Rainmatter started in 2016, with a few of us doubling up on our day jobs and trying to help startups that were trying to expand India’s capital markets ecosystem. Nine years later, it has grown into something far bigger than we ever imagined. So far, we’ve invested over ₹1,500 crore across 160+ startups spanning fintech, climate, health, media, and deep tech. We’ve also earmarked 10% of everything Zerodha earns to invest in startups, and another 10% for the social sector through the @RainmatterOrg. The thesis has evolved from just expanding the capital markets, but the thread running through it is simple. As a country, we need to own more of what we consume. Sovereignty, in the truest sense. We’re not a typical VC. We don’t take board seats, and we’re not in this for quick exits. We’re not interested in forcing founders into short-term decisions just so we can make money in five or six years. The simple reality is that building a good business is hard. Building one that is genuinely useful, scalable, and profitable is even harder when investors are pushing you to speedrun success and sustainability. That kind of pressure usually leads to shortcuts. And shortcuts, more often than not, come at the consumer’s expense. So our approach has been simple: be patient, back founders for the long term, and help them build the business the right way. That, more than anything else, is the heart of @Rainmatterin.

Jai ho!

The skill nobody teaches: HOW TO BE WRONG WELL. Admit it fast. Correct it immediately. Learn from it completely. Most people defend wrong positions until they’re indefensible. Being wrong isn’t the problem. Staying wrong is. Update your beliefs or become irrelevant.

This is massive technology advancement

@reliancejio @JioCare If you could kindly solve and respond...

Hi @reliancejio @JioCare, I’m extremely disappointed with my experience at the Sahara Mall store. I requested a port-in, but the staff fraudulently issued me a new number instead. When I complained, they were dismissive. I now have a SIM I never asked for. Please resolve this immediately.

India isn’t dirty because people can’t clean, or lack civic sense. India is dirty because people genuinely believe it’s not their job. That belief comes from caste. And that belief is not accidental. It comes straight from caste conditioning drilled into people for generations. Caste in India was never just about hierarchy. It was about assigning work. And cleaning got pushed to the bottom. So now even today, people carry that same mindset without even realizing it. I am not the one who cleans. You go to a park, people will eat, throw garbage, walk away. Not because they’re unaware. Their brain literally doesn’t even register that they should pick it up. Why. Because somewhere deep inside, they think cleaning is a ‘lower’ person’s job. Same everywhere - Hill stations, rivers, tourist spots. Trash it and leave. Not laziness. Conditioning. Compare this with somewhere like Singapore - You eat at a place, people clean their own table. They carry tissues, wipe it, and throw garbage properly. Why? Because they don’t think it’s someone else’s job. Even Sri Lanka feels cleaner than India! And then we pretend it’s a Swachh Bharat problem. You can run a hundred Swachh Bharat campaigns. Put dustbins every ten steps. Nothing changes. Because the problem is not infrastructure. It’s identity.
