Dexter Angel’s Weekly Update- 20th March 2023 to 25th March 2023

This week, the Indian political landscape was rocked by the expulsion of opposition leader Rahul Gandhi from parliament after a conviction for defamation. While this news may seem disconnected from the startup world, it highlights the importance of maintaining a transparent and ethical approach in all aspects of business, including the startup ecosystem.

Startups in India have been growing at an unprecedented rate over the past few years, attracting significant amounts of investment from both local and foreign venture capitalists. However, this growth has not been without its challenges, particularly around issues of corporate governance and ethical practices. As the Indian startup ecosystem continues to mature, it is crucial for founders and investors to prioritise transparency and accountability to ensure sustainable and ethical growth.

Against this backdrop, we bring you some of the most exciting news and developments from the world of Indian startups and venture capital. Let's dive in and explore what's been happening over the past week -

Dexter Angel’s Weekly Update- 13th March 2023 to 18th March 2023

Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), a key lender to technology start-ups and a financial pillar of America's innovation economy, has entered a liquidity crisis, sending shockwaves through the start-up ecosystem. SVB Financial Group, based in Santa Clara, California, announced the sale of $21 billion in securities from its portfolio at a loss.

To shore up finances, the Group held a $2.25 billion share sale, which included US Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities. According to analysts, the move was prompted by high deposit outflows at the bank as a result of a broader downturn in the start-up industry, which resulted in a sharper decline in its net interest income.

This incident makes you want to step back and reflect on the ecosystem and the ripple effects on Indian space. Read all about this deliberation here: https://www.thehindu.com/business/Industry/explained-will-the-svb-collapse-impact-indian-start-ups/article66636150.ece

Dexter Angels Weekly Update - 23 January 2023 to 28 January 2023

At least 20 existing unicorns want to come back to India and shift their domicile here, if regulations are eased.

That's what Sameer Nigam, CEO of PhonePe has to say ever since the company decided to shift its domicile to India. In all of this, PhonePe investors had to pay Rs.8,000 crore in taxes. India has often been criticised for policies that make entrepreneurs averse to setting up business in the subcontinent.

Today, the idea of 'AtmaNirbhar Bharat’ is a recurring theme in all sectors and has brought with it a wave of entrepreneurs using this spirit in their startups. The headlines talking about India minting unicorns at near-record pace attest. This point of pride has been wounded due to a portion of startups having flipped away.

Sameer spoke about this and more on Make it (Big) in India! Watch it on Youtube here:

Remember the erstwhile era when you would diligently get your bank passbook updated?
In the early 2000s, this meant taking half-day from work and waiting in a queue in your bank’s branch only to realize that the bank’s printer was out of ink.
Tables turned and in the last decade, banking in India transformed from boring (and often frustrating) to rapid & digital. Now passbooks are a piece of nostalgia & fintech has made banking compete with the gig economy with their quick 10-min loans.
And now we’ve managed to impress the world - quite literally - with the World Bank praising FinMin for our growth in banking.
Leveraging on praise and leaving no stone unturned, today the govt. announced the launch of 75 Digital Banking Units (DBUs). While Fintechs have been at the forefront of global praise, the government has now pushed traditional banks to pace with this digital drive.
Know more about these 75 DBUs that shall soon be of quite some use to you (including getting your (m) passbooks updates) - https://www.livemint.com/.../what-are-digital-banking...
Meanwhile, the startup week has been a mix of funding and (sigh) more layoffs. As you get ready for a busy week ahead, here is a look at all that's been up across the ecosystem
Health is wealth. And this time it’s wealth for FitBud fitness SaaS platform as it raised $3.4 million in a seed round.
https://entrackr.com/.../fitbudd-raises-3-4-mn-from.../...
And Edtech continues to drown with Byju’s yet another round of layoff. This time the number is 2,500 employees.
https://entrackr.com/.../byjus-set-to-lay-off-2500.../
Another addition to the list is FrontRow with a layoff percentage from last week's downsizing as high as 75%. This leaves 40 employees and a troubling time for MasterClass-styled EdTech.
https://entrackr.com/.../exclusive-frontrow-lays-off.../...
Not a layoff but an acquisition at an EdTech this week was with Vedantu’s majority stake in test preparation platform Deeksha for $40 million.
https://entrackr.com/.../vedantu-acquires-majority-stake.../
Meanwhile, the troubles in Gig Economy reached the Court as there were complaints about the steep pricing of Uber & Ola in Bangalore. The courts are now trying to make the govt and ride-hailing platforms reach a “common ground”.
https://entrackr.com/.../high-court-stays-karnataka-uber.../
And lastly leaving you with news of some respite amidst ecosystem dull days - There was cash flowing for investors of co-working space Awfis this week as it's all set to provide cash exit to its existing investors to the tune of $30 million!
https://entrackr.com/.../high-court-stays-karnataka-uber.../
That’s all from the Dexter desk this week with our Weekly Roundup. Here’s to a great Monday ahead for all of you!
