With each episode, the pitches are getting interesting, the discussions heated and the investments bigger. Recapping Episode 5 of Shark Tank India Season 4<\/strong><\/a> is fun because you are in for a treat. Apart from veterans like Vineeta Singh, co-founder of Sugar Cosmetics, Aman Gupta, co-founder, Boat and the not-so-new Shark Kunal Bahl<\/strong><\/a>, co-founder of Snapdeal<\/strong><\/a> and Titan Capital<\/strong><\/a>, the panel also saw the humble Azhar Iquabal, co-founder and CEO of InShorts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From solving everyman\u2019s problem today i.e. stress with an easy wearable to going on a food hunt across India, the latest episode of Shark Tank India saw very diverse pitches that you cannot miss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right from \u201cghar ki ladai ke baad\u201d ka stress to \u201coffice se ghar aake boss ki daant ka\u201d stress, InnerGize<\/a><\/strong> seems to solve them all. Their co-founders, Mitansh Khurana, Shalmali Kadu & Siddhant Bhargava are on this quest to fix one of the most concern for today, i.e. stress with their mental health wearable. For this simple device that Aman rebranded as \u201cmedical champi\u201d that can be worn behind the ear, their ask was for Rs.54 lakhs for 1.5% equity. While the concept and the device intrigued the judges, the demo was quite enjoyable Kunal asked the participant wearing the device, \u201cKya bribe di tumhein yahan bithane ki?\u201d and he plays along by responding, \u201cMaine kal raat ko bola stress ho raha hai, party karne chalte hain. Yahan bitha diya\u201d. The tumultuous  journey of the co-founders especially the cancer-surviving Dr Siddhant really inspired the sharks and Kunal even told Siddhant that, \u201cTumpe bhagwan ka haath hai\u201d. After garnering so much attention, did they manage to get a deal from any Shark?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What followed was more like an \u201canti-pitch\u201d when the sibling duo from Panipat, Aditi and Ashish Jawa entered the room. Claiming their lifestyle skincare business, Personal Touch Skincare<\/a><\/strong>, to be an  \u201cordinary\u201d one like any other skincare brand, they went to underplay their USPs, sales and numbers. This captured the judges\u2019 attention immediately and they were interested to know more. They finally pitched their ask by saying, \u201cIsliye keh rahe hain mat karo invest par agar phir bhi karna chahte ho\u201d, our ask is Rs.1.2 Cr. for 1% equity. Lots of stories later, Aman stepped in to say, \u201cAb bata de shaadi huyi ya nahi?\u201d. Sharks like Vineeta raised questions about their numbers and the maths not adding up. However, Azhar continued to show keen interest in the details of the business. But did he seal a deal with the \u201cnot so ordinary\u201d business in the end? We guess you\u2019ll have to watch the episode to find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, the vision for the last pitch of the episode was deeply rooted in the India. Farmpreneurs Nupur Agarwal and Abhinav Ahluwalia started KIWI- Kisan<\/a><\/strong> Window as an initiative to make the rich organic produce from different parts of the country accessible to more people in India while sitting in the comfort of their home. Aiming to become the Trader Joes of India, a leading food retailer in the US, they asked for Rs.50 lakhs for 1% equity. While it seemed a little \u201criksy\u201d business for Aman, after several rounds of negotiations, Kunal seemed to be quite interested in the concept. Also, he said that he has knowledge in this sector to which Aman remarked, \u201cPata hai, dikh raha hai\u201d. Will any of the Sharks become a customer of KIWI soon? We\u2019re yet to find out in the episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amidst all the inspiring pitches and stories, there was one story that really stuck with us. In a segment of the show called \u201cAsk the Shark\u201d, a viewer had sent a question for Kunal wherein he was asked to share a challenging time while he was building Snapdeal. He narrated the incident of 2008 when there was only Rs.50,000 left in the company account and Rohit Bansal<\/strong><\/a>, his co-founder and Kunal had a total of Rs.5 lakhs in their own bank accounts. Now, it was upon them to either shut down the business or put in their last savings to keep it running for a month. They decided to take that risk and pick the latter option. With a mere net worth of Rs.26,000, Kunal and Rohit sustained Snapdeal as they received a new customer who decided to invest in their company and save the ship from sinking. Kunal ends it by saying the idea is to keep at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
