In simple words, it is a cut and service company. Dhruv gave an excellent explanation to which Peyush felt like Dhruv should be the CEO of the company. Anupam made his decision and said that it was difficult to make it a business and went out. Vineeta said that she was interested in the business but a few of their claims were pointless and gave an offer of 50 lakhs for 10% equity but she said that she knew other sharks would jump into it. So, she gave an offer of 50 lakhs for 8% equity.
Ashneer said that it was not a business model and they should close this thing and went out. Peyush asked about the shareholdings amount to which there were huge ups and downs and Peyush went out for the same reason, whereas Vineeta remained with the same offer.
