[music fades]

00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,440
Hi, Sharks. I am Richa
and I'm 32 years old.

5
00:00:58,560 --> 00:00:59,440
I'm Vani.

6
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,240
Richa and I have been through
many phases in the past few years.

7
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:06,760
Teenage and motherhood.

8
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:08,920
We also witnessed many changes,

9
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,880
but teens saw the most change
thanks to social media.

10
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,960
The age from eight years
to early adulthood

11
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,760
is quite a sensitive phase.

12
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:20,800
Girls experience a lot of changes.

13
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,480
Emotional as well as
hormonal changes.

14
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,520
- Their bodies undergo
constant change. - That's right.

15
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,680
During this stage,
they need acceptance and confidence.

16
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:31,640
Hmm.

17
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,400
Innerwear has
an important part to play

18
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,720
in that acceptance and confidence.

19
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,680
And so, we present to you D'chica.

20
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,280
[music playing]

21
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,160
D'chica is an innerwear brand

22
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:00,880
And that is why,

23
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,080
today, we're not
just their favourites,

24
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,560
but that of their moms too.

25
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,840
We want to make D'chica

26
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,760
the BFF of every teenage girl
and young woman.

27
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:27,480
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

28
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,720
- She's my brother's wife
and is younger than me. - Oh.

29
00:02:34,920 --> 00:02:39,680
We started a business together
in 2014.

30
00:02:39,920 --> 00:02:42,840
We ended up
burning our fingers badly.

31
00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:44,920
- What was it into?
- Kids wear.

32
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,760
- We lost Rs. 70 lakhs.
- Okay.

33
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,360
- Yours or had you raised it?
- Ours, we hadn't raised money.

34
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,040
- Oh! - We call it
an expensive B-school!

35
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,320
- I see.
- [laughter]

36
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,040
That's a good way...

37
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,720
- I loved it.
- A good way to look at it.

38
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,040
By 2018, we'd realised
that this is not going to work.

39
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,800
So, we were thinking
what to do next.

40
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000
We tried to find the market gap

41
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,680
and were always in survey mode.

42
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,040
Back in 2018-19,
if we looked up Amazon or others

43
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,360
for youth bras
or innerwear for girls,

44
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,240
we'd see middle-aged ladies
modelling innerwear.

45
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,640
If I were a mother,

46
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,640
I wouldn't find it right
to buy that for my daughter.

47
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,920
If were a teen,
I wouldn't connect with it.

48
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,120
It's boring. Why should I wear
what a middle-aged woman is wearing?

49
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:33,840
So, we knew the gap existed.

50
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:37,000
We launched our
first innerwear collection in 2020.

51
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,360
- I come from a media background.
- Okay.

52
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,320
I studied Journalism
from LSR, Delhi.

53
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,680
Do you do the manufacturing yourself

54
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,760
or have you given a contract
to someone for it?

55
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,840
We currently have
five manufacturing units

56
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,320
which we operate out of.

57
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:08,880
That's the whole thing.

58
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,680
The competition is
a big white space.

59
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,840
People treat this
as a category extension.

60
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,240
Which is the biggest brand?

61
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,440
- Jockey is the biggest brand.
- Jockey.

62
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,040
Miss Jockey has eight
to nine styles mostly.

63
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,480
- I could show you our products.
- Please.

64
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:22,920
[light-hearted music playing]

65
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:28,960
Thank you.

66
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,360
This is a normal cotton panty.

67
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:34,960
Very good feel to the fabric.

68
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:36,320
- Good. Soft cotton.
- Almost 100% cotton.

69
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:37,280
Combed cotton.

70
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,240
- There's a bit of Lycra
for stretchability. - Yes.

71
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:40,280
- Otherwise, it's fantastic.
- Yes.

72
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:41,920
- 95 and 5.
- You haven't used polyester.

73
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,440
You have not retained hooks in this.

74
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,120
None of our products have hooks.

75
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:47,600
- So that it's easier to wear.
- Yes.

76
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,360
- Less stressful.
- They poke you.

77
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:50,400
- Right.
- We still remember.

78
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,720
Our first experience
wasn't comfortable.

79
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,920
Also, this is a common problem
in women's innerwear.

80
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,560
You had to choose
from a few sports bras

81
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,080
or cupped bras

82
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,280
with problems in sizing
and discomfort.

83
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,480
Richa has developed silhouettes
that are stretchable.

84
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,840
Dr. Garima is a new angle.

85
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,560
- No? - Dr. Garima is
a consulting gynaecologist with us.

86
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,000
This is something new.

87
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,440
Yes, we do it
for community building.

88
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,160
where they used to ask
not only about the product

89
00:05:25,280 --> 00:05:26,920
but very personal questions

90
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,160
which they probably couldn't
have asked their families or others.

91
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:31,640
Who's the CEO among you?

92
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,680
We haven't filled in the designation
of the CEO yet.

93
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:34,720
- I take all the...
- Why not?

94
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,800
We lacked scale
although we're looking at it.

95
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,840
We recently pulled in my brother
for fulfilment.

96
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,040
- Once he's ready in a few months...
- Your husband.

97
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,280
I'll take on the CEO's role

98
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,880
- [laughter]
- So, 25 crores...

99
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,360
We got Rs. 25 crores pre-money
back then.

100
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,480
Our burn last month
was Rs. 10 lakhs,

101
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,240
No, it's more than that.

102
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,640
- Let me tell you everything.
- [laughter]

103
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,840
Don't you think this team
is too big for your size?

104
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,240
This team is big

105
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,520
It's going to 120 days right now

106
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,280
Let me tell you this, Vani.

107
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,320
If you've burnt
Rs. 2.8 crores last year,

108
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:07,920
I could give you...

109
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:09,960
- Listen to her.
- What you're not factoring is

110
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,120
that you'll have a 20% return...

111
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,240
Rs. 97 lakhs is net of returns.

112
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,040
- That hasn't come in yet.
- I...

113
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,760
When you're operating
at 120 days of credit,

114
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,880
it's as good as returns.

115
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,800
On average, my offline return rate

116
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,320
- is broadly 30%.
- Okay, listen!

117
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,520
- You... - It doesn't work like that,
Vani and Richa.

118
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,960
Right before the financial year,
so many of the goods are sent back

119
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,000
that all your previous numbers
go for a toss.

120
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,560
- For the full year. - We've already
done that because we...

121
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:38,800
- We appreciate that.
- Please go on.

122
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,440
If at Rs. 10 crore sales,
you're at -2.8 crores,

123
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:46,520
bringing any business
from -20% to 0% in six months

124
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,800
without severely
impacting business...

125
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,000
I can give you the math too.

126
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,320
There's optimism in the math
is what I'm telling you...

127
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,040
- No, it's not...
- We can end this conversation

128
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:56,520
and we can go back to Aman.

129
00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:01,320
Oh! You don't think it's catchy.

130
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:02,600
Wasn't just Chica good?

131
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,160
- It's not...
- We didn't find it catchy enough.

132
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:06,280
Bro, I think he's right.

133
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,600
Chica is a fantastic name for you

134
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,280
that is, if it's not taken in India.

135
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,520
Your logo is also quite loud.

136
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,880
- Gen Alpha is moving towards clean
from loud. - Yes.

137
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,320
It's working so far.
The kids are liking...

138
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,400
I shouldn't use kids.
It's a non-brand word.

139
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:24,960
- Teens are liking it.
- The thing about kids is

140
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,280
that eleven-year-olds
don't think of themselves as kids.

141
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,440
They'll think of your logo
as childish.

142
00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:31,560
So, what happened was

143
00:10:31,560 --> 00:10:35,480
we actually showed this logo
to 50 different teams.

144
00:10:35,560 --> 00:10:37,000
It had a few versions.

145
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,720
On the basis of that,
this logo had the most acceptance.

146
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,240
We also liked it.

147
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,040
- A 15-year-old wouldn't find
this childish. - Not at all.

148
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,600
So, Vani and Richa,
unfortunately...

149
00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:50,600
I want to be in,

150
00:10:50,680 --> 00:10:52,520
but I don't think
I'll get my money back.

151
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:54,600
- Ugh...
- [laughter]

152
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,760
No, you will.
I'll give you some more figures.

153
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,640
- You'll be convinced.
- You...

154
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,480
- I'm not convinced
about you, sorry. - Oh!

155
00:11:01,560 --> 00:11:04,880
I believe you and I won't be able
to work together if we collaborate.

156
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,320
So, unfortunately,
I'll have to be out.

157
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,200
I would have loved it
had you been in

158
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:11,920
because my daughter
really likes you.

159
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,440
- I'd like your autograph.
- Ah!

160
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,080
She bought a pair
of boAt headphones

161
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,400
because it's Aman Gupta's company.

162
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,160
That's good.
Do buy more headphones.

163
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:19,200
No, but thank you so much.

164
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,600
Don't stop buying headphones
just because I'm out.

165
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:22,720
[all laugh]

166
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,000
- Vani and Richa.
- Hmm.

167
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,720
The communication dynamic
is just so odd.

168
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,880
I'm not able to put my finger on it.

169
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:31,200
Okay.

170
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,440
You talk a lot and don't listen.

171
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,480
Is that a normal thing for you?

172
00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:37,440
You tell us, Richa.

173
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,600
I think she's very confident
with her numbers.

174
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,440
We feel we're doing it right.
We just want to explain it to you.

175
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,400
I understand,
but do you understand one thing?

176
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,160
You already have offers.

177
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:47,880
- You have soft commitments.
- Yes.

178
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,240
Why are you here then?

179
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,520
We would get your inputs.

180
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:52,840
For that, you need to listen.

181
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,600
You believe that we possess
a certain experience

182
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,600
- that might accelerate
your journey. - Definitely.

183
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,040
Let me give you an example.

184
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,920
I wanted to say it earlier also
but you didn't give me the chance.

185
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,880
The games you're playing in terms
of inventory and distribution,

186
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,760
you're going to have a huge problem
before the end of this year

187
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,360
when your goods come back to you

188
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,560
and your numbers
will not make sense, right?

189
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,440
You have to be open
to understanding.

190
00:12:22,560 --> 00:12:26,280
You just do not wish to accept it.

191
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,600
I don't see that spark right now,
so I'm out.

192
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:31,240
Good luck.

193
00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:32,880
[tense music playing]

194
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,520
Look. I always have this dilemma
in Shark Tank.

195
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,680
The categories I'm not interested in
have really amazing founders

196
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:40,880
and I get excited.

197
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,720
Today, it's the opposite.
I really like this category

198
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,640
but I don't quite understand
the founders.

199
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,440
- What don't you understand?
- Our ability to work together.

200
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,560
- "What don't you understand?"
- You don't listen.

201
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,760
- You know, you...
- I listen.

202
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,480
I mean, we can do this together
or as you wish.

203
00:12:56,560 --> 00:12:57,640
What about you, Namita?

204
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,120
[pensive music playing]

205
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:01,680
Let's go aside and talk.

206
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,920
What's the unorganised and organised
market size?

207
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,200
and teenage girls is 12 crores.

208
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,520
So, if their population is 20%...

209
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,080
If we take
a conservative estimate of 10%,

210
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,160
What's their sale in this category?

211
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,240
- Miss Jockey's.
- We couldn't get their sales

212
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,480
because their numbers
weren't clear anywhere online.

213
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,120
What are Jockey's sales on Amazon
as well as yours?

214
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,080
That'll give us an idea.

215
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:11,560
Today, I am out,

216
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,400
- but I wish you all the best
with the other Sharks. - Thank you.

217
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,640
Vineeta and I
are giving you an offer.

218
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,680
[joyous music playing]

219
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,280
What we like about your business
is the category.

220
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:23,800
You're also focusing on education.

221
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,040
I think that's fabulous.
Much needed.

222
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,880
There are a lot of things
that we don't like, right?

223
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,160
Number one, inventory management.

224
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:43,760
because I don't listen either.

225
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:44,840
I talk a lot.

226
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,640
- That's great.
- That to me is not a problem.

227
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,040
Please invite me
to that board meeting.

228
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,440
- That will make me...
- Who will listen?

229
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:50,960
[all laugh]

230
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,200
So, what we'd like to give you is

231
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,240
Rs. 80 lakhs for 2.5% equity

232
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,400
which comes to about Rs. 32 crores.

233
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,160
And royalty at 1%
given that you're breaking even...

234
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,000
You've given a lot of information
very honestly.

235
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:15,240
Nobody comes here

236
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,360
and gives the offline tertiary data
willingly.

237
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,240
It just shows
that you have too much enthusiasm,

238
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,280
but you're honest and you don't lie.

239
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,400
So, Namita, we had raised

240
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,080
- We're willing to do
Rs 80 lakhs for 2% equity... 80 lakhs

241
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,680
Which by the way, is very generous

242
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,560
given your offline dynamics,

243
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,640
We'll help you.
I think this is a fabulous...

244
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:15,640
Vani, what's your daughter's name?

245
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:16,600
Devyani.

246
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,360
- I'll just write...
- Oh! Thank you so much.

247
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:19,680
Only she can open it.

248
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,720
- Aw!
- Aw!

249
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,800
- Just give it to her.
- What a sweet guy.

250
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,560
Thank you so much.
She will love it.

251
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:26,960
- Thank you.
- All the best.

[theme music playing]

[music fades]

256
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:07,360
Hi, Sharks.

257
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,840
I'm a new smartphone.
People queue up to buy me.

258
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:12,640
I'm in high demand.

259
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,200
It's the same with me.

260
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:15,680
- Liar!
- [laughs]

261
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:16,960
How are you the same?

262
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,760
You're a second-hand phone.

263
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,680
Hey, I'm no second-hand
or old device.

264
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:23,240
I'm a refurbished device.

265
00:18:24,120 --> 00:18:26,680
Just as old houses are renovated,

266
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,480
I, too, am fully renovated.

267
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,480
Scram! No one will believe you.

268
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,520
Guess what? I come with a warranty.

269
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:35,760
- Really?
- That's not all.

270
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:36,960
I'm quite affordable.

271
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,280
You won't have to sell a kidney
to buy me!

272
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:42,640
- Is that so?
- Yes.

273
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:43,840
Then you're the same.

274
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,000
[music fades]

275
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,520
Greetings, Sharks. I'm Avneet.

276
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:53,160
We're from Delhi

277
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,440
and we furbish old phones

278
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,000
he gives his old phone in exchange.

279
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,000
We procure these exchanged phones

280
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,200
from big platforms
like Amazon, Flipkart

281
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,800
we've recently launched

282
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,000
It has very few branded players.

283
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:50,240
Our vision is

284
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:51,800
to become a one-stop destination

285
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,320
for consumers
in the refurbished market

286
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,040
for every refurbished product.

287
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,080
So, our ask is

288
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,880
This is available everywhere.

289
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:13,400
People refurbish old phones
and then sell them.

290
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:18,000
What sets you apart
from everyone else?

291
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,600
with its authentic parts.

292
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,760
We conduct a dual test on it
before running an app.

293
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,600
We run a test when we receive
the phone in a certain condition.

294
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,400
We test it once again
once it is repaired.

295
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:55,800
But there are more businesses
like yours.

296
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,400
- Cashify!
- Cashify!

297
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,480
You said 1.5 million, right?

298
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,600
- 1.5 million phones.
- 1.5 million phones.

299
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,640
When it comes to phones,

300
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,280
how many have Cashify sold?

301
00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:06,960
In terms of number, they
are three times more.

302
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:08,160
It makes them larger in size.

303
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,040
- Right! - What is the difference
between them and you?

304
00:21:11,120 --> 00:21:13,280
In the beginning,

305
00:21:13,360 --> 00:21:15,440
our sole focus was
entirely on offline operations.

306
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,680
There are no competitors
in the market

307
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,200
at the scale at which we
operate within the offline channels.

308
00:21:21,120 --> 00:21:24,360
As of now, this overall industry
is worth ¤5 million.

309
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,760
This entire industry
is growing at 19%.

310
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:29,640
How much is the total
electronics industry?

311
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:30,920
It should be around
¤25 to ¤30 billion.

312
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,800
The smartphone sector is
valued at ¤25 billion.

313
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,920
This is based on reports that
were published three years ago.

314
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,600
- You are saying it has compounded.
- Yes.

315
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:49,960
Let's get to the point.

316
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,760
What is the magic behind
the valuation of Rs. 400 crores?

317
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,200
Tell us about your sales.

318
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,080
What is B2R? Please elaborate.

319
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:05,280
- Business to retailer.
- Offline.

320
00:22:05,360 --> 00:22:07,160
- Business to retailer.
- We sell it at retail stores.

321
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,920
- Is there a distributor, or do
you sell them directly? - Directly!

322
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,120
How much business
did you generate last month?

323
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,280
Your PAT amounted to Rs. 2 crores

324
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,400
on a sale of Rs. 170 crores.

325
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,360
The profit was approximately 1.5%.

326
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,120
- Yes, around 1.6%.
- Okay.

327
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,120
EBITDA...

328
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,320
EBITDA was 1.67%.

329
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:25,720
Hold on!

330
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,600
- Your last year's sale was
Rs. 187 crores. - Correct.

331
00:23:29,120 --> 00:23:30,240
How much was the profit?

332
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,800
- 1.0...
- In value.

333
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,400
We made a profit of around
Rs. 3.5 to Rs. 4 Crores.

334
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,080
- Around Rs. 3.5 to Rs. 4 Crores...
- After discounts.

335
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:39,200
The number doesn't add up.

336
00:23:39,360 --> 00:23:40,760
[tense music playing]

337
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,040
We are receiving
varying figures.

338
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:44,640
The PAT must not
exceed Rs. 2 crores.

339
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,160
What was the EBITDA value,
not in terms of percentage?

340
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:51,440
I will have to calculate the value.

341
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,320
1.67% of 187.

342
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,720
- It should be around
Rs. 2.7 crores. - Yes.

343
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,600
Didn't you take a loan?

344
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,840
- We took a loan. - Then,
EBITDA to PAT cannot be so low.

345
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,920
[tense music playing]

346
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,040
After EBITDA comes
your interest cost.

347
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:22,680
You pay tax to the government.

348
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:24,680
The depreciation comes into it.

349
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,440
- The balance sheets...
- The numbers seem wrong.

350
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,360
Why is there so much confusion

351
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:30,800
with numbers?

352
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,600
Converting in percentage...

353
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,040
You should have a good idea

354
00:24:34,120 --> 00:24:36,640
of the sales and earnings your
business generated last year.

355
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:39,240
I am out.

356
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,520
Whenever an entrepreneur
comes to pitch,

357
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,120
it is important to know the numbers.

358
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,360
There are a lot of numbers.

359
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,560
When we asked about industry
numbers, you got confused.

360
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,920
Then I asked for the number
of sales, but you were unsure.

361
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,480
Even when I asked about profit.
You are confused with numbers.

362
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,560
If you had been prepared better,

363
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,960
I would have felt more
confident to find out more.

364
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,960
Let me tell you
where I have an issue.

365
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:11,360
Ensure that you clearly explain
the distinction between repairing

366
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,840
and refurbishing to your customers

367
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,400
and investors

368
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,280
in a straightforward manner.
There was a lot of confusion.

369
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,240
Second, as Aman said,

370
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:23,360
financials should be
on top of your mind.

371
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,160
EBITDA and PAT

372
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,800
are basic numbers.
You should memorise them.

373
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,520
And for these reasons, I am out.

374
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,880
I have a couple of questions.

375
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,520
You said that this market is
around ¤2.5 to ¤3 billion.

376
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,640
- Okay?
- They said ¤5 billion.

377
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,320
Rs. 40 thousand crores.

378
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,240
Okay? Refurbish, not repair.

379
00:25:43,360 --> 00:25:44,800
- Refurbish, yes.
- Refurbish!

380
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,480
Two of the biggest players.

381
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,680
Their total business
is Rs. 1000 crores.

382
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:51,440
Let's say Rs. 1500 crores.

383
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,040
Where did Rs. 38,000 crores go?

384
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:57,520
Anupam, like you said

385
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,920
small channels...
As we said at the beginning

386
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,440
- the market is unorganised.
- More than 80% of the market

387
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,000
is still unorganised.

388
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:05,120
It is 90%, not 50%.

389
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,920
That is what I said. More than 80%
to 90% market is unorganised.

390
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,160
How many players do you think
will survive till the end?

391
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:12,240
[suspenseful music playing]

392
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,200
What we believe is that seven
or ten years down the line,

393
00:26:15,360 --> 00:26:18,800
- the big brands will enter
the refurbished industry. -Yes.

394
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,480
They will refurbish their phones

395
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,680
- and sell them. - Will your
business cease or will you sell it?

396
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:25,720
No, that is not how it is.

397
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,200
Until then, if we add value

398
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,320
- in 10 years...
- We might refurbish for them.

399
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,240
How big is your next biggest
competitor?

400
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:34,840
Around Rs. 80 to 85 crores.

401
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,040
- Clearly!
- Do you think ReFit

402
00:26:38,120 --> 00:26:40,480
will focus on other gadgets too

403
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:41,960
or will you only
deal with phones?

404
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,040
As of now, we want to
concentrate on phones, Vineeta.

405
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,480
- So, first...
- What will happen in five years?

406
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:48,720
After five years, we
will continue to grow

407
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,320
and establish trust and make it a
one-stop destination in the future.

408
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,920
- But for now... - Do you mean
one place for other gadgets?

409
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,280
We will be focused on
mobile phones for now.

410
00:26:58,480 --> 00:26:59,640
How much loan did you take?

411
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,880
that you know the numbers. I think
you're a little confused.

412
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,240
- Right? - Yes, sir.
- I have an offer for you.

413
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,920
[suspenseful music playing]

414
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,480
Listen to me carefully.
There are a couple of conditions.

415
00:27:31,120 --> 00:27:32,480
Amit, I want you
to listen to this too.

416
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,480
- Why me?
- Why Amit?

417
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,720
- There is a condition with Amit
in it. - The offer is for them.

418
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,360
- Amit is involved
in the condition. - Okay, Amit.

419
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,080
First of all, if Amit joins me...

420
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,080
Because he has experience.
Of course, not with phones.

421
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,240
But understands
refurbishing cars

422
00:27:48,360 --> 00:27:50,600
and what goes into it.
The concept is similar.

423
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,040
So, if he joins me, we will give you
your ask of Rs. 2 crores.

424
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,840
But I will take Rs. 100 as royalty
on every phone.

425
00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,160
[tense music playing]

426
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:02,760
That's not much.

427
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,800
You said you sell a phone
for Rs. 7,000.

428
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,880
A royalty of Rs. 100
is not much.

429
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,480
It's 1.50%.

430
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,200
Until we make two times the money.

431
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,200
Okay? Once it's Rs. 4 crores,

432
00:28:14,360 --> 00:28:16,360
you are off the hook on royalty.

433
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,040
After that,

434
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,680
we will take 1% equity
in your business.

435
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:22,520
0.5% for each of us.

436
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,880
Okay! I will join Anupam's deal.

437
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,560
But with a 14% gross margin...

438
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,040
Forget net margin.

439
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,920
It is difficult to create a brand
with a 14% gross margin.

440
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,280
Having said that,
this is a sweet deal.

441
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:47,480
Sweet for whom?

442
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,960
For the Sharks.

443
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,080
I'll stick with the deal

444
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:55,560
Anupam and Amit agreed on.

445
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,040
1.50% royalty

446
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,680
on your annual sales

447
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,520
until Rs. 4 crores is recouped

448
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,720
from the initial Rs. 2 crores
that I give you.

449
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,360
That is 2x returns.

450
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,840
And the equity you
asked for, which is 0.5%.

451
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,320
She took our deal
and gave you a discount.

452
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,040
[tense music playing]

453
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,000
0.5% equity

454
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,320
is Rs. 400 crores. I gave you
a better deal of Rs. 400 crores.

455
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,280
There is a reason
why I said 'if Amit would join us'.

456
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,640
Because he has expertise
in this area.

457
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,920
But you will have to go to Jaipur
for his expertise.

458
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,360
[suspenseful music playing]

459
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,600
Is there any alternative

460
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,480
to royalty that we can consider?

461
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,160
Tell me! You can
make a counteroffer.

462
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:53,880
Just give us two minutes.

463
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,240
- We would like to discuss.
- Come back with a counteroffer.

464
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,600
[suspenseful music playing]

465
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,400
Sharks, we have a counteroffer.

466
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:03,440
For whom?

467
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:05,400
- For all three of you.
- Three of us? Okay.

468
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:06,520
Please tell us.

469
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,960
Skip the royalty.

470
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,560
and take Rs. 1 crore as equity

471
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,160
- for 0.5%.
- 0.5%.

472
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,960
I also have a counteroffer.

473
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:30,240
If Anupam agrees to it.

474
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,400
We said we want Rs. 100 as royalty
for each phone sold.

475
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:35,840
Make it Rs. 70 royalty per phone.

476
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:42,320
But you don't want to give royalty.

477
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:43,680
- We don't.
- Why not?

478
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,920
- Are you businessmen?
- We are.

479
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:49,840
You are getting Rs. 2 crores.

480
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,480
You mentioned that
you are currently paying

481
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,800
a 15% interest rate in the market.

482
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,000
- But...
- Hold on.

483
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,160
This boils down to what Aman said.

484
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:00,440
I don't think you
understand business.

485
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,080
[tense music playing]

486
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,840
If you withdraw Rs. 2 crores
from the market,

487
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,280
please explain how much is 15%
interest on Rs. 2 crores.

488
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:09,880
- Rs. 30 lakhs.
- Rs. 30 lakhs.

489
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:11,560
We asked for Rs. 70.

490
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:13,840
Considering Rs. 70 per phone,

491
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,560
based on your current
scale, you will pay

492
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:17,960
less than Rs. 25 lakhs.

493
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:22,080
That too only if you are
selling that many phones.

494
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,440
If you sell fewer phones,
you will pay less.

495
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,640
But if you take a loan
of Rs. 2 crores,

496
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,680
- you have to pay a fixed amount
each month. - No!

497
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,760
- Our loans...
- There is a difference.

498
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,440
You said we need to pay royalties
until it reaches Rs. 4 crores.

499
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,360
- If I take a loan... - When you add
interest and the principal amount,

500
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,360
it ends up being Rs. 4 crores.
Please calculate.

501
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,080
How are you here to give equity

502
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,760
if you don't want your
investors to make 2x?

503
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,560
Right now, none of us will
make a deal without royalty.

504
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,920
And I think that is your cutoff.

505
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,200
So, we don't have a deal today.

506
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,720
Apologies, Sharks. We're not
interested in offering royalties.

507
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,280
We don't have a deal
without royalty.

508
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,200
So, thank you so much
for coming to Shark Tank.

509
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,280
Where is the issue?
In doubling the money,

510
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:05,520
or percentage?

511
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,480
- What is the issue? - I think
there's an issue with their mindset.

512
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:09,760
- What is the problem?
- This is a no-brainer for you.

513
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,520
If I figure out what's wrong,
I'll fix it. What is the problem?

514
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,840
There are two things.

515
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,360
- You don't want to
pay Rs. 4 crores, right? - Yes.

516
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,040
Also, the amount is...

517
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,760
I will give you another option.
Let's see what Anupam has to say.

518
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:23,760
Instead of Rs. 4 crores, reduce
the amount to Rs. 3 crores.

519
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,640
Even if you pay
Rs. 30 lakhs in interest,

520
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,560
Rs. 1 crore is paid as interest
in three years.

521
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,280
- I am okay with Rs. 3 crores.
- What about equity?

522
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,800
- Okay!
- If all three of us are in.

523
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:37,080
Yeah! Maybe all three can join.

524
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,880
Our offer is Rs. 2 crores

525
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,880
for 1% royalty of your sales,

526
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,640
plus 1% equity for all three.

527
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,840
Amit, Vineeta, and I
will be part of this deal.

528
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,120
- Thank you!
- Congratulations!

529
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:12,280
Thank you, sir!

00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,560
- Hello, Sharks!
- Hello! - Hi!

534
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,240
Why is it so bright here?

535
00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,600
Shall we dim the lights?

536
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:00,960
Oh!

537
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,320
And follow me.

538
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:07,160
Place your hand on
your heart, like this.

539
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,960
Take a deep breath.

540
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,160
And look towards the ceiling.

541
00:34:15,240 --> 00:34:18,480
Picture your lover's
face on the ceiling.

542
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,760
And that lover shouldn't be
the one you married.

543
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:23,120
[laughing]

544
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,560
Say 'wow' three times after me.

- Wow!
- Wow!

546
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,440
- Wow!
- Wow!

547
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,200
- Wow!
- Wow!

548
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:37,640
Close your eyes.

549
00:34:37,720 --> 00:34:40,720
Exhale and relax.

550
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:42,920
Thank you

551
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,480
for welcoming me

552
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:45,640
with a 'wow!'

553
00:34:45,720 --> 00:34:48,800
- Are you here to pitch
or tear our family apart? - Exactly!

554
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,920
I have arrived to disrupt
the world of Botox and fillers

555
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,760
with my own natural
skincare solutions.

556
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,880
People refer to me as
the Face Yoga Queen of India.

557
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:07,120
Because my techniques will
definitely get all of us seen.

Rs. 1.5 crores for 5% equity.

Thank you.

566
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:05,800
Very confident pitch.

567
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,360
It seems like you've been doing this
for many years.

568
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,160
Sir, I've been doing
face yoga for ten years.

569
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,560
- I did not always look
the way I did. - Seriously?

570
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,200
In 2014, I got to know

571
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,560
that I have
an autoimmune skin condition

572
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:29,880
Is that you?

573
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,640
- Yes, absolutely.
- All four?

574
00:36:31,720 --> 00:36:32,720
Yes, that's right!

575
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:33,800
- My God!
- Really?

576
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:35,640
You've also lost weight.

577
00:36:35,720 --> 00:36:39,680
I'm a Ministry of AYUSH-certified
Yoga Teacher and Evaluator, sir.

578
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:40,720
Oh, I see.

579
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:42,520
I follow a lot of yoga.

580
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:44,960
There are tons
of face yoga videos online.

581
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,600
Why do we need
to take your classes?

582
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:48,960
What different
will you be teaching us?

583
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,600
Namita, the videos
you watch on Face Yoga online,

584
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,240
90% of them are certified by me.

585
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,480
I created an institute

586
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,760
Is yoga your sole focus

587
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,560
or also the serums
and oils over there?

588
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,240
To do face yoga,

589
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,240
serums and oils
are really necessary.

590
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,760
If you do face yoga without oils,

591
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,320
you might stretch or pull your skin.

592
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,480
Other than that,
we also do face yoga facials

593
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:30,040
in my Delhi centre.

594
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:31,600
Is that centre a salon?

595
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,280
- No, sir. It's a wellness centre
in New Delhi. - Oh, okay.

596
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,440
The signature is one of my massages.

597
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,680
I've named it...
It's a copyright massage

598
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:05,960
which I've named Vibhuti.

599
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:07,320

00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,720
So, I'm going to offer you

602
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,200
my double chin corrector.

603
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:16,480
- The first product.
- I don't have it.

604
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:17,800
- I know!
- Give it to them.

- My favourite hair perfume.

[music playing]

610
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,760
The products have a sticker on them

611
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,440
and even the ingredients
are not mentioned.

Do you follow
the FDA registration process?

We are FDA-certified
and CE-certified.

614
00:39:02,240 --> 00:39:03,480
My feedback is

615
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,240
that the packaging
of your skin care products

616
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,000
is extremely disappointing

617
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,520
- compared to everything else
around the brand. - I understand.

618
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,040
This is my celebrity-favourite tool.

619
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,600

[massager whirring]

622
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:28,400
You start by placing the massager

623
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,840
on the first point
right below the eye.

624
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,280
Let the microvibrations
get absorbed.

625
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,440
The maximum puffiness point
lies just below the eye.

626
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:39,880
That's where you press down.

627
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,080
Then, press down on your temples.

628
00:39:43,720 --> 00:39:45,200
Swipe in this manner.

629
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,280
Lift, and then, drain.

[light-hearted music playing]

631
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,840
I did the technique a few times.

632
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,920
It caused a tingling
and a fresh sensation here.

633
00:39:59,000 --> 00:39:59,840
I can feel it.

634
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,640
- Thank you.
- So, it's definitely working.

635
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,560
Is this your own company?
Are there any other investors?

636
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,360
It is 100% owned by me.

637

[Sharks chuckle]

638
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,840
Vibhuti, you have
two revenue models.

639
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:17,520
- Three.
- One... Okay.

640
00:40:17,720 --> 00:40:19,320
One is Face Yoga

641
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,080
While it is good in the long term,

642
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,920
in the short term,
you will lose even this business

643
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:08,160
if you maintain focus on that.

644
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,440
I knew you'd ask me this question.

645
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,680
This was a strategic call for us
last year.

646
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,640
We had to decide
whether to invest in marketing

647
00:41:16,720 --> 00:41:19,080
or our physical space.

648
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,680
Because I am selling an experience

649
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:24,240
and not just education
about face yoga,

650
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,160
we took that call internally.

651
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,360
I am not in this for the short term.

652
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,560
If I were, like every D2C brand,

653
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:36,480
I'd have been spending on marketing
and playing the volume game.

654
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,240
I am here for the long term.

655
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,080
I want to build
a long-term sustainable business.

656
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:44,920
A lot of energy goes
into the wellness centres as well

657
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,920
and that is why I am adding it
and stitching it together.

658
00:41:58,720 --> 00:42:01,480
but products
are your bread and butter.

659
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:02,520
How are they different?

660
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,760
I would say
I am the biggest differentiator.

661
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,080
No. A person can't be
the differentiator.

662
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:11,200
What is unique about your products?

663
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,640
- The ingredients are.
- What are they?

664
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,200
Retinol causes photosensitivity
in people

665
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,760
So, my collagen creams,
in order to make them affordable,

666
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:35,880
we use organic revinage
as well as bakuchiol oil.

667
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,560
Are you the only one in India
who uses revinage?

668
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:39,760
I am the only one right now.

669
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:40,920
- The only one!
- Yes.

670
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:43,280
What percent of your sales
is that product?

671
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,560
as an alternative to retinol,

672
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,640
and you have
the first mover advantage

673
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,680
and you're the only one in India
doing this,

674
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,240
then why only Rs. 25 lakhs sales?

675
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:03,880
It should've killed the market.

676
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,640
This has sown a seed of doubt
in my mind.

677
00:43:07,720 --> 00:43:09,960
Do you even
have a differentiator or not?

678
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:11,960
If you really did,

679
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,360
your product would've had
more than Rs. 25 lakhs sales.

680
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:16,520
For that reason, I am out today.

681
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:17,760
Thank you.

682
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:19,400
I think we all want to understand.

683
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,400
Tell us your organic sales
versus paid sales,

684
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:24,880
and your repeat rate.

685
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:28,400
That will help us gauge
whether your product is stellar.

686
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,760
And our clients' stickiness

687
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,720
or cohort is about 30% overall,

688
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,440
- and 30% in a lifetime. Right?
- Yes.

689
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,320
- Okay. - So, skincare brands
such as face washes

690
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,280
have an M1 of 10-12%,

691
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:58,760
which is month one's
repeat customers.

692
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:03,320
And 12... Lifetime should be over 60%

693
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:10,760
people start using it
on a regular basis.

694
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:11,840
- I...
- The numbers rise quickly.

695
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,120
I didn't read the numbers.

696
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:14,640
Had I known, I would have!

697
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:16,680
What was last month's profit?

698
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:18,920
Last month's sales
were Rs. 40 lakhs.

699
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:27,320
Tell us your unit economics.

700
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,160
- We will know how good
your numbers are. - Sure.

701
00:44:30,240 --> 00:44:32,320
My product cost is 30%

702
00:44:48,240 --> 00:44:51,360
From the logo and packaging
to the ingredients.

703
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,960
Please work on that
and you shall be more investable.

704
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:55,320
Best of luck, I'm out.

705
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:02,760
For now, I am out

706
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:06,360
because I feel that your businesses..

707
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,760
You're taking it in two directions.

708
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:14,040
If it becomes a pure play D2C
within a year or two...

709
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:17,320
I'm not really interested
in the services business.

710
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:21,560
When this heads in the direction
of D2C and picks up scale,

711
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:23,960
then probably you should
come back in Season 4.

712
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:25,920
For now, unfortunately, I'm out.

713
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:28,400
You were very confident.

714
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,120
You handled
everyone's questions well.

715
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,960
I wasn't convinced how the product
was ten times better.

716
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,720
I want to invest in companies
where I feel

717
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:40,200
they're not just a marketing company
but have a solid product.

718
00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,080
That's where
I probably missed the link.

719
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:43,760
So, I am out. All the best.

720
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:44,840
Thank you.

721
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,240
I don't think
you can grow this business

722
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,560
by focusing on services
and franchising.

723
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,160
You need to bring the focus
back on the product.

724
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:54,520
I'm out for that reason.

725
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:55,560
Thank you so much.

726
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:06,480
Joining us on Ask The Shark today

727
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,240
- Welcome, sir.
- Thank you, Rahul.

728
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:16,920
Sir, looking dashing as always.

729
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:18,800
Thank you so much
and you're looking dashing too.

730
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:20,080
As always, sir.

731
00:46:20,240 --> 00:46:22,920
Today's question is
by Ravinder Singh from Bhopal.

732
00:46:38,720 --> 00:46:41,520
Suppose people try your product
and they like it,

733
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,080
they become repeats without you
having spent on marketing.

734
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,360
Then you have
to do brand investing first.

735
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:47,960
So, a burn can be
of different types.

736
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:50,240
- If you see, I always ask
for the unit economics. - Yes.

737
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:52,040
It is to gauge where the burn is

738
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:53,760
and whether the business
is sustainable or not.

739
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:55,640
If the market is big
and the product is good,

740
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:57,320
then the business
will make its mark.
