In this podcast episode, Amit Somani speaks to Gaurav Aggarwal the incredible Founder & CEO at Savaari Car Rentals who inspiringly led his company to be acquired by MakeMyTrip in 2023/2024.
Savaari is India's largest premier chauffeur driven inter-city car rental service with presence in 2000+ Indian cities.
Gaurav is a resilient, poster boy of Indian Startup M&A success story. He has silently built a ~₹100 Crore ARR startup by just raising 2 rounds of funding in a crowded space amidst the storms of global competition (with billions of dollars).
This strategic Merger & Acquisition (M&A) with MakeMyTrip is a trendsetter and exemplar for all founders in the Indian startup ecosystem and VCs alike.
He signs off saying, Savaari Car Rentals will be a ~₹1000 Crore company in 5 years!
Watch this episode to learn key snippets on building an enduring startup the right way in a very difficult unorganised, crowded market!
