CarTrade Tech revenue soars to Rs 193 crores and PAT zooms to Rs 46 Crores in Q3 FY25. This shows the power of clear focussed strategy and relentless execution. Scale ( 79 mn MAU's ), revenue growth ( 32 % YOY ) and profitability can go hand in hand. #cartradetech #carwale #olx #shriramautomall #bikelwale

Difference between our smallest client ACV and largest one is 250x. That is the capability growth in past few years at Refrens For pay-as-you-go pricing this is normal but for feature based pricing, this is surprising for me also. The challenge is in growing the team's mindset to sell a 250x product. From few thousand rupees micro saas to few lakhs for mid market systems. Sales people need to go from talking about samosa chutney to cheesecake.

💼 Product Management Across Indian Cities — An Unfiltered Observation 😄 After 10+ years of being a Product Manager across Bangalore, Hyderabad, Gurgaon, and now Mumbai, I’ve realized one thing — the role stays the same, but the vibe doesn’t. Here’s my totally unbiased take 👇 🚀 Bangalore: Everyone’s building a startup — even your Uber driver has an MVP in stealth mode. Meetings start with “Let’s brainstorm” and end with a Figma link. 💻 Hyderabad: Super structured. Jira boards are cleaner than my kitchen. And yes, people actually read PRDs. Absolute legends. 🏢 Gurgaon: Slides > Product. If it’s not in a deck, it doesn’t exist. Also, 90% of “quick syncs” end in buffet lunch plans. 🌊 Mumbai: Hustle + Humidity = true product-market fit test. People ship features faster than the local train schedule. After seeing it all, one truth remains — Good PMs adapt like chameleons. Great PMs laugh while doing it. Now I’m curious — 👉 Which city do you think has the most unique work culture? 👇 Drop your experience (funny ones welcome). Let’s make this a thread worth bookmarking! #ProductManagement #TechCulture #WorkLife #India #PMHumor #Leadership

“EVs? Not for us middle-class people, madam.” That’s what my auto driver told me today, somewhere between small talk and a surprisingly deep chat about the future of mobility in India. (Privileges of being a local in Bengaluru) He spoke about how EV autos give 150 km on a 3-hour charge, cost ₹3–4 lakhs, and glide along quietly, no rumble, no roar. Pretty great, right? And then he gently dismantled the dream. “What if my auto stops in the middle of nowhere? Where do I charge it? I can’t carry a socket in my pocket". Most homes don’t have charging setups. Most streets don’t either. And when you live in a world where your work is your vehicle, uncertainty isn’t a cute inconvenience. It’s a dealbreaker. Then came the clincher: “Battery will die in 3–4 years. A new one costs 1–3 lakhs. That’s like buying a new auto again.” Instead, he vouches for CNG — the infrastructure is there, the math makes sense, and most importantly: it feels safe. And honestly? I get it. Whether it's tech, relationships, or the next life upgrade, people don't fear change — they fear being stranded without a backup plan. We don’t always need the shiniest new solution. We need trust. Accessibility. Emotional safety even in the choices we make about how we move through the world. What do you think will help EVs really land in India, beyond just policy and PR? Curious to know in the comments. ✨ #DatingCoachDiaries #EverydayIndia #EVRealityCheck #EV #electricmobility #EmotionalSafetyIsStrategy #TechWithContext #MiddleClassWisdom
