There is a glass ceiling for the Indian startups. If I want to meet the PM, it won't be as easy as a foreign guy coming to India. I understand that dynamic, and we need to make sure government sees us as major contributors to society, which is not full there.

Entrepreneurs are not driven by fear; they are driven by the idea to create impact.

I fully agree with innovation and letting the best product win.

Instead of letting the driver-base grow organically , we are setting up driver-training schools across different districts in the country.

Raising capital is not the toughest part. The toughest part is building a great team and making sure it's growing with the company.

Don't take shortcuts while building your company - keep trying for the best.

Our ambition is to build a globally competitive and futuristic transportation system in India that will support and accelerate a nation on the move.

We are building towards the future where people need not own their own cars.

I don't think of competition as much as journalists think I do. Our strategy has been very different from Uber. We are very focused on building as per the Indian dynamics.

Global companies can raise capital much easier than local Indian companies can because they have access to many more markets than we do, and this ends up distorting competition.

Location-based services are here to stay, as it focuses on high relevance and contextual offering to the end user. This means a user sees what he needs with immediate sense and meaning to him.

In the U.S. or in the West, mobility means owning your own car. Cities are designed around spread-out suburbs, societal customs are that kids get a car after a certain age, and car ownership is very high.
