Absolutely agree with Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal Indian startups often focus on solving problems for the wealthy, ignoring the real needs of the common people. There's a serious lack of tech enthusiasm, founders treat tech as a funding tool rather than a driver of innovation. Unlike the West, where passion fuels deep-tech and future-focused solutions, many Indian startups simply replicate Western models instead of building for India’s unique challenges. There's a tendency to clone successful Western or Chinese models—Uber for X, Airbnb for Y, instead of deep, first-principle thinking. This slows real innovation. The ecosystem leans toward safe bets, and investors rarely back bold, Bharat-centric ideas. Systemic issues like weak infrastructure and regulatory hurdles add to the problem. I do hope that change will be emerging-startups, Ather, DeHaat, and AgniKul are tackling real problems with purpose. India needs a startup mindset shift - solve for Bharat, not just for Bangalore.

Visited Startup Mahakumbh recently and had an eye-opening moment. While listening to discussions about Indian startups like Zomato, one point really struck me, are we just creating low-salaried jobs instead of building real tech? Piyush made a valid

It feels like a lot of Indian startups are just repackaged versions of Silicon Valley ideas — Uber for X, Airbnb for Y, Amazon for Z. But India has completely different cultural, economic, and infrastructural realities. Do we need to stop blindly fo

Where do you think there's GAP in AI. there's new models launching every week and old models are out of style. and there's memory, MCP, api, agent and what not. Where do you see a Gap to be bridged?
