The biggest problem is zero innovation in Indian startups most working in the same saturated spaces of ecommerce, delivery, education. Even most fintech ones are neobanks or payment portals. We need more innovative business models and solutions to actual problems in India, not ideas copied from the west.

The general issue is that Indian startups are solving problems that aren't there in the first place... especially in tier 2 and 3 regions

[@_Final_Boss]

I absolutely disagree, because who does not want to get things come right at their door step without even going out? So, my friend it is not about" Indian startups are solving problems that aren't there in the first place" but it is more about money because you need to pay(extra) to make your life easier and people in tier 2 and 3 cities are not willing to pay extra instead they choose to do things in conventional way which thus leads to startup failures in such cities.

Tier 2 and 3 cities guys literally do not have much financial liberty to choose such services offered by start-ups because it literally costs them extra money to spend why would they spend extra on things which they can go and buy.

As an employee in one of the startups mentioned in the video, I 100% agree on the overestimating the market.

[@e.sanoop110]

A decade ago, Entrepreneurs and owners of startups were very serious and passionate about their business and were ready to patiently wait for few years to turn profitable but todays entrepreneurs, business owners and especially their investors expect everything to be profitable instantaneously and hence there is pressure on showing higher sales volumes irrespective of the quality of a product or service, this takes away the focus from actually innovating something and presenting anything which is hugely profitable in the near short term. This is causing startup failures and the resulting layoffs etc.

Some many graduates are going for basic jobs like clerk, bank PO, railway clerk, superintendent. And their success rate is around 0.3%. Imagine, if India has so much unemployment then who’s gonna buy these services. Either give everyone job and make the start up/ make in India boom, or don’t give jobs and suffer economic slowdown.

It's true that a lot of startups are not making much profit, but they are contributing a lot to the society by providing employment, valuable services, products and empowering consumers to a greater extent. Companies like Ola, Rapido, swiggy, Zomato,phonepe,Flipkart,Unacademy, etc are providing valuable services to consumers and making their life easier. They are also learning from their mistakes and with time a lot of the startups will become profitable and provide the investors with greater return on investment.

[@gulammohiddin5747]

All they do are only contributing to the society temporarily.. thats the problem. Indian startups are basically creating an Indian version of Western business models which were successful in the West, where ppl spend more than they actually have. India is a different beast, where people like to think about a better future and save money. Indian Startups need to focus more on solving problems for the majority of the Indian population, who are the middle income class and not the minority who are upper class.

[@rounakmandal948]

@@gulammohiddin5747 I know , but the chances of a startup being successful is quite low. If you analyse data of startups from USA, 90 % of the startups fails, only 40% achieve profitability, 10% of the startup fails within a year. And investors make a lot of money by inflating the value of the startups through funding at crazy valuation. When the startup goes for an IPO investors sell their shares and make crazy amount of profit. The retail investors are the ones who suffers the most. IPO of Paytm, nykkaa, Zomato etc are some examples. That's why Indian startups focused on revenue growth as getting funds was easy. But, now they will have to focus on profitability as easy money isn't available.

WOW! The way you de-jargonised, and explained the entire issue at hand is highly commendable. Most writers and analysts needlessly use complicated language. As someone who has been following the Indian start up scene, I loved this simple explainer!

[@anandsharma7430]

Economists, bankers, accountants always use complex meaningless terms due to the legacy of the British Raj and development of economics in the Victorian / imperial era. I say this as someone who has written code that runs products in retail banking for 100s of banks across India, Asia, Europe. Software engineering as a discipline also makes the same mistake. Excessively intimidating terminology for simple ideas. At this point, the jargon game is essentially a barrier to entry and a rejection filter for all professions related to managing money. I look forward to AI bots developing a simpler jargon file when interoperating, eventually leading to a removal of this barrier. I estimate 50-100 years for this to play out.

A major issue in the ecosystem is the tussle between Value and Valuation. Almost every startup begins its journey by adding some value in the life of customers and eventually increasing its valuation. But later, after a couple of fund raising rounds, it just becomes a game of valuation. Even the cofounders start planning their exits, as if they don't want to take the botheration any more.

But with new revolution there will be more businesses rising in future Let me make it simple so as mohak said that other companies in india can't provide oil like ambani does right but remember once ambani were poor . So if this companies like = zomato , zerodha and cread etc are spending millions of dollars cuz they know india is in revolution and if got that boost in economy it will not stop .mohak actually neglected the points that how india population is so powerful. Like in 1950s we were at 166th number in world in terms of economy but now we are 5th in just 70 years. And these big companies know one day indian economy will grow and indian population will get decline . Just 5% of indian population made india biggest economy maintaining that fact our country is agriculture country but still it didn't supported as much other agricultural countries does . In your house milk man comes and give milk but suddenly country delight comes and say buy our milk . We will shift to country delight but not in just 3 months it will take atleast 3 years for 1/4 india to use country delight milk . More in simple words America has 300 million population India has 1.400 million but as a market we will cut indian population So it will be 800 millions So if you live in USA you have to buy 3x times to compete with usa Market and their living .

Actually even if you are at no1 positions you are not that powerful actually we indirectly neglected 5th player who is actually bank . Bank owns you and your power aslo your friends. Bank want that you should fight and so Bank can earn money .

But here are many investors like 1 st investors giving money to swiggy 2nd one giving money to zomato. And they want that their company should win. But what actually startup want they want to earn money and have profitable business. But investors want the great win ratio they want to destroy many companies so they can be frist. But you may thinking what is main goal of these investors. So these investors want to creat fake competition as Bank do on monopoly. For example did you ever use nataraj or Apsara there always been competition but actually only one investing company owns these both brands. I am telling you one truth I am actually 39 year old . And this is one of the greatest advice I will give you . As I am here at this stage I don't feel like using more of these advices cause I am happy with my life but I will give you only 2 great advices . 1) if you are young try to control your emotions cause one who controls his or her emotions most of today's kids are introvert but try to to be extrovert and introvert at the same time finds a new connection and master your life . 2) doesn't care if you are doing business, job or you are at any sport always try to understand politics in this sector Every sector has a politics understand it but don't interfere creat your own small organization in these groups .

Totally agreed, but the point to be understood here is the psychological mindset before starting a business in India. Today this term has been so much glorified & over-hyped that everybody is running after funding & valuations. Get rich quick schemes depicts the basic mentality of Indians, startup founders think it is an easy money game. But reality hits them hard when they are not being able to generate returns to pay even monthly office rent. Hardly 10% of the startups in India are there for real dhandha, rest are running after marketing, funding, valuation, easy money schemes. Rate at which investors(moti parties) are infusing money into this gimmick is alarming & needs to be stopped & thought upon.

Everyone in the comments are talking about how Indians are mentally designed to save money rather than spending it on luxuries (for me paying delivery charge, even if it's 10rs only then also it is luxury for me) and rather then spending it on luxury I'd also save it and buy it anything from Kirana store only. But you all are not concerned with the fact that in India we have a large population which still falls in the "POOR BRACKET" even according to Keynesian School of Economics if you want people to spend more, then we have to empower them to earn more, if I had salary of 15-16 lacs/annum then I would also not think about that delivery charge or discounts. Start-ups can perform well only and only if these startups are able to employ more people (Gandhian concept: production by masses). For example: (APOLITICAL) Adani's company employs much lesser employs than what TATA employs, TATA is next to Indian armed forces in terms of employment generation. A BUSINESS IS NO GOOD IF IT DOESN'T BENEFITS THE SOCIETY.

In my opinion, the startup ecosystem special after these shark tank, social media viral etc, has become a matter of fashion rather doing serious business. Was watching a "Master Union" show, ft. Ashneer Grover, all the 'urban elite' were coming with such ideas, which is just baseless. Most of the entrepreneurs nowadays coming up with ideas, which are mostly urban focused (that too for the urban elite, not for every urban people), which seem logicless to someone like us from suburban or rural areas. I don't think in daily life, people live with that much aristocracy that these founders are coming with their product or services.

Bro now only the startups are increasing rapidly and in earlier years their were no interest on enterpreneurship , now the people have the x times risk taking capacity And by failing it doesn't means that they are out , but by this they are eager to regenerate the product and come back . This is starting so be calm and atleast they are trying , and learning from their loss or failing in the market One more thing it's not easy to compete with giant companies easily not impossible but takes time

The takeaway is that companies which created product to solve an actual problem, cater to an 'actual' need, they worked. While many companies simply overblowing the balloon of comfort etc, they failed.
