Today’s episode will not just give you insights on business but will inspire you towards business.In this episode, we talked about how Bellavita was started with skincare products, how it used to make 2-3 crores a month, how it got approached by the Ananta Capital’s team and how they strategically invested, and how he got 60 crores after selling half of his company and the growth journey of Bellavita. He shared how Strategic investors are different from Venture Capitalists. We talked about the perspective behind the words business and startup. He also shared a step-by-step process for anyone to start a business and how they can scale with time. He also shared about his first heartbreak and how it led to Bellavita perfumes, he then shared business opportunities in India, and how to take Indian business globally.
