Debt isn’t bad; mismanaged debt is. A well-used credit card can build your wealth. Pay on time, enjoy rewards, and watch your credit soar. - Hawk.

Same applies to startup funding as well. As a VC, I’ve run into a lot of cases where it’s perfectly viable for a startup to leverage debt instead of selling equity. This is especially true in manufacturing based startups. However, there’s also a dearth of venture debt funds in India. Hope that improves.
