CEO of Oreos: If you're not eating at least 250 Oreos, something is wrong

If you take money out of a business as dividends, the effective tax rate is 52% (25% corporate tax + 35.5% on personal income). Through capital gains, it's just 14.95% (with cess). Why does this matter? Here’s what you should know if you invest in IPOs. If you're an investor (especially a VC), the math is simple: reduce corporate tax by showing minimal profits or losses. Spend (Burn) on acquiring users, build a growth narrative, and then sell shares at a higher valuation while paying much lower tax. This spending also makes it harder for competitors to survive. To be clear, we're not discussing R&D spending here, which, incidentally, is very low in India (0.7% of GDP). What's often overlooked is that VCs are essentially playing a tax arbitrage game. Look at most VC-backed businesses listed in the last few years, the reason they show little or no profit is partly due to this. Once you run a business this way, it's extremely difficult to switch. Every startup that's 7-8 years old from the time of raising the first round faces constant pressure from VCs for an exit. With almost no M&A opportunities in India, IPO is often the only way out. The government probably designed this tax arbitrage to incentivize companies to spend money and not just accumulate and distribute. But I'm unsure if the balance is correct. I think it's also creating businesses that aren't very resilient. One prolonged market downturn, and many of these unprofitable companies would struggle to survive. Two things that make this more interesting: Unprofitable growth gets valued at much higher multiples than steady profits. A company doing ₹100 cr revenue with 100% growth might get 10-15x, while a profitable one with 20% growth gets 3-5x. So VCs aren't just saving on tax; they're in essence creating a 3x higher exit valuation. If you're competing against someone burning cash, you almost have to match it to defend market share, even if you don't want to, because of the quirks I mentioned above.

@gautamps25 Never read reviews/ ratings before watching, for movies where you’ve made up your mind.

Already booked for Joker 2 tomorrow and hearing its pretty bad, fml 🤦

@ravihanda Lol…massive data bias as they started their operation during a bull run..hard to judge how their performance will be over 10 years

Ads like these has my dad questioning me - How much are we getting? When I say around 20% He says - only. The only response I have left is - Daddy we have enough.

@RaoSumukh Apps need to make money to survive 😬…if the milkman is regular to the society, you can ask the guard in the morning to approve him on your behalf.

Mygate has moved an extremely basic feature of pre-approving a delivery frequently to its Premium plan. Thanks to this, I now get a loud approval prompt from Bigbasket at 4:30AM every single day for milk delivery. I need to pay them to not wake me up. What a joke.

@AmazingCreditC Great way to garner interest, but question is it really worth it? It's just a way to consolidate all your account, which after seeding of PAN card everywhere, is being done by lots of account aggregators already, so don't see point of having another service just for that!

Brilliant! 🫡

@gregisenberg When your product/data is that good, people seldom care about ui, ex: ChatGpt

Does anyone know why?

@srijanshetty Its similar to searching for microcap investments

In the past two startups I've spent 20-30% of my time constantly speaking to 'interesting' engineers who we could hire. And sadly, only a few of them treated their job called their job fun or something that sparked joy. While my first working theory was that we don't have the same level of talent as other Tech Hubs, but I was mistaken. The common adage that we don't have great 'engineers' or software developers is wrong. We have brilliant engineers in the ecosystem but the good ones are probably at the MAANGs, Creds and PhonePes; they self select out of the interview process that other startups or companies are trying to dance in. The crem de la crem don't interview, they whisper and a butterfly flaps its wings and a red carpet opens up for them at the next big startup or they start themselves. How do you find someone who doesn't want to be found or doesn't appear in the forums you search in? So what you want are diamonds no one know about, the people who treat their job as a craft and they you give them a platform to excel and they will show you their true talents :)

@girdharspeaks @foodpharmer2 The entire issue is capitalism has a natural tendency to corrupt. Once money gets involved, the entire objective function changes drastically.

Would you pay extra for grocery items approved by @foodpharmer2 ? Health influencers like Food Pharmer and many others have been making a positive impact on our lives through their content by making us realize that the ingredients used matter more than the brand. 1/3

@thekaipullai Also Dune

Me and my wife watched Kalki 2898 AD Yesterday. She asked me what did you understand from the movie? I told her, I understood that the director has watched Mad Max Fury road, Black Panther, Iron Man, Dark Knight rises and Star Wars. Other than that, I had no idea.

@atyagi_94 You still using Ola?🫣

@bitspleaz This guy literally turned Ola app as a desperate(?) front for selling their scooters. Very weird. Why would you ruin someone’s cab booking experience with an ad for a bike? When Im booking a cab Im not thinking of buying a escooter.

Next: waiting for Byju Ravichandran to give advice on how to run a business profitably.
