
What are you saying?

697
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:38,320
The main reason
that leads to diabetes is our diet.

698
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,440
Although we are vegetarians,

699
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:42,960
we don't eat vegetables.

700
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,080
We just eat grains
for the entire day.

701
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:48,040
So basically, we aren't vegetarians
but 'grainitarians'.

702
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:49,560
But grains

703
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:51,320
increase the blood sugar level

704
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:54,000
because they have
a high glycaemic load.

705
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,920
You must be wondering
what glycaemic load means.

706
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,320
Glycaemic load is a parameter
to measure

707
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,560
the increase
in the blood sugar level

708
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,600
after eating a particular food item.

709
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,280
For example, wheat flour.

710
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,040
If we use 100 grams of wheat flour

711
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,160
to make four to five rotis,

712
00:36:13,240 --> 00:36:15,440
its glycaemic load would be 50.

713
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,320
It increases the blood sugar level
rapidly.

714
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,280
When the blood sugar level
of a diabetic patient increases,

715
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,120
they have to take medicines

716
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:24,920
and frequent the doctors.

717
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,520
Some people get insulin injections
to control their blood sugar levels.

718
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:29,400
Sharks, if it continues,

719
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,640
our country will soon be considered

720
00:36:31,720 --> 00:36:33,480
the centre of diabetic people.

721
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:36,400
We must not let that happen.

722
00:36:37,240 --> 00:36:39,800
To help us do that
we are presenting Diabexy.

723
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:41,760
[upbeat music]

724
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,120
I'm Lokendra Tomar,
founder and director of the company.

725
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,520
And my name is Nishu Tomar.
We hail from Gurugram, Haryana.

726
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,560
NutroActive is the name
of our company.

727
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,520
It consists of two types
of products.

728
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:55,960
We have products
related to weight loss.

729
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,120
They are sold under
the NutroActive brand.

730
00:36:58,240 --> 00:37:01,600
And we also have products that are
sold under Diabexy for diabetic patie

731
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:05,040
Diabexy makes such food products

732
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,000
whose glycaemic load

733
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:10,000
is around 90% less
than the normal products.

734
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,440
For instance, Diabexy Atta.

735
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,160
Its glycaemic load is just 7.

736
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,160
We make many food items, like
namkeen, biscuits and sweets

737
00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:20,520
which don't impact
the blood sugar level

738
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,000
and are tasty too.

739
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,520
Sharks, we launched Diabexy
two years ago.

740
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:30,600
Today, more than 3.5 lakh people
use Diabexy products

741
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,360
and are trying to manage
their diabetic condition.

742
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:36,480
Diabexy's mission

743
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,840
is to eradicate diabetes from India
just like we eradicated polio.

744
00:37:40,720 --> 00:37:43,360
Sharks, to fulfil our mission,

745
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,640
we ask for Rs. 1.5 crores

746
00:37:46,720 --> 00:37:49,520
for 1% equity.

747
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,280
Whoa!

748
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:52,240
[coughing]

749
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,160
- Oh!
- Wow!

750
00:37:55,240 --> 00:37:56,560
I feel like a diabetic patient
after hearing you.

751
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,000
[chuckling]

752
00:37:58,080 --> 00:37:59,520
I need some water.

753
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,720
[laughing]

754
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,320
- Lokendra and Nishu Tomar.
- Yes.

755
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,320
Welcome to Shark Tank season 2.

756
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:07,440
- Thank you, sir!
- Thank you, sir!

757
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,600
You are working for a good cause.

758
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:11,320
As you said, diabetes

759
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,680
is a serious issue.
Are you a doctor?

760
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,200
How do you have so much knowledge?

761
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,040
Actually, I aspired to be
a doctor but I couldn't become one.

762
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:20,360
[laughing]

763
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,360
So I became a pharmacist.

764
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:23,720
I'm a pharmacist.

765
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,760
I have knowledge of medicines

766
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,200
and food items too.

767
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,240
So I combined food and pharma

768
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,040
to create a new industry

769
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,040
that gives therapeutic value
to patients through food.

770
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,720
What did you do before this?
Please tell us your background.

771
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:40,360
Actually, my family members

772
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,400
comprising my grandparents
were farmers.

773
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,160
My dad was a government employee
and he was posted in Chhattisgarh.

774
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,240
His job profile was

775
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:51,560
to teach agriculture to the tribes.

776
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,960
I used to stay with him
in the jungle.

777
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,240
Our financial condition wasn't good

778
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,240
and we bought groceries from
the nearby grocer on credit.

779
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,880
So we faced a financial crunch
during those times.

780
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:05,200
But when we visited Delhi,
we saw traffic lights on the roads

781
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:06,880
and people driving cars.

782
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,440
So there was
a prosperity difference.

783
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,520
And I thought it was possible

784
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,080
to live a lavish life
and own a car too.

785
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:14,440
Yes!
[chuckling]

786
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,760
I wanted to achieve
something in life.

787
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:21,560
So, I noticed that people who
do business, usually have money.

788
00:39:21,720 --> 00:39:23,320
And, they are prospering too.

789
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:24,880
So, I couldn't understand too much

790
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,080
but, I did understand,
that if we do business

791
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,400
then we can attain prosperity.

792
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:31,960
But, I was confused about
what business to do.

793
00:39:32,240 --> 00:39:35,120
So, while working in
a pharmaceutical company

794
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:36,200
I used to sell medicines.

795
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,120
And, I used to
sell medicines for diabetes.

796
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,800
- Which company?
- I worked for Sun Pharma.

797
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:44,760
So, when I performed well in sales,
they gave me a book.

798
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,000
It was, ‘How to win friends
and influence people’.

799
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,240
- Oh!
- Ah! It’s a best seller.

800
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,360
So, when I read that book

801
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:55,040
I realised that these lessons
weren’t taught in school.

802
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,080
We may want to
achieve something in life

803
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:58,880
but we only learn theory in school.

804
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:00,560
Nobody teaches personal development.

805
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:01,560
Well said.

806
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,560
So I felt that if I want
to be successful in life,

807
00:40:04,720 --> 00:40:06,440
books can be of great help to me.

808
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:09,320
So, I began to read several books.

809
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,720
I mean, I used to go through
three books in a week.

810
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,640
I have read over a thousand books.

811
00:40:13,720 --> 00:40:16,120
- Oh wow!
- Very good!

812
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:17,720
Once I started reading,

813
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:22,120
I realised that we can cure several
diseases with our food intake.

814
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:23,760
We don’t need drugs.

815
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:25,880
Then, the keto diet
became very popular.

816
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,520
So, madam managed
all the responsibility.

817
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,200
And, she learned digital marketing.

818
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:32,960
- Wow!
- She learned to build a website.

819
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,360
She learned photoshop,
and everything else.

820
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:36,520
Amazing!

821
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:38,360
Then, we launched keto diet products

822
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,680
and they started selling
like hot cakes on Amazon!

823
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:41,800
[laughter]

824
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:42,960
How much did you sell?

825
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,000
We started in 2016.

826
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:48,480
Our annual sales in 2016-2017
were 65 lakh rupees.

827
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:49,680
Very nice.

828
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,920
After that, we reached
1.5 crore rupees.

829
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:56,080
- The following year,
we reached 3.25 crore rupees. - Wow!

830
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,120
The following year,
we touched 5.25 crore rupees.

831
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,280
Then, it was 8.25 crore rupees.

832
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,480
And, last year, we made
around 13 crore rupees.

833
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:05,000
Woah!

834
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,200
And, in 2021-2022?

835
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,000
It is 12.8 crores, to be precise.

836
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:10,440
How much was your profit?

837
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:12,800
We take a salary
of one crore rupees.

838
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:14,440
- For both of you?
- Yes.

839
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,360
So, after your salary,
what was the profit?

840
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,400
We made a profit of
1.5 crore rupees last year.

841
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:20,480
After 1 crore in salary?

842
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:21,760
After 1 crore in salary.

843
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,080
- That becomes 2.5 crore rupees?
- Yes.

844
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,600
- Do you manufacture
these products yourself? - Yes.

845
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:28,880
And, what is your product margin?

846
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:30,920
Product margin, after deducting
the manufacturing cost.

847
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,720
One-third of the MRP
at which a product sells

848
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,640
is its manufacturing cost.

849
00:41:36,720 --> 00:41:38,960
- Okay.
- One-third is the distribution cost

850
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:40,400
- including the Amazon fees.
- Okay.

851
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,120
And, the remaining one-third
includes taxes and profit.

852
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,120
How many of your customers
are repeat customers?

853
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,320
We have 70% repeat customers
on our own website.

854
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:50,840
Well done!

855
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,080
So, how much are the sales
of weight loss products

856
00:41:53,240 --> 00:41:55,160
and of diabetes products,
from the 13 crores?

857
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,480
Last year, it was fifty-fifty.

858
00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,360
The year before that, we did
sales worth 8.5 crores.

859
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,960
From that, 20% was Diabexy.

860
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,680
And, this year, 70% is Diabexy.

861
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:07,680
If we look at our current sales,

862
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,360
we are making
around 1.1 crores per month.

863
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:13,040
So, your other business is on
a decline and this one is rising.

864
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,800
Yes, because
the keto diet is slowly fading.

865
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,120
You are earning 13 crores
from how many SKUs?

866
00:42:20,240 --> 00:42:22,920
We have a total of
16 Diabexy products right now.

867
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,640
And, the number of SKUs is higher
because of varying pack sizes.

868
00:42:26,720 --> 00:42:27,960
What sells the most?

869
00:42:28,240 --> 00:42:31,680
The flour is the highest selling.
40% of sales are from Diabexy flour.

870
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,520
Let’s taste a roti made with it.
I’ll start eating this daily.

871
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,640
[music playing]

872
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,960
- This is roti. And, these are
our almond cookies. - Alright.

873
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,120
- Okay. - This is cashew barfi,
coconut barfi

874
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:46,560
and, this is a breakfast bagel.

875
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,440
These won’t cause a rise
in weight or blood sugar.

876
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:52,920
[suspenseful music playing]

877
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:00,080
Not bad.

878
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,880
It tastes just like a normal roti.

879
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:04,760
Nice.

880
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:06,480
The roti is great.

881
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:07,720
Very nice.

882
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:09,000
So, this is roti.

883
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,320
- What is this?
- This is a barfi.

884
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,880
Even though it is sweet,
it won’t raise blood sugar.

885
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:17,240
The product that we use for
sweetness is called oligofructose.

886
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,920
It works as a fibre.
So, it tastes sweet upon eating

887
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,400
and is easily excreted
out of the body.

888
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:23,520
[laughter]

889
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,680
The body does not absorb it, so
it won’t influence blood sugar.

890
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:28,440
It tastes nice and normal.

891
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:30,360
It does not taste odd or different.

892
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,680
I have written a book too.
’New theory of diabetes’.

893
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:36,360
In this, I have explained that the
thought process is the issue.

894
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,560
We feel that once we
are afflicted by diabetes,

895
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:40,680
it is irreversible.
But, that’s not true.

896
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:42,000
Diabetes can be reversed?

897
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:43,160
Of course, it can!

898
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,920
Like a fever,
diabetes can be cured too.

899
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:48,960
What are your reviews or ratings

900
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,240
on Amazon,
or other selling platforms?

901
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:52,720
What are your ratings?

902
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,720
Ratings are between 3.5 to 4.
It goes higher too.

903
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:57,360
Isn’t 3.5 a little low?

904
00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,840
But, the Diabexy flour
has a rating of 4.

905
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,320
Which product is at 3.5?

906
00:44:02,720 --> 00:44:04,880
- Maybe some cookies.
- Maybe?

907
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:08,880
Do you know?

908
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:12,440
Actually, I don’t remember
each product’s ratings. Sorry.

909
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,920
Even today, I read the feedback
from all my customers.

910
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,640
If ratings are 3.5 to 4, people must
also be giving lower ratings.

911
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,520
What can their reason be?
Have you spoken to those customers?

912
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,480
Yes, their reasons are that
they didn’t like the flour.

913
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,600
They didn’t like the taste.
That’s the most common one.

914
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,120
But, all of you liked it,
didn’t you?

915
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:33,400
[laughter]

916
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,480
We liked it.
[laughter]

917
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,560
- Is there anyone else in your team?
- No.

918
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:40,960
The two of you are
running the business?

919
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:42,400
- Yes.
- You have no other employees?

920
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:44,360
- We do have other employees.
- How many employees?

921
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:45,240
40 employees.

922
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:48,000
So, what’s your vision for
this company? After five years,

923
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,560
how big do you envision this company
and what more will it be doing?

924
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,080
After five years, we are expecting

925
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:56,560
that we will make a turnover
of more than 500 crore rupees.

926
00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:00,800
And, we’re introducing new products.
Like, flour is a great product.

927
00:45:01,240 --> 00:45:03,760
We have also produced
rice for diabetes.

928
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,080
How much costlier is
this flour than normal flour?

929
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,520
This costs around
500 rupees per kilogram.

930
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,400
Very few people in India will pay
so much money for your flour.

931
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,560
Okay? And then,
you won’t be the only company.

932
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,120
Other companies will arise too.

933
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,120
- It will get copied too.
- Yes, exactly!

934
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,480
There’s no patented formulation.

935
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:30,080
We face competition whether
the business grows or not.

936
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:33,560
So we think that we
possess the competence

937
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,400
as we started this business.

938
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,120
We know that we can innovate
in tough situations.

939
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,120
Because we know the nitty-gritty of
the business as we are the founders.

940
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:44,360
Secondly, we are open
to collaboration with other people.

941
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,920
Instead of competing,
we'd like to collaborate.

942
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:50,120
We'll adapt
according to the situation.

943
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:53,520
Let me tell you my decision.

944
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,560
Your efforts are laudable
because diabetes

945
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:00,600
makes people suffer immensely.
Every day,

946
00:46:00,720 --> 00:46:01,920
they pay a heavy price.

947
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,280
If your products
are beneficial for people,

948
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,560
you are doing great work
as you are saving lives.

949
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:09,280
But I feel you are choosing
the wrong path

950
00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:14,400
if you are looking for investment.
You are the centre of your business.

951
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:16,840
Your business runs
on your knowledge.

952
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,880
Your business runs
because of Ms. Nishu's execution.

953
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:24,160
And I think you may bank on it
and grow your business.

954
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:28,760
For this reason, I'm out. I feel you
should keep the company to yourself.

955
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,080
You shouldn't involve anyone
from outside. Good luck to you!

956
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:33,680
We have an offer. Look!

957
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,360
All four of us... Aman is also
joining us after we convinced him.

958
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,040
We'll explain
the valuation rationale also to you.

959
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,080
We assume that the sale
of your growing business, Diabexy,

960
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,280
is Rs. 10 crores.

961
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,440
And let's assume its annual EBITDA
to be Rs. 1 crore.

962
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,600
When we multiplied EBITDA by seven,
we got around 7-8 crores.

963
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,480
Plus there is a value addition
from all four of us.

964
00:46:55,640 --> 00:47:00,040
So we're giving you the combined
equity offer by the four experts.

965
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:04,360
Rs. 1.5 crores for 5% equity
for each Shark.

966
00:47:05,240 --> 00:47:08,280
So, Mr. Lokendra Tomar,
you're left with only one offer.

967
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:13,880
Rs. 1.5 crores for 20% equity
for the four Sharks.

968
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,480
[suspenseful music]

969
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:21,040
I think the valuation

970
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,120
doesn't meet our expectations.

971
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,200
So I'm sorry.

972
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:29,560
I'm open to a deal
for a valuation of Rs. 100 crores.

973
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:30,560
We can think about it.

974
00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:32,600
Otherwise,
I'll improve myself to reach

975
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:33,960
that level and then
I'll come back to you again.

976
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,400
[dramatic music]

977
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,080
- Basically, you want to say that
you want to give 1.5% equity. - Yes!

978
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,520
- Well done, Mr. Lokendra Tomar.
- Thank you, sir!

979
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,320
- If you allow me...
- Sure! Please give us your book.

Can you please sign it for me?

983
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,320
Did you come here
for investment or marketing?

984
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:00,080
I aimed for both things

985
00:48:00,240 --> 00:48:03,480
- but I completed one task at least.
- Wonderful!

986
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,880
- Thank you very much! All the best!
Good luck! - Thank you!

987
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:08,640
- Thank you!
- Proud of you guys.

992
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,480
Hi, Vidit!
It's not important to pursue an MBA

993
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:39,120
to become a successful entrepreneur.

994
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:42,400
You may take my example.
I don't have an MBA degree.

995
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:45,360
And yet I have been an entrepreneur
for the last 12 years.

996
00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:49,080
Um, you get networking
in an MBA school

997
00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:51,160
and they explain
certain business case studies.

998
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,640
Over a period, you may learn
these things by making mistakes

999

while doing your business.

1000
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:59,320
So doing an MBA is an added
advantage but it isn't necessary.
