Summarising some basics to the VC world and Startup world here below : Please note, that this is my opinion and view (may or may not be correct), but in the end this ecosystem is about building a perspective and sticking to it. 1. My definition of a startup is a business which can reach 1000 Cr in revenue within a period of 10 years using up to a maximum of 500Cr as capital infused. This 1000 Cr should have a EBITDA pool of about ~50% and should be able to grow at a pace of about 20% annually from the 1000 Cr number over the next 5 years. Typically most of such business are tech enabled. Also the revenue can be higher with a lower EBITDA %ge. But the business has to have a potential to generate 500Cr EBITDA in 10 years with a 20% potential of growth for the next 5 years, post which it can stabilise.

Some basics I think founders should think of before starting a VC fundable business - Why is my business VC fundable? Can I achieve the numbers said above? - Why do I think there is a potential to generate 1000 Cr revenue? How will the breakup look? Will it be many customers paying a small amount or some customers paying a large amount? - Why do I think it is the right time for this disruption? Are there any trends that point to this direction? - Why is my product different from the competition? If it is unique what is the proof that customers want it? - What is my GTM (Go to market) strategy and channel? What are the ways other companies have used them and why will I be able to win in this game? - What skills does my team have and why are we the best ones to build it? - What will the money help me achieve? What are my exit metrics?
