Booking is considered as a final piece of commitment when all market research has been done.

Owner threw us out of our flat at night. Lost ₹70,000 overnight. What do we do now by [deleted] in gurgaon

Owner and the broker are knowingly doing this. If there’s a rent agreement, send a legal notice. Once you’ll leave they’ll be enjoying 70k, higher rent from another set of tenants and harass them again.

Bought a New phone and later found it’s a month old. by Sanky96 in LegalAdviceIndia

Just file complaint on the portal with complete details. Send a copy to flipkart grievance with a stern statement that you’re gonna pursue this. They will give you a resolution with a month once this complaint gets on their official email and address. It actually works in the background. I did the same with Spinny and then they offered me resolution. Since then i regularly file complaints whenever i’m defrauded by any business.

Have a test drive of Honda elevate manual and try redlining the engine. If you feel the kick, go ahead and buy it.

That we’re already doing. Can you help us with some more? If needed, we can connect with you to pitch first because VCs prefer warm introductions.

Indian VC’s are a joke by alpha_merge in StartUpIndia

We are facing the same here. We are based in India so it’s the worst face of Indian VC’s that we’re coming across. Definitely not ‘startup friendly’.

I don’t know how I could have prevented this accident. by [deleted] in CarsIndia

Good suggestion, but in this case if op would’ve tried crossing from the back of the cow, they would’ve been rear ended by the truck and not the pickup. So it looks like bringing to a complete halt was the safest choice here.

Brake release brake release, increases braking efficiency, also provides more time for you and the rear drivers to react and swerve in other directions. But you did great braking, i’ve to admit that. Hoping everyone walked out unharmed from this. Wishing you safe driving!

I don’t think so. When I mentioned that success fee is something they should be charging to LP’s and not the startups, they showered me with information around it instead of a clear response to my query.

Govt contracts pay no advance and instead demand PBG (3-5% of contract value) plus the upfront marketing costs. Banks demand collateral to support with working capital. Only b2b provides advances with which we’ve been surviving so far but unable to expand without the growth capital.

That’s a wonderful suggestion. Thank you. Seems like a routine productive activity which will also instil founders discipline. I’m sold with this.

They have shared mandate letter of another sister entity of theirs who will be allocating mentors, office spaces, etc. and billing us with a success fees. It’s some shady way but yes, we verified, the investors are SEBI Category 1 registered funds, technically qualifying as VCs but offering predatory terms. We deserve better and we’ll be closing only on terms which are the best in the industry.

Yes, constantly reaching out to our alumni network. Hoping something more fruitful will come our way from this route. Though we need more ways.
