Nopes, in fact parents took a loan from a 3rd party, not directly from Byjus. If you look carefully, when they sell a course on installment, Byjus help them take a loan from Bank or NBFC, not from Byjus itself. So they recieve payment upfront, and there are hundreds of cases where recovery agents are harassing parents for recovering loan money.

I think Indian startups are spending much more on Marketing than continuous R&D or even properly analyzing the market at a long-term basis rather than a short time hype.
India’s startups fail because there is no real middle class to sell to. It is a nation of poor peasants. India always wants to run before it can walk. That’s why India will fail again and again and again. There is no shortcut. India cannot jump from advanced technology when its cities are literally 3rd world cesspits. At no point has that happened to any country ever.
As usual Palki delivers to the point, well researched news, Byju was bound to fail using movie stars and sports stars who charge billions and have nothing to do with education to sell your core product on education 😂
@yangleezhao531 seems like u spent a while pasting the same comment multiple times 🤣🤣 be there under their dictatorship shoes like a cockroach you eat😆
Byju's sponsoring the Indian Cricket team itself should have been the red flag for the investors... but they kept pouring. This is common for all start-ups across the world, not just India
It can never fail and shouldn't there are many Indian Entrepreneurs whom are providing real value to customer rather than romancing the valuation bubble. Palki Sharma did use the correct word its a much needed reset!
The whole reason for creating a startup in India right now is to get rich quick yesterday and sell the company not caring if the business model is sustainable in the longer term.
@yangleezhao531 atleast those CEO's are alive and doing well for the world unlike Chinese ones who literally vanish when the moment they speak anything against their masters 😂😂😂😂
I used byjus for me JEE prep during 2017-18. It had great animated videos to understand physics concepts from microscopes lens to angular momentum. But it spent billions in stupid branding in cricket team or fifa world cup and made it a mess.
@@ravialwayswins you cant imagine everything, somethings are to be taught. Also its impossible to explain concepts like how telescope works in still 2d images. Animations make it quick to understand
I remember few people who used to work in Byjus said the bitter truth of Byjus, saying employees were pressurized from their senior executive to complete the target, and target was nothing but forcing parents to join their children some of them were not even affordable. If the target was not completed, they would get thrashing from their senior people by end of the day, most of people i know left the job within 3 months due to mental stress and unethical work environment.
issue is not one but many are failing in india and at global level. Start ups are not getting level playing ground and big companies are playing shark for their legacy survival.
When a company does what it's not supposed to ends up like this or even worst they will face, karma hits back. I remember many incidents when Byju's science teachers started poking around religion and Indian politics they inevitably met their fate. *Trust of customers plays a larger role in the success of any business, trust lost a business lost.* *Stick up with your business keep your accounts and balancesheet clear to be trustworthy.*
@@bunnyone8047 I think you missed the part where she said the even the founder is no longer a billionaire, so it's pretty obvious that the graph of his wealth too is going down
Oh I had a friend who Just got a Call from Byjus, I saw/heard the Video on You tube and Codeing Ninjas Gate Lock case and shared the same with him and Immediately told the HR as he isn't interested. Thanks Palki for making this a official Media document.
I love how Palki has this ability to make every news sound like it's a mystery/conspiracy or something to be wary of 😂😂😅, every video of hers is gripping.
You are 100% correct. It's greed, high prices, unfulfilled promises. Their program cost more than a degree, at an age when most kids arent even sure about what they wanna be when they grow up.
If only Byju had poured much attention in the quality of service that was offered initially, maintained that, gained loyal customers, sticked to that promised 'Education quality'... they would have been growing irrespective of pandemic or post pandemic.... Instead of that he kept the engine of Byju on autopilot mode with the accountability only with marketing team hitting numbers... No customer experience check, no quality of service check, no feedback check.. absolutely nothing.... While this was happening he was too greedy for expansion plans with other edu techs.... What a clear case example of a founder losing his vision that he had and let his fame and greed takeover him.... Now he don't have either what he was running for nor what he had earlier... He tarnished his own name... BYJU being most cursed service by customers who took their product service. I personally have not heard even 1 person talking good about the service.
BYJU never understood Teaching Industry. They were acting like Marketing agency rather than Edtech. People dont see brand they see Education quality and Affordability. They neither had Good Teacher/Content nor Ecosystem.
Byju's deserved this, they went on a shopping spree, with a flawed business plan and spent too much on world-class celebrities when they were sitting on high-interest loans. I can't fathom how the founders and top management just thought it was rational to go spend like this.
The fall of Indian startups focused on India consumers show that there isnt enough purchasing capability in domestic market. Hence, could be the signal of a flawed market or failing economy.
@@smeshnoymatvey2054 Very well said. These startups want consumers to increase their average spending on each particular item. Like why use a 200rs shampoo use a 500rs because it's ayurvedic or natural so spend 300rs extra everyone for shampoo, same is the case with Ed tech startups they want exorbitant amount of money for online courses and classes and then many are trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist. The crux of the startup IMO is either to reduce the cost of the product to the consumer so that they save money or increase their efficiency in any manner like time, productivity or quality.
Startup is a celibrity word in India. It is used in every galli nukkad.. Even the small vendors call their's as a startup... The risk behind a startup idea is more than a business. It's an unknown territory. So you have to follow some rules and regulations. When a startup gets initial funding suddenly there is a rush to acquire other businesses in the name of expansion...At a point there is differences between the promoters and result in court cases. There are many startups also who are doing very good in their business.
There was a time when Parents were complaining that before purchasing courses from BYJUS their sales executives said we will refund your money if you don't like our courses. and later on they have cheated with most of students. they didn't even refund any money. when your fundamental objective is to earn money. That is good that's what businesses do, But if somebody is not satisfy with product you must look at it, and focus on how can you make it better. No but what they did they have developed strategies that their sales executives will trap you by sweet talks and make you agree to purchase their courses but when you don't like it and ask for refund then they didn't even response. i don't know about others but BYJUS deserves It.
Very well researched candid presentation, as usual by first post! We in India are experiencing the same problem in Leh Ladakh, Himachal and Rann of Kutch area, where, high and roudy tourists , just for thrill, go overboard in damaging the fragile eco - system due to high rate of tourists! Request you to bring it to the forefront, so that local and higher administration could take preventive measures,befor it is too late!
BYJU failed because it was too aggressive and way too much money pored into it. So inturn it needed profit accordingly. So became unethical and you know the rest. Nothing else.
@@vhrui904well , they're investing because of hunger index 107 , because that means, cheaper labour, plus India is a democracy unlike China, which is a dictatorship. Maybe, they didn't want to eat gutter oil. Or just didn't like Winnie the poo
Many startups were overvalued during the lockdown time and when the lockdown was lifted globally, demand for their products and services decreased and in order to retain the existing customers, they tried giving huge discounts and went on big marketing campaigns causing cash burn again. With decreasing demand and increasing expenses and pressure from their investors to show profits, these startups have no choice but to do layoffs. Over valuation, incorrect valuation and not doing correct demand forecasting for products and services will become a big problem for a company in the future.
Byjus is a great example how such a sector is made into a Unicon. It is a sector issue and we should thank him to make it. Education is a sector where the techniques are learned by everyone. Remember there is a massive learning and teaching platform that is already available which is catching up. The differential value come down automatically with time. The sustainability is the key.

Because they take a lot of investment too early before even building trust and foundation in the market. Most of it goes in over hyped marketing. And once investors exit they crash
@@venkateshmarpuri9336 I am not saying investment is bad.. but too much of it that too getting drained in marketing early on in biz to hype even the valuation is not sustaining for the business.. foundation of business in market is based on many important factors and cannot be replaced by mere marketing and hyped valuation.
The economy is already in shreds sadly 😔. I used to think everybody went broke during the Great Depression and other major crashes but they didn’t… Some made millions, I also thought everybody went out of business during these times but they didn’t, some went into business, there's always depression/recession for some people and there's always a good time for others, it's all about perspective.
I agree that there are strategies that could be put in place for solid gains regardless of economy or market condition, but such executions are usually carried out by investment experts or advisors with much needed experience
The effects of the U.S. dollar's increase or fall on investments, in my opinion, are complex, but it has never been simpler to learn how to build your money than it is right now, when you may discover and experience a genuinely broad market passively by working with a successful Financial Consultant.
My financial consultant is Salvatore Fortunato Sofia. I reached out to her after finding her on a Kiyosaki interview where she was the guest speaker. She's provided entry and exit points for the stocks I primarily focus on. She's built a reputation online. You can quickly search for her online if you feel the urge to get in touch. I essentially duplicate her marketing tactics.
I live in US, but visit my motherland every year. I'm surprised how companies like Byju's even exist? It only shows how Indian startups prey on their middle class. Everything you want to learn is today available on the internet for free. China has even banned Ed-Tech startup for the exact same reason. Hope GOI shuts down such fraudulent companies. Instead appreciate business that are rooted in Indian culture.
When startups focus more on making quick money than solving problems, they obviously fail sooner or later. The basic needs of healthy food and quality education should never be commercialized.
Indian startups and VCs are playing the game of "Iski topi uske sar". These VCs are mostly Western companies who are pumping money into Indian startups, they don't care if it is profit or loss. In the end, they will bring IPO and will get their returns from the retail investors of India. So it is the Indian people who are at a loss. Huge respect for Ambani, Adani, Tata, Mahindra, and all those businessmen who build traditional and profitable businesses.
According to me major reason behind byjus downfall is that they are putting a lot in advertisement rather than improving their teaching style or we can say technologies
Byju is an example for unethical practice in startups and all there actions are of don'ts in bussiness. Byju shouldn't be example for Indian startups. Byju should learn integrity, commitment and customer satisfaction.
The main reason for the fall of Byju was its deviation from what it’s supposed to do provide education…… when the firm got fame it deviated from its main aspect and concentrated on money…. Customer satisfaction became secondary and people got irritated from its constant call for join their package…. Children studying from 8th grade and above was ok but they stooped down to lower level making applications from kindergarten……. We hear lot of problems of children addicted to mobiles and tabs from young age but Byjus organization didn’t care about that but wanted money from parents for unnecessary things.
It's very good news... They were purchasing other platforms and killing the competition in market so that they can charge at their will. But now competition is back and they will have to reduce their prices and charge fairly.
Rajiv Tarleja, the business coach, made a beautiful remark on Indian startup ecosystem - They are more concerned about their valuations than creating Value!
Being a serial entrepreneur and from amongst the first generation of startups in India. I can tell you it’s about ethics, being ethical is the hidden edge that most entrepreneurs lack. The day the breed has integrity and can demonstrate trust, the startup cycles will stop failing in Bharat.
While it is true that certain Indian startups, such as Byju's, have faced obstacles and encountered setbacks, it would be unfair to label their failures as representative of the entire Indian startup ecosystem. Byju's, despite its challenges, has also achieved considerable success and is recognized as a prominent player in the edtech sector. It is important to acknowledge that the startup landscape is inherently challenging, both in India and globally. Startups face various hurdles such as market competition, regulatory complexities, financial constraints, and evolving consumer preferences. Many factors contribute to the success or failure of a startup, and it would be erroneous to generalize the failures of a few as indicative of the entire startup ecosystem. In reality, India's startup ecosystem has witnessed remarkable growth over the years, with numerous success stories to celebrate. Startups like Zomato, Ola, Flipkart, and Paytm have achieved significant milestones, attracting substantial investments and making a positive impact in their respective industries. These success stories highlight the resilience, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit prevalent in the Indian startup ecosystem. They demonstrate that despite the challenges faced, many startups in India are thriving, creating employment opportunities, driving economic growth, and contributing to technological advancements. Therefore, while it is essential to critically analyze the reasons behind startup failures, it is equally important to recognize the achievements and potential of the Indian startup ecosystem. By focusing solely on the failures, we risk overlooking the successes and the transformative impact that startups are making in India.
@@FTualist I understand that you might have a perspective on Indian startups being copies of American ones, but let's not oversimplify the entire situation. While it's true that some startups in India might have taken inspiration from successful American counterparts, it's essential to recognize the broader context. Firstly, emulation and iteration are fundamental aspects of innovation. Startups worldwide, including American ones, have often been inspired by previous successful models and built upon them. It's not exclusive to India. This process of learning from existing success stories is common in the entrepreneurial world. Secondly, India's startup ecosystem is much more diverse and dynamic than it's often given credit for. The country boasts a plethora of innovative startups that have brought unique solutions to global problems. From fintech to healthcare, education, and agriculture, Indian startups are making significant strides in various sectors. Thirdly, India's "industrial age" characterization is a misconception. India has rapidly embraced digital transformation and technology adoption in recent years. Its IT industry and software services are globally recognized, and the country has emerged as a major player in the tech world. This transition is more than evident in the increasing number of tech-driven startups that are reshaping the landscape. Let's celebrate the spirit of entrepreneurship, regardless of geographical boundaries. Innovation knows no borders, and each country contributes its own set of ideas and solutions. Rather than making sweeping generalizations, let's appreciate the efforts of entrepreneurs worldwide, including those in India, who are striving to create innovative solutions and positively impact our lives.
Can you provide a comparison to how the startup world is faring in other places like the US? Is there a journey this new industry is on, where is India ahead and where do we lag
Byju’s had the worst reputation, although I’ve not been affected by it myself. It’s high time Indian startups spend more time and resources in R&D without marketing, like someone has already mentioned!
When learning is free in internet, how can Byju be a success? Second Byju owners though too highly of their idea but didn't offer something extraordinary on its platform. Third, extremely negative reviews through employees.
First of all you cannot say all startups are failing just by taking a very few examples. However it doesn't take a genius to say that BYJUs were not t at all doing the sustainable business, their sales practices were terrible - harassing student parents, their aggressive marketing, over ambitious projects, with no consideration of results, very poor focus on the actual student growth. They ran their business in auto pilot mode, they were hoping or praying that things might fall into place eventually but that is far from reality. I personally hope BYJUs to shut down soon the way they operate.
Finally someone spoke freely about such a hollow unicorn. Would request Ms. PSU not to bother to tell about involvement of Government malign intention as well.
This was bound to happen, was clear back in 2020 itself. All the investors who are losing money now deserve this loss, they all knew about the wrongdoings but did nothing and just focused on revenue and taking evaluation higher.
@@shashianand250 they had a vision. They knew how to burn the cash effectively. Startup founders here are forced to show growth instead of profits and that trend is changing.

If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional like I did. If you get the facts about saving and investing and follow through with an intelligent plan, you should be able to gain financial security over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.
The stock market rally run is gone, but I'm not sure if equities will swiftly recover, keep falling, or fluctuate in a narrow range for a few weeks, or if things will quickly get worse. I'm under pressure to increase my $300k reserve.

I bought their product and found it completely and utterly useless as it can never replace the feature of a physical teacher. Utter nonsense. Will be more than happy to see byjus doomed
Good one. Sadly, Byju's valuation is less than a billion dollars now... Unfortunate reality in Indian start up scene is (usually) -- most founders are worried about Valuation Vs worrying about Value to the Customer! They hv more or less forgotten the P&L Value! That's the main issue...
Palki, your content delivery is spot on, as always! I have a slightly different suggestion, though. Since you moved to Firstpost from Wion, the fact that you are looking at the teleprompter is more noticeable. It does not feel natural and disturbs the viewers when they look at you. Please look into this. It seems the teleprompter is a little high, reducing its height a bit might solve the problem. Hope you don't take it as criticism, but a friendly suggestion :)

Once they had amassed sufficient funds to bring on board celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan and Lionel Messi, they outgrew the startup label. The yardstick for their success should no longer be that of a startup, but rather that of a large company. The startup culture empowers ordinary individuals to dare to dream big, fostering innovation that has liberated us from the constraints of platforms like Doordarshan. Recall how TH-cam, where Palki currently thrives, once started as a humble startup and was eventually acquired by google. Hence, I hope that the next ambitious middle-class individual will not be deterred by these viewpoints.

It can never fail and shouldn't there are many Indian Entrepreneurs whom are providing real value to customer rather than romancing the valuation bubble. Palki Sharma did use the correct word its a much needed reset!
The whole reason for creating a startup in India right now is to get rich quick yesterday and sell the company not caring if the business model is sustainable in the longer term.
VCs also want to invest in high scale innovative startups where they can get maximum capital gains and exit
because startups in India do not last

There were so many stories of Byju’s employees being made to work 60+ hours per week and not being able to even take sick days.
I used byjus for me JEE prep during 2017-18. It had great animated videos to understand physics concepts from microscopes lens to angular momentum. But it spent billions in stupid branding in cricket team or fifa world cup and made it a mess.
Animation kills creativity and imagination in kids. Also in real life, problems dont come alongwith an animated explanation
@@ravialwayswins LOL, learning basic concepts via animations are good but if the Child has zero real life experience, he/she will be like a parrot. xD
In the name of live classes sold recorded videos. Karma will definitely hit them.
@@ravialwayswins you cant imagine everything, somethings are to be taught. Also its impossible to explain concepts like how telescope works in still 2d images. Animations make it quick to understand

I remember few people who used to work in Byjus said the bitter truth of Byjus, saying employees were pressurized from their senior executive to complete the target, and target was nothing but forcing parents to join their children some of them were not even affordable. If the target was not completed, they would get thrashing from their senior people by end of the day, most of people i know left the job within 3 months due to mental stress and unethical work environment.

Oh I had a friend who Just got a Call from Byjus, I saw/heard the Video on You tube and Codeing Ninjas Gate Lock case and shared the same with him and Immediately told the HR as he isn't interested. Thanks Palki for making this a official Media document.
If the stem grow too fast and too tall while roots are still small... the tree is bound to fall.
I love how Palki has this ability to make every news sound like it's a mystery/conspiracy or something to be wary of 😂😂😅, every video of hers is gripping.
Miss Palki should educate all startups the way to make more money than sitting in front of a teleprompter and reading boring news.
Only one reason: greed. Most Indian startups try to fly before they can walk!
You are 100% correct. It's greed, high prices, unfulfilled promises.

If only Byju had poured much attention in the quality of service that was offered initially, maintained that, gained loyal customers, sticked to that promised 'Education quality'... they would have been growing irrespective of pandemic or post pandemic.... Instead of that he kept the engine of Byju on autopilot mode with the accountability only with marketing team hitting numbers... No customer experience check, no quality of service check, no feedback check.. absolutely nothing.... While this was happening he was too greedy for expansion plans with other edu techs.... What a clear case example of a founder losing his vision that he had and let his fame and greed takeover him.... Now he don't have either what he was running for nor what he had earlier... He tarnished his own name... BYJU being most cursed service by customers who took their product service. I personally have not heard even 1 person talking good about the service.
BYJU never understood Teaching Industry. They were acting like Marketing agency rather than Edtech. People dont see brand they see Education quality and Affordability.
They neither had Good Teacher/Content nor Ecosystem.
Byju's deserved this, they went on a shopping spree, with a flawed business plan and spent too much on world-class celebrities when they were sitting on high-interest loans. I can't fathom how the founders and top management just thought it was rational to go spend like this.
The fall of Byju's gives me peace.
The fall of Indian startups focused on India consumers show that there isnt enough purchasing capability in domestic market. Hence, could be the signal of a flawed market or failing economy.
Deep dark but true
Or people got fed up buying the snake oil there were being sold.
People are buying things that actually work . Unfortunately most start-ups sell hot air. So fault may be in products offered by most start-ups.
@@smeshnoymatvey2054 Very well said. These startups want consumers to increase their average spending on each particular item. Like why use a 200rs shampoo use a 500rs because it's ayurvedic or natural so spend 300rs extra everyone for shampoo, same is the case with Ed tech startups they want exorbitant amount of money for online courses and classes and then many are trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist. The crux of the startup IMO is either to reduce the cost of the product to the consumer so that they save money or increase their efficiency in any manner like time, productivity or quality.
Mam they deserve it....even more they deserve...business runs on ethics and moral not blood and soul..
They want to go public (VC & founders) and have fun with public money but Karma never forgets an address.

Startup is a celibrity word in India. It is used in every galli nukkad.. Even the small vendors call their's as a startup... The risk behind a startup idea is more than a business. It's an unknown territory. So you have to follow some rules and regulations. When a startup gets initial funding suddenly there is a rush to acquire other businesses in the name of expansion...At a point there is differences between the promoters and result in court cases. There are many startups also who are doing very good in their business.
There was a time when Parents were complaining that before purchasing courses from BYJUS their sales executives said we will refund your money if you don't like our courses. and later on they have cheated with most of students. they didn't even refund any money. when your fundamental objective is to earn money. That is good that's what businesses do, But if somebody is not satisfy with product you must look at it, and focus on how can you make it better. No but what they did they have developed strategies that their sales executives will trap you by sweet talks and make you agree to purchase their courses but when you don't like it and ask for refund then they didn't even response. i don't know about others but BYJUS deserves It.
Very well researched candid presentation, as usual by first post!

Many startups were overvalued during the lockdown time and when the lockdown was lifted globally, demand for their products and services decreased and in order to retain the existing customers, they tried giving huge discounts and went on big marketing campaigns causing cash burn again. With decreasing demand and increasing expenses and pressure from their investors to show profits, these startups have no choice but to do layoffs. Over valuation, incorrect valuation and not doing correct demand forecasting for products and services will become a
big problem for a company in the future.
Byjus is a great example how such a sector is made into a Unicon. It is a sector issue and we should thank him to make it. Education is a sector where the techniques are learned by everyone. Remember there is a massive learning and teaching platform that is already available which is catching up. The differential value come down automatically with time. The sustainability is the key.

Because they take a lot of investment too early before even building trust and foundation in the market. Most of it goes in over hyped marketing. And once investors exit they crash
With investment they have Grown what they are now
@@venkateshmarpuri9336 I am not saying investment is bad.. but too much of it that too getting drained in marketing early on in biz to hype even the valuation is not sustaining for the business.. foundation of business in market is based on many important factors and cannot be replaced by mere marketing and hyped valuation.
The economy is already in shreds sadly 😔. I used to think everybody went broke during the Great Depression and other major crashes but they didn’t… Some made millions, I also thought everybody went out of business during these times but they didn’t, some went into business, there's always depression/recession for some people and there's always a good time for others, it's all about perspective.
I agree that there are strategies that could be put in place for solid gains regardless of economy or market condition, but such executions are usually carried out by investment experts or advisors with much needed experience
The effects of the U.S. dollar's increase or fall on investments, in my opinion, are complex, but it has never been simpler to learn how to build your money than it is right now, when you may discover and experience a genuinely broad market passively by working with a successful Financial Consultant.
@@mcginnnavraj4201 That does make a lot of sense, unlike us, you seem to have the Market figured out. Who is this consultant?
My financial consultant is Salvatore Fortunato Sofia. I reached out to her after finding her on a Kiyosaki interview where she was the guest speaker. She's provided entry and exit points for the stocks I primarily focus on. She's built a reputation online. You can quickly search for her online if you feel the urge to get in touch. I essentially duplicate her marketing tactics.
Which economy?
I live in US, but visit my motherland every year. I'm surprised how companies like Byju's even exist? It only shows how Indian startups prey on their middle class. Everything you want to learn is today available on the internet for free. China has even banned Ed-Tech startup for the exact same reason. Hope GOI shuts down such fraudulent companies. Instead appreciate business that are rooted in Indian culture.
The level of satisfaction I am having by listening to this is immesurable ‼️
This was inevitable for Byjus. It's the most shittiest ed tech startup, I'm worried about the poor employees who'll loss their jobs.
Don’t worry they will get jobs in scam call centres with their harassment skills.
Thanks for the eye opening contents..

Indian startups and VCs are playing the game of "Iski topi uske sar". These VCs are mostly Western companies who are pumping money into Indian startups, they don't care if it is profit or loss. In the end, they will bring IPO and will get their returns from the retail investors of India. So it is the Indian people who are at a loss. Huge respect for Ambani, Adani, Tata, Mahindra, and all those businessmen who build traditional and profitable businesses.
This is not just Indian startups. Startups in general and tech in general have got a huge setback starting 2022.
True but startups are the one that are getting all the scrutiny, it's just a bear market trend that's happening right now.
Syana mat ban
This is result of west apparantly 'punishing' Russia. We all can see who got punished.
According to me major reason behind byjus downfall is that they are putting a lot in advertisement rather than improving their teaching style or we can say technologies
Byju is an example for unethical practice in startups and all there actions are of don'ts in bussiness. Byju shouldn't be example for Indian startups. Byju should learn integrity, commitment and customer satisfaction.
The main reason for the fall of Byju was its deviation from what it’s supposed to do provide education…… when the firm got fame it deviated from its main aspect and concentrated on money…. Customer satisfaction became secondary and people got irritated from its constant call for join their package…. Children studying from 8th grade and above was ok but they stooped down to lower level making applications from kindergarten……. We hear lot of problems of children addicted to mobiles and tabs from young age but Byjus organization didn’t care about that but wanted money from parents for unnecessary things.
Such a encouraging ending at the end of the report. Very nice 👍
It's very good news... They were purchasing other platforms and killing the competition in market so that they can charge at their will. But now competition is back and they will have to reduce their prices and charge fairly.
Rajiv Tarleja, the business coach, made a beautiful remark on Indian startup ecosystem - They are more concerned about their valuations than creating Value!
Being a serial entrepreneur and from amongst the first generation of startups in India. I can tell you it’s about ethics, being ethical is the hidden edge that most entrepreneurs lack.
The day the breed has integrity and can demonstrate trust, the startup cycles will stop failing in Bharat.
Indian Startups: From illusion to reality...✨🇮🇳
While it is true that certain Indian startups, such as Byju's, have faced obstacles and encountered setbacks, it would be unfair to label their failures as representative of the entire Indian startup ecosystem. Byju's, despite its challenges, has also achieved considerable success and is recognized as a prominent player in the edtech sector.
It is important to acknowledge that the startup landscape is inherently challenging, both in India and globally. Startups face various hurdles such as market competition, regulatory complexities, financial constraints, and evolving consumer preferences. Many factors contribute to the success or failure of a startup, and it would be erroneous to generalize the failures of a few as indicative of the entire startup ecosystem.
In reality, India's startup ecosystem has witnessed remarkable growth over the years, with numerous success stories to celebrate. Startups like Zomato, Ola, Flipkart, and Paytm have achieved significant milestones, attracting substantial investments and making a positive impact in their respective industries.
These success stories highlight the resilience, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit prevalent in the Indian startup ecosystem. They demonstrate that despite the challenges faced, many startups in India are thriving, creating employment opportunities, driving economic growth, and contributing to technological advancements.
Therefore, while it is essential to critically analyze the reasons behind startup failures, it is equally important to recognize the achievements and potential of the Indian startup ecosystem. By focusing solely on the failures, we risk overlooking the successes and the transformative impact that startups are making in India.
@@FTualist
I understand that you might have a perspective on Indian startups being copies of American ones, but let's not oversimplify the entire situation. While it's true that some startups in India might have taken inspiration from successful American counterparts, it's essential to recognize the broader context.
Firstly, emulation and iteration are fundamental aspects of innovation. Startups worldwide, including American ones, have often been inspired by previous successful models and built upon them. It's not exclusive to India. This process of learning from existing success stories is common in the entrepreneurial world.
Secondly, India's startup ecosystem is much more diverse and dynamic than it's often given credit for. The country boasts a plethora of innovative startups that have brought unique solutions to global problems. From fintech to healthcare, education, and agriculture, Indian startups are making significant strides in various sectors.
Thirdly, India's "industrial age" characterization is a misconception. India has rapidly embraced digital transformation and technology adoption in recent years. Its IT industry and software services are globally recognized, and the country has emerged as a major player in the tech world. This transition is more than evident in the increasing number of tech-driven startups that are reshaping the landscape.
Let's celebrate the spirit of entrepreneurship, regardless of geographical boundaries. Innovation knows no borders, and each country contributes its own set of ideas and solutions. Rather than making sweeping generalizations, let's appreciate the efforts of entrepreneurs worldwide, including those in India, who are striving to create innovative solutions and positively impact our lives.

Byju’s had the worst reputation, although I’ve not been affected by it myself. It’s high time Indian startups spend more time and resources in R&D without marketing, like someone has already mentioned!
Thanks Palki for bringing this up.
When learning is free in internet, how can Byju be a success?
Second Byju owners though too highly of their idea but didn't offer something extraordinary on its platform.
Third, extremely negative reviews through employees.
First of all you cannot say all startups are failing just by taking a very few examples. However it doesn't take a genius to say that BYJUs were not t at all doing the sustainable business, their sales practices were terrible - harassing student parents, their aggressive marketing, over ambitious projects, with no consideration of results, very poor focus on the actual student growth. They ran their business in auto pilot mode, they were hoping or praying that things might fall into place eventually but that is far from reality. I personally hope BYJUs to shut down soon the way they operate.

If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional like I did. If you get the facts about saving and investing and follow through with an intelligent plan, you should be able to gain financial security over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.

Once they had amassed sufficient funds to bring on board celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan and Lionel Messi, they outgrew the startup label. The yardstick for their success should no longer be that of a startup, but rather that of a large company. The startup culture empowers ordinary individuals to dare to dream big, fostering innovation that has liberated us from the constraints of platforms like Doordarshan. Recall how TH-cam, where Palki currently thrives, once started as a humble startup and was eventually acquired by google. Hence, I hope that the next ambitious middle-class individual will not be deterred by these viewpoints.
