Cred is doing good in loans... they have reduced marketing costs to almost 0.. they are also almost CM2 positive

SwirlyTaco

PayTM14mo

Paytm 2-3 years max. PPBL news has already broken a significant revenue source for them directly as well as indirectly. They don't have any significant edge over PhonePe.

The only reason why it could still survive somehow is because govt doesn't want the majority of UPI market share to go to just one particular app

PayTM14mo

Btw Paytm has immense potential to tap into. They just need a complete overhaul of its people and culture. In the age of automation work still happens over excel files of size 1L+ rows

SquishyPanda

Flipkart14mo

Actually they have cash of 8k-10k crores available with them so they have a lot of run way to figure out alternate business models to grow into. And on top of that VSS is committed and has a good immediate leadership team as well

JazzyWalrus

Stealth14mo

Dunzo, Zepto, most AI wrapper startups, most D2C food chips, coffee, bhel startups. Either they will shutdown or operate in a survival mode.

I don't know about Zepto, it might get acquired or something but these AI wrapper start-ups, pretty sure they gonna close

ZestySushi

Tide14mo

Jar, doesn't have a runway of 5-6 months

QuirkyQuokka

You sure about this? They raised a lot.

Not a believer in Byju myself, but even after all the drama they still have close to 1500cr annualised revenue. Don’t think it’s gonna die that soon

Swiggy14mo

I think Scaler Academy
Saw an random chat on Reddit and that guy was promoting It

Someone asked hows their business going seeing the condition of EdTech

Newton too it seems

What’s happening with Upgrad btw?

GigglyNarwhal

Sharechat14mo

Sharechat Its target users are from tier 2 and 3 cities. It is hard to earn from such users. Also their MAU is decreasing with time due to the increased number of ads.

GroovyMarshmallow
