Wow. 100 Crore revenue. And it accounts for a fourth of the Piramal group's revenue within its consumer products division. https://t.co/svWOAG7cQD https://t.co/zFBPgGUQAn

Bernard Arnault becomes world's richest person. If there ever was a doubt on “brand” being the #1 moat, it can be put to rest. Read so much of his operating muscle over the years, hence not surprised. Also, used his thesis / stories when I was first pitching @DSGCP 3 yrs back! https://t.co/HuwX2aAwXn

Really enjoyed reading this. And hats off to the Pitti brothers 👏🏼 👏🏼 @ppitti @nishantpitti @rikantpitti
Also:
25% of the company @ IPO = ₹500 Cr (& growing) with each founder
- Versus -
5% of a 🦄 = ₹350 Cr (& growing as well, albeit with more dilution, less control) 🤔

Life is more "fair" when people get to keep more of what they earn. And can themselves decide the best use of it, including being able to help others.

I always thought for a certain set of people: “don’t they realise that they trying to act over-smart, play with perceptions, it can be easily seen by others”
Never knew that would be true for governments as well. Tone-deaf. Not realising that folks out there are SMART & GET IT!

I’d become a big fan of @righthalf after reading his book. It inspired a lot of - “how to build, all heart”. When I met him, he wrote a note saying “he’d want to have a ringside view to my journey”. 👆🏼I reminded him that the next year, when he became one of our first Angel 👼💰 https://t.co/VlwIras7tG

A common rhetoric is “hey it’s really difficult to find talent” / while in that case the question should be “what are you doing to increase the talent pool” 🧐

Startups live from month to month. And VC answers live at max upto a quarter. Super short monthly update: sharing key traction updates, learnings, ‘updated view of the future’ et al — always works. Everyone wants to see you between two dots, and draw a line. Make that steep. https://t.co/jUTIHibgDS
