I don't have the stats on what percentage of Indian start-ups are cloning and cloning is not inherently a bad idea. But the startups that I do see cloning are not even doing it right. either the product sucks or execution does. take snackible for example. everyone knows it's a copy of America's famous brand lunchables which are famous for their treats in a lunchbox style packaging. Most products of lunchables taste great and while snackible did manage to copy their packaging entirely the product itself is so gross that even my dog refused to eat it. No one would buy it a second time. That's the problem with such startups much like bollywood remakes of Hollywood films they put all their hopes in the fact that their products or service is based on a hit American product or service and invest little in innovation.
