Sachin and Binny Bansal arenโt the Cinderella story theyโre sold asโtheyโre IIT Delhi grads, ex-Amazon engineers, and textbook products of Indiaโs most elite system. They didnโt hack Flipkart into existence in a dingy cyber cafรฉโthey started with global experience, tech skills, English fluency, and enough privilege to quit steady jobs without fearing where the next meal would come from. Flipkart wasnโt a garage startupโit was a VC darling from day one, raised on Tiger Global money, and grew by blitzscaling, not brilliance. Their โbuild in India, exit to Walmartโ arc wasnโt disruptionโit was distribution to the highest bidder. Meanwhile, Flipkart bled cash, underpaid delivery workers, and crushed small sellers with zero remorse.

Their success wasnโt rebellionโit was privilege in a hoodie.
