When it comes to securing capital and expert advice from well-known businesspeople in India, there’s no better resource than the hit program Shark Tank India. Our concept was to ask the Shark Tank India Season 2 judges the same kinds of questions they pose to the company founders: about their experience, their business’s sales and earnings, and so on.
1- Anupam Mittal | People Group
After spending four years at MicroStrategy, Anupam Mittal founded People Group, which is responsible for the development of such successful companies as Shaadi.com, Makaan.com, Mauj Mobile, etc.
2- Aman Gupta | boAt
BoAt, founded in 2016 by first-generation entrepreneur Aman Gupta, is widely considered to be the best earwear audio brand in India. As of the year 2020, boAt has already expanded to become the fifth biggest wearables brand in the world.
3- Namita Thapar | Emcure Pharmaceuticals
The CEO of Emcure Pharmaceuticals is Namita Thapar. Her father, Satish Mehta, a second-generation entrepreneur, started the firm in 1981.
4-Amit Jain | CarDekho
Amit Jain, the newest Shark in the tank, spent a year as a Software Engineer at TCS and another almost seven years in various capacities at Trilogy before launching his own business.
5- Peyush Bansal | Lenskart
