The last week we saw some amazing and inspiring pitches, some of the brands and companies that were successful to bag a deal were , ‘TheQurikyNaari’, ‘GetAWhey’, ‘KGAgrotech’.
Anupam Mittal feels that the show has the potential to make entrepreneurship a dinner-time conversation for families by bringing it out of closed-door venture capitalist conversations. 18 per cent of the pitches on Shark Tank India were made by couples and 34 per cent by families, he said. Nearly 40 per cent of the companies on the show were launched during the Covid pandemic. 70 per cent of the contesting companies had no previous funding, Anupam Mittal said. Anupam Mittal said one-third of the pitches on the show came from people who are from non-metros and Tier 1 towns of India, with 22 per cent pitchers being under-25. A majority of the contestants were not from elite institutes and only seven per cent were from institutes such as the IIT or IIM
