TMC is over bearish on India. Thoughts on how they portray Indian Startups?

Which media outlet do you think does the worst tech reporting? My vote goes to Moneycontrol: everything is a scoop with a red alert🚨. Saw the third wave article where they are naming Nikhil Kamath intentionally to stir up negativity about him. Also trying to showcase auto drivers as messiah in the Namma Yatri news. 

Other runner ups: The Morning Context & Yourstory. What are yours?

Worst Tech Reporting

Product Manager

I have read this paper since highschool. Now that I’m in the startup space, realising this is utter shit. Like they are tone deaf

What is Economic Times smoking

Every time a startup faces backlash from community or users, the founders just go to YourStory to white wash their image.
Saw OLA's founder Bhavish oozing gyan and patriotism, Zomato's founder Deep come and answer cute simple questions and now Mamaearth before IPO.

They used to do candid reporting but long gone are those days

YourStory has become Startup Washing Machine

- The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) in Bengaluru has admitted BCCI's petition for insolvency proceedings against Byju's over unpaid dues of Rs 158 crore.
- Byju's had a sponsorship contract with BCCI for the Indian cricket team, and the petition was filed last year against its parent company, Think & Learn Pvt Ltd.
- The matter is set for further hearing on November 15, with Byju's previously stating it was in talks with BCCI to settle the issue.
- Tech investor Prosus wrote off its 9.6% stake in Byju's during the financial year 2024, citing a significant decrease in value for equity investors.
- A year-long probe by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs found lapses in corporate governance at Byju's but cleared it of financial fraud, attributing mounting losses to weak governance and compliance practices.

If he gives me ESOPs worth the CEO's shares then sure I would have an entrepreneurial mindset.

According to him we shouldn't care about money

Is this just me or others also think that nowadays all news on startups and companies are coming from grapeviner’s post? Good old journalism is dead and most startup’s journalist are using grapevine posts to write scoops on startups. Sometime without checking and citing anonymous sources. As soon as a new grapevine get posted, within hours it is all over the news. Dear Journalist friends, if nothing atleast give some credit to grapevine in your stories 😉

What do we make of these allegations? 

Does it result in a turmoil in the market in the coming week? 

How does opposition play and make it another witch-hunt

Hindenburg names SEBI chief in new drop

These journalists are not even cross checking any news. 

Headlines are coming out from someone’s tweet or Instagram post. Poonam pandey’s news is one of the example. 

People reading this posts, please do your own due diligence and stop relying on these news portals.

Journalism in India is a joke at this point.

Economic Times reducing Meta to IT company 😐

A two wheeler dealership looking to raise 11-12 crores has got interest worth of 4800 crores from investors.

Crazy Investors

First, they had a layoff.
Lot of good people quit including great people
Then, they had a second lay off 
Some  great people in the leadership quit.
Middle management people are quitting every day.
Only engineers and other people who are not able to get jobs are remaining 
They shut down majority of US acquisitions
They are trying to sell some of them like Tynkr and Epic
Not able to raise funding till now even though trying since December 
Sales is down 90% 
New Inside Sales process is not working 
They are out of runway.

Saw this on Economic Times. How much lower can the media go?
