Here’s an amazing fact - almost 10 to 12% of India’s GDP is spent on Logistics. That is more than the share of the software industry or the automotive industry! The reason why this is so big is not just because of India’s vast size, but also because of inefficiencies in logistics at every step of the process. And while the government has made life easier after GST implementation, challenges remain. One of the largest startups in this space is Shiprocket - which helps e-commerce companies to ship goods more efficiently to consumers, and now also offers a whole range of products and services to the retail and ecommerce sector. Akshay Ghulati leads their international shipping platform, and in this freewheeling conversation, he speaks about Shiprocket’s amazing journey. He talks about Shiprocket's beginnings, aiming to make online selling easier for small businesses, building something similar to a "Shopify for India," and their efforts to tackle unique challenges in the country. 🎧 Listen at: podm.in/shiprocket ▶️ Watch the full episode at: https://lnkd.in/dUJGeYNG Entrepreneur India, Inc42 Media, YourStory Media #Shiprocket #Logistics #Ecommerce #IndianStartups #FounderThesis

Perfectionism is Procrastination??!! ⏰⏲️⏱️ Striving for perfection often leads to endless tweaks and delays. Remember, done is better than perfect. Take action, learn, and improve along the way. I recall the story of how Flipkart started in a small apartment in Bengaluru. The founders, Binny Bansal and Sachin Bansal, could have waited for perfect conditions. Instead, they launched with a simple website, learned from their early challenges, and grew it into one of India's biggest e-commerce platforms. #ProgressOverPerfection #TakeAction #GetThingsDone #GrowthMindset #Flipkart #Entrepreneurship #ProductivityHacks

As an entrepreneur, it's easy to fall into the trap of thinking you need to do everything yourself. After all, it's your vision, your passion project. But the truth is, even the most brilliant minds and capable hands have their limits. 一 You can't be an expert at everything. 🧠 一 Spreading yourself too thin means sacrificing quality and focus. 📉 一 The entrepreneurial journey is a marathon, not a sprint. 🏃♂️ Successful partnerships are built on the understanding that together, you're stronger. Some of India's most successful companies were founded on strong partnerships: ➡️ Flipkart: Sachin and Binny Bansal, brothers with a shared dream, revolutionized e-commerce in India. ➡️ Zomato: Deepinder Goyal and Pankaj Chaddah teamed up to change the way we order food. ➡️ Zepto: Aadit Palicha and Kaivalya Vohra partnered to create a game-changing quick commerce service. So, the next time you're feeling overwhelmed or stuck, remember: It's okay to ask for help. Find the right partners who share your vision and values. Build a strong team and watch your business thrive! 🤝 After all, it takes a village to build a successful business! 🏘️ #entrepreneurship #partnerships #collaboration #success #india #business

The question isn’t if commerce will get quicker, it’s how quickly we can make it happen. With a population of 1.4 billion and a workforce that’s virtually limitless, the potential is unmatched.
