</figure></div><div>This surge in air travel has also been accompanied by a significant increase in demand for private jets. JetSetGo, a prominent player in the private aviation sector, has experienced a staggering 900% increase in bookings in recent weeks. Interestingly, the majority of this demand, approximately 70% to 80%, is coming from the upper middle class, as opposed to the ultra high net worth customers who typically make up the bulk of their clientele.<br><br></div><div><br>As of April 2022, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) reports that there are 95 non-scheduled operator permit holders in India, collectively owning a fleet of 330 charter aircraft. The cost of chartering a private jet varies depending on the route and duration of the trip. For instance, a round trip from Delhi to Goa and back, or from Mumbai to Delhi and back, can set passengers back anywhere between Rs 18-25 lakh and Rs 17-24 lakh, respectively. International charters, such as a same-day round trip from Delhi to Dubai or Mumbai to Male, can cost between Rs 35-50 lakh and Rs 38-54 lakh, respectively.<br><br></div><div><br>The rapid growth of India's domestic air travel market, coupled with the rising demand for private jets, highlights the country's burgeoning middle and upper-middle classes. As more Indians gain access to disposable income and seek out luxury experiences, the private aviation sector is poised to continue its upward trajectory. This trend not only reflects the increasing affluence of the Indian population but also underscores the potential for further expansion and investment in the country's aviation industry.<br><br></div><div><br>Some of the most well-known private jet owners in India include Mukesh Ambani, Ratan Tata, Vijay Mallya, and Lakshmi Mittal. Mukesh Ambani owns a custom-built Boeing Business Jet 2 (BBJ2) worth an estimated $73 million, Ratan Tata owns a Dassault Falcon 2000 valued at around $30 million, Vijay Mallya owns a Gulfstream G550 with a price tag of approximately $61 million, and Lakshmi Mittal also owns a Gulfstream G550.<br><br></div><div><br>Other Indian business magnates and celebrities known to own private jets include Anil Ambani, Gautam Adani, and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who reportedly owns a Bombardier Global 5000. The rise in private jet ownership in India can be attributed to several factors, including the country's growing economy, an increase in the number of high-net-worth individuals, and the desire for greater convenience and flexibility in travel.<br><br></div><div><br>In conclusion, the world of private jet ownership in India is a fascinating and rapidly growing one, with an increasing number of the country's elite choosing to invest in these luxurious and efficient aircraft. As India's economy continues to expand and its wealthy population grows, it is likely that the demand for private aviation will only continue to soar.<br><br></div><div><br><br></div><div>B Hari<br><br><em>Simplicity with substance</em><br><a href="http://www.bhari.com">www.bhari.com</a></div>

<div><br>May Day, also known as International Workers' Day or Labour Day, is a globally recognized holiday celebrated on May 1st every year in many countries. The day serves as a tribute to the hardworking individuals who form the backbone of our society, and to acknowledge their achievements and contributions to society. It is a day to promote worker's rights and social justice, and to advocate for the betterment of the working class.<br><br></div><div><br>The origins of May Day can be traced back to the late 19th century labor movement, when workers in the United States and Europe fought for better working conditions, including an eight-hour workday. In the United States, a general strike was organized in 1886, demanding the same, culminating in a peaceful rally in Chicago's Haymarket Square. Unfortunately, the event turned violent when a bomb was thrown at police officers, killing several people. This tragic event led to the trial and execution of several labor activists, known as the Haymarket Affair.<br><br></div><div> <figure class="attachment attachment--preview attachment--lightboxable attachment--png">

<div>When I first met the Purplle.com founders some 6 years ago , I was wondering how these techies would make an impact in the makeup industry . IvyCap ventures , a private Equity fund founded by Vikram Gupta was an early investor in Purplle.com. I continue as a Board adviser in the fund since inception and over the last 6 years have witnessed how Manish and Rahul , founders of the company have worked with lots of conviction on their digital strategy . They have built a number of homegrown brands while selling top beauty brands through their web site. They have made cosmetics and beauty products available to an entirely under serviced customer segment in the tier II and tier III cities of India other than the major metros.<br><br></div><blockquote><em>Today Purplle.com has over six million users and three million monthly active visitors. It has over 700 brands with nearly 50,000 products available online.</em></blockquote><div><br>For IvyCap it was a great investment from our first fund . We invested about $ 2 million in 2015 and this week we exited our entire shareholding of the first fund with a 22x return. In fact our whole fund and more has got returned just with this one investment . <br><br>There is no doubt that the founders played a stellar role in growing the company . There are many others from IvyCap and outside who have significantly contributed in guiding the founders and the company over the last few years. with a war chest of over $70 million , the company is doing well in growing their business and is likely to become another Indian unicorn in the near future.<br><br>Thanks and have a nice day.<br><br>Hari<br> <figure class="attachment attachment--preview attachment--lightboxable attachment--png">

<div>It feels great when as a lead investor in a syndicate , you are able to present an offer to your co investors for a potential exit . Today , a Zoom call was organised for me to share the offer of a potential exit for one of my portfolio companies with my co-investors.

It is not meditation , but a technique which can make the mind quiescent and discover one's true nature which is beyond body and mind. <br><br>Science has always hit a boundary , when it comes to spirituality. Evidence for any thing beyond space and time is a challenge which scientists and researchers have not been able to crack so far .<br><br>We have witnessed several human beings who have been able to live a life beyond space and time as the oneness . Buddha & Christ are well known examples , but there are several people who have lived a life beyond space and time who are not as well known as Buddha or Christ.<br><br>When I downloaded the <a href="https://www.joinclubhouse.com/@bhari">clubhouse app </a> , I was overwhelmed with the amount of conversations that were happening in the clubhouse universe. It is truly disruptive and it is continuously expanding. The total amount of words spoken every second is growing exponentially and does not show signs of flattening as more and more IOS users join the clubhouse community.<br><br>I chose to create a space of SILENCE in the clubhouse . I created a club called "WHO AM I ? ", where I sit in silence for 10 minutes twice a day . Sitting is silence for 10 minutes appears to be a simple but boring task in a community which is thriving with conversations of entrepreneurs , creators , achievers , millionaires and others. <br><br>Many people enter the room and run away in seconds , since they find it very uncomfortable where all that is present is you and silence. They are many who sit through 10 minutes and share their experience with others in the room.<br><br> <figure class="attachment attachment--preview attachment--lightboxable attachment--jpg">

<div>Exits are milestone events for investors in startups. Liquidity events are not something which are frequent nor can be predicted in the startup world. For a lead investor in any Angel group , it is a matter of great joy to share the news of an exit offer with investors who co-invested .<br><br>As a lead investor , I have had the opportunity several times to provide exits to investors in deals that I have led . I shared one such offer today with my investor group. The news was received positively , but investors were divided - Full Exit , Part Exit , No Exit . A date and time to discuss and arrive at a decision now needs to be finalised .<br><br>Matured investor groups just follow the decision of the leads, since the leads have a slightly better understanding of the ground reality. However , it becomes extremely complex when the offer is for a full exit at a price which is at a deep discount to the current valuation. Normally leads run a process to understand what the majority of the investor group wants in such situation.<br><br>In another instance , the founder had made a special request to me that he wanted our entire investor group to exit since he found it difficult to handle the investment team and their high handedness in providing documentation support to the company. Knowing fully well that we will be missing out on another surge in valuation , I did convince my investor group to fully exit from the startup . The startup is doing extremely well and its valuation has surged several times and they have done another two rounds since our exit. <br><br>In another instance , an exit offer was received when the startup raised their Series A , some of the investors in the Angel round did not exit and some did part exit . The startup ultimately failed and most investors who did not exit regretted their decision. <br><br>The lead investor's role is quite challenging . One needs to navigate very challenging situations with founders , co-investors and other supporting teams. Your performance is as good as the last deal where you provided a good exit. <br><br>Take care.<br><br>Hari<br> <figure class="attachment attachment--preview attachment--lightboxable attachment--jpg">

<div>The CII ( Confederation of Indian Industry) had organised an Angel Investment Masterclass for corporate executives and businessmen today. I was invited to join the panel as a speaker in this virtual workshop. While talking with fellow panelists , I realised that the startup funding landscape in India needs a disruptive model if we need to make adequate risk capital available to entrepreneurs .<br><br>For a country of 1.4 billion people , India has only about 10,000 angel and seed investors. With 40,000 startups registered with the government and newer startups getting established everyday , a great opportunity awaits Fintech entrepreneurs who can find a way to create a new asset class which can be positioned at individuals who are interested in making small ticket investments in this asset class.<br><br>Mutual funds industry has made great progress over the last few years and despite chit fund scams the mutual fund industry has managed to grow their AUM ( Assets under management) and their investor base. Keeping this is mind , we must find ways for creating a Systematic Investment Program for small investors in a new instrument for Angel Investing , the corpus of which will back startups and seed stage companies . The entire scheme should be able to provide liquidity as well to investors and the product idea appears to be desirable , feasible and viable.<br><br>The same model could be extended for investment by students in student and other startups. The large base of youth must be empowered to invest in this asset class. The pooled money could be deployed where student startups can get priority for investments.<br><br><br><br> <figure class="attachment attachment--preview attachment--lightboxable attachment--jpg">

</figure><br><br><br>The Indian startup eco system is making rapid progress and is maturing by the day. We now have 50+ unicorns and another 50 in the making . If we need to make rapid strides in creating a robust infrastructure for innovation and global leadership , it is important that we create an eco system that would ensure adequate and faster access to risk capital. <br><br></div><blockquote><em>It is also important to provide an equal opportunity to small investors who are completely unaware of this asset class which can provide much better returns to investors in comparison to other conventional investment products.</em></blockquote><div><br>With blockchain and crypto currency getting more traction and usage , there cannot be a better time than now to open up investments in this asset class ( Seed & Angel Investments) to small investors.<br><br>I have always maintained that the small investor in the Indian Stock Markets is the most risk taking venture capitalist . It is time to give them the freedom to take risks in this asset class. I think the number of angel investors could go easily to a million people in the next 3-5 years , if we can create the right products. The total corpus available for investment in startups could go well over $5 billion in the next 3-5 years from an absolutely new and untapped source. Hope to see this transformation soon.<br><br>Have a nice day.<br><br></div><div>B Hari<br><br><em>Simplicity with substance</em><br><a href="http://www.bhari.com">www.bhari.com</a></div>

<div>During the recently concluded Startup Uttarakhand event , I was invited to be in a panel of judges to evaluate startups from the state.<br><br>One of the startups that caught my interest was a company which was producing and selling cat toys called <a href="http://www.hriku.com">hriku.com</a> . The company started by two cat lovers was growing catnip ( a herb ) in the Himalayas and making catnip stuffed toys for cats. I ordered a toy from Amazon while I was talking to the team in the evaluation session.<br><br>Subsequently I had a call with the team for an assessment today . Richa Pant and Nishant Ojha the founders are cat lovers and neighbours in Dehradun. They are getting early traction from cat parents and the opportunity is to build a D2C brand for the global market.<br><br>I had ordered a toy for Bageera , who recently joined our family. He was an abandoned kitten in Mumbai who was brought up by Aditya and is now part of our household since Aditya has come back from Mumbai.<br><br>Bageera showed good interest and energy when the toy was given , but subsequently he did not show much interest. Though I have zero knowledge about cats and pets in general , I could get a sense that the market for catnip toys could be pretty big globally.<br> <figure class="attachment attachment--preview attachment--lightboxable attachment--png">

<div>When in school we were taught that 1/0 is infinity. During my younger days , I always thought of INFINITY as a concept in mathematics. <br><br>As life progressed and went into several twists and turns , I read and heard from several spiritual books , teachers and gurus about the "infinite" which has no beginning nor end , which is timeless and unborn , which many people also call as GOD. <br><br>As I discovered the path of non duality /Advaita , the quest for the SELF started and I now know conceptually that where there is the INFINITE , nothing can exist separately . Anything added or removed from infinity does not change the infinite nor does it have any impact on the characteristic or nature of the infinite . This line of thinking is a no brainer to the logical mind . If you take out a drop of water from the ocean it does not change anything. In a similar logic , if you pour a cup of water in the ocean , it loses its identity instantly and there is no way it can stand out separately.<br><br>Are we not drops of water in the ocean of life ? Do we need to think and behave as if we are separate from this ocean of life ? Advaita says that WE ARE THE SELF , the one and only SELF. It does not PREACH anything , nor asks you to believe anything blindly . It asks you to question , investigate and find out for yourselves . Mere understanding is no good . You have to be it - thus speak the sages. If you can be it - you are THAT ,the infinite which cannot be expressed in words. The veil of ignorance once removed , true knowledge shines instantaneously since you are always that .<br><br>" Who Am I ? " is the most definitive question that one can ask . When this question is answered , the realised ones say that the questioner disappears and all that remains is silence , which does not have any beginning nor end which is also called the SELF , the INFINITE , GOD or any name that you would like to call IT . <br><br>Does "Time " have any separate identity ? Is it another dimension of the infinite ? Logically , Infinity has to be dimensionless and hence time cannot exist independently . The past , present and future are all contained in the infinite . The only time that can be is the NOW . In fact NOW is not TIME . NOW never changes. Everything is in the NOW. The infinite does not change , so why should we bother about all that changes ? They are only illusions of the mind . This reminds one of the the great sage Bhagawan Ramana Maharshi who said ' The "I"removes the " I " yet remains the "I" .''<br><br>Is infinity real ? <br><br>Plan to explore this further .<br><br>Take care.<br><br>In loving service,<br><br>Hari<br><br><em>Simplicity with substance</em><br><a href="http://www.bhari.com">www.bhari.com</a></div>

<div>I tool a flight to Coimbatore from Kolkata yesterday . This travel is after a year. Covid had completely grounded most people and I had avoided any type of travel and had no inclination to travel since the lockdown was announced in March 2021. <em>Had a board meeting from morning and it was pretty refreshing to hear from our Fund Managers that they have negotiated an exit for one of our portfolio company which will return the full capital and more to the investors and that the deal will get executed by March 2021. <br></em><br><br>I was very nervous about my travel. I received some Whatsapp messages that <strong>Red Alert</strong> was announced in Coimbatore just a day ago and all passengers were supposed to get a COVID test done before 72 hours of travel.<br><br>While checking in , I asked the travel desk if I needed to do any formalities before the flight. They said that I would be tested when I land in Coimbatore and all my details have been forwarded to the government agency .<br><br>The flight was full and I was feeling claustrophobic. Though I got my first shot of the vaccine early this month, I was warned that people who have taken both shots had also contracted COVID in some cases. As soon as I settled in my seat, I opened my iPad and started watching a movie that I downloaded just before I left home for the Airport.<br><br></div><blockquote><pre>The flight took 2 hours and 45 minutes . I just had a coffee on board and waited for the flight to land. Nervous about what would happen in the next few minutes , I entered the baggage collection area and was scanning to see where the testing centre was . After I collected my baggage , I started walking towards the exit , where I was checked for body temperature. I casually walked away from the exit and I was out in the Taxi bay. I just hailed a taxi and boarded it to my destination. That was it. <em>Smooth and without any hindrance. </em></pre></blockquote><div><em><br>When I landed , I saw that a twitter handle </em><strong><em>Hey World Posts</em></strong><em> has been created for Hey blogs. I think it is pretty cool and gives me an opportunity to write with ease and add pictures or other links. I am sure a few more useful features will get added as we move along .<br><br></em>Thanks and have a nice day<br> <figure class="attachment attachment--preview attachment--lightboxable attachment--jpg">

<div>Having used Notion for a few months now, I can confidently state that it is a very powerful tool for quickly turning any idea to a simple document with quite a lot of intricate use which make it a versatile tool. Recently I had to create a bunch of documents for a whistle blowing activity and I was able to produce a very impressive document with databases , web links, videos and other in a simple one page form. <br><br>I do not think there is anything as versatile as Notion in the market . Not that notion does not have drawbacks. The team is working on solving several well knows issues and features. Overall , it is real value for money for individuals as well as teams.<br><br> <figure class="attachment attachment--preview attachment--lightboxable attachment--png">

<div>The latest update of the clubhouse app allows users to create their own clubs. I was able to create the Who Am I ? Club that I wanted to create when I joined club house. It is a silent space inside club house for self enquiry to start with. As we go along , we will see how things take shape. Now we have three sessions each day of 10 minutes each where the activity is to sit in silence . Post the 10 minutes members can share what they went through if they desire. It is a great way to start your inner journey.<br><br></div><div>A website naanyar.com ( meaning Who Am I ? ) will soon be set up for facilitating other content for people to use and share.

<div>Have created a space in clubhouse , where I invite people to sit for 10 minutes in silence. The timing is 6.00 am and 6.00 pm Indian Standard Time every day. Since people in other parts of the world, find it inconvenient , another session each day at 6.00 am Eastern has started from yesterday.<br><br>I now intend to create a Notion template for people to do a quick capture of their 10 minutes each day. Also looking at Roam Research for capturing the daily journal.<br><br></div><div>B Hari<br><br><em>Simplicity with substance</em><br><a href="http://www.bhari.com">www.bhari.com</a></div>
