CEO's kids pet projects do nothing

Writing on behalf of my friend who was associated with this company

The actor Sonam Kapoor is married into a billionaire family. The husband runs an "ultra premium" clothing brand for elite, which just burns cash since launch but continues to exist. The parent company funds this brand for it's lavish existence.

Though apparently, It is the best team one can be assigned. Too many meetings with celebs rather than actual work, top glamour events to attend, internal or client parties every other day, coolest co workers (all young group)

P.S. Outsiders call it Bahane se chal raha brand (iykyk πŸ˜‚)

There will be some loopholes to show the loss and save tax πŸ’πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

The only benefit for a loss making business purely for tax purpose is if you show fake payments and move the money into other companies you control.

Otherwise if you lose money on a business which is legitimate, you are eligible to get a tax benefit. There is nothing wrong if its the latter and is just smart tax planning.

Salaried folks like ourselves have forged rent agreements and receipts for years. So I would not be too quick to assume.

This is really an interesting take, the overall profit will be reduced and hence less tax. While the CEO family gets richer

I think vegnonveg is separate from Bhane. Offices in different cities, Parent company is in NCR itself

VNV is a different brand but same person owns this. This post is about the 1st one. Though the clothes are nice, they're expensive.

Such a shame to hear this. In a scenario where people in India would do anything for employment....
People will the right resources are exploiting their position.

Hear this. My firm had an entire event based on a new buzz topic (hint hint - it's Sam Altman related) because the CEO's betta was doing some final year projects and he wanted some ideas and he was sitting in the front row of the hall with every other top executive of the firm. This is the norm everywhere. Money can get you things and into places most people can't

Later the whole event was nothing more than a waste of time coz the prizes was merely a pat on the back.

Burning cash since existence. What has the Indian startup ecosystem been doing? FCF is a term that doesn't even exist at scale in our ecosystem.
