From breaking down why valuations are often misunderstood, to explaining the realities of dilution, exits, and anti-dilution clauses, Anupam reveals what truly matters when building a company that lasts. He shares candid insights on what separates missionaries from mercenaries, why India’s mergers and acquisitions ecosystem is still evolving, and how he evaluates entrepreneurs beyond just their pitch. Along the way, he opens up about his own hiring frameworks, the importance of unnamed reference checks, and how leaders should handle arrogance, egos, and team dynamics. Packed with wisdom from one of India’s most experienced entrepreneurs and investors, this conversation is a must-listen for anyone serious about startups and the business of building legacies.
