There is lot to learn, I have been a EV user since 2002, done about 2 lakh kms total adding all the cars I have driven on electric. Its a great experience. Thanks Chetan for the Reva, I still own, will switch to Lithium batteries. Thanks Nikhil

Your podcasts are very insightful. I listen to them during my commute and it's become a ritual now. I'm looking forward to the next interesting topic.

She is not doing anything complex. She makes hydrogen and supplied to oil industry. Her entire business is from oil business Ambani refinery, Indianoil, BP, ONGC etc. Hydrogen has no chance against EV. But in the hydrogen supply chain petrol pumps, refinery like Ambani and govt's also get to have a share and make money. In EV, Ambani and govt. refinery oil industry have no money to make. It is as simple as that. The Ather guy debunked her by saying the hydrogen has no efficient mobility usecase and everyone knows that, but the govt is still pushing for hydrogen because the govt's "consultants" are interested in the hydrogen. Why? because with hydrogen cars/ bikes there is money for refineries oil businesses to still make money in future. The consultants are lobbies representing Ambani, IndianOil, BP, HPCL, petrol pumps mafia etc. and they want to push for hydrogen as alternative to EV/ future fuel.

It was really good to see that all these founders are unveiling their business models, secrets, cost structures etc on open platforms, which may increase competition for them. Nikhil is also doing a good job here to not allowing them to evade any question.

Thank u Nikhil kamath for starting this channel.....It helps many business students like me to learn directly from the experts..

1 hour into the podcast, I have a feeling that this is not the content that Nikhil is known for. I can be wrong as it progresses but this is so chaotic with nobody giving beautiful insights that has been the USP of this series.

Suruchi didn't seem to fit the rest of the panel in terms of domain expertise or work done in the space so far. A quick check shows that her company has been funded (series A) by Nikhil's Investing arm. Explains why she got the additional spotlight and multiple Qs to talk about her background, education and story. Well played, Sir!

Hey Nikhil, great podcasts from you and your team. Just a suggestion - can you bring together folks who were doing 9 to 6 rat race and left jobs and started their ventures. Can definitely give a good sense of how they managed coming out of that and making big with all the mindset change...

2:23 thanks Tarun for saving the poor guy from intruding personal questions. You are an empathetic person. We Indians really have to stop our habit of probing people who are introvert or modest or being humble. I used to be like that bluesmart guy, getting more and more awkward with such BS questions...nowadays I just destroy these people by asking ultraprobing extremely personal questions back....such as are you regretting having children or how is your libido after decades of married life etc. etc. The Paradox is, once you achieve the ability to fireback, people realize it and you don't get asked such questions anymore, however much you want that to happen.

With every passing episode, I'm getting more and more curious about the food they eat! They need to be mentioned in the end credits 😂

Great stuff Nikhil! I am inspired by Tarun’s confidence in their scooter and decided to buy an Ather but availability is an issue like 3 months waiting 😅😢

Imagine a commerce student having a pretty mediocre career consuming this episode and that too at once. Kudos to you guys. And specially Nikhil for ensuring it to keep as simple as possible.

Excellent insight from Tarun and Chetan on pros and cons of battery swapping. Although it looks like the more pros for swapping, it is hard to sell it to end consumer. Consumers don't think logically 😂

I want them to bring battery swapping options for EV cars as well. Let Tata Nexon give us a car with 20kwh builtin permanent battery and other 20kwh in at least 4 modules. So in city, I don't need swappable battery. I need them only in highway every 150kms. The way I want it is to add modular small sized batteries which can be handled with some equipment.

I love how Nikhil can asks the hardest questions from the other founders, which you would never see them answering on Moneycontrol or else!

Nikhil Kamath's podcast about electric vehicles in India is truly enlightening. The discussion delves into crucial aspects of EVs, offering valuable insights. Kamath's hosting adds an engaging touch, making the complex topic accessible. A must-listen for anyone interested in the future of transportation in India.

Nikhil bhai, dhanyawaad. Waise toh EV main koi business karne ki capacity ayi nahin hai. But podcast ke baad capability taiyaar kar sakte hain. Apne 6 Hr diya woh bhi free main knowledge KZread main dala. 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽

Show the entire 6 hour conversation without cuts. People who listen to your podcast are here to learn, they will happily endure the long conversations. Cutting some part that could give a spark to someone might be detrimental to your initial idea of helping budding entrepreneurs. Also, if lex freidman can have 6-7 hour long podcasts, nikhil can definitely have them. Great work though! Please keep this up 👍

Cool of you to do that. I think that's the way we can change it by pointing it out and to be aware of it (for both genders) . I am sure the guys aren't trying to consciously curb her but rather an inherent nature thats been in boys club way too often

Boys didn't under state her. She did it to herself and it rubbed off onto others. It is not even about gender here, a young less experienced boy would have had the same experience.

The blatant sexism among the men, in not including Suruchi in their ‘inspired by’ and mansplaining after her is appalling.

@@realmilind No one is saying the boys made her do it. We are talking about the general scenario . by the way, her company is a year older than blusmart, so she is not a newbie that has to be to cut off this much and then be explained her own tech to her

Thank you all for such an in-depth conversation. -Ambient air quality fund for Delhi and still the air is not so ambient to breathe…. - I personally feel manual swapping in 2 wheelers is a good option.

The school we all wanted but never had. Thank You! Nikhil Sir.

One of the best podcast I have ever watched. I completed it while I was travelling to and from office and eagerly waiting for office hours to complete just for this podcast

Nikhil is testing everyone's patience by making it longer and longer. But really, totally engaging discussion!

Reva was a great initiative. Sadly we did not have schemes like FAME in those days.

@nikhil.kamath They are giving half the picture. Because the residential electricity is slightly discounted and not geared for so much load of everyone charging the car. the electricity also has losses. For e.g. if one generates the electricity using the coal or any fossile fuel, the thermal to mechanical and then mechanical to electrical efficiency is also low and then over top of it, there are losses in transmission and distribution. In India, some major losses also because of theft or corruption theft. So for getting the power at home itself there is so much wastage. Then now if you charge car which will also not be fully efficient in utilization as the car will again convert electrical to mechanical energy and the quality of road and friction will have these losses. Ultimately, I susepct that the losses are same or more in the EV. The temperature will also not reduce, because the only change would be moving the thermal energy from car to the power plant. Also, the electric car will also convert the energy to mechanical. Yes, it would be less at a delivery point, but it will be magnifying at the generation point. Its like cement plant, where huge CO2 goes out and it destroys the temerature nearby the cities. Lastly, pure EV will destroy the entire work and generations of incoem and jobs and bring recession. Why? Because EV does not have any ICE (Internal combustion engine) and many parts, on which so many vendors, dealers, retailers, workers, service centers, etc etc entire sub system works, will suddenly become jobless and who will earn? Only the owners of the EVs plants. So entire money will again go to only top super rich and making country poorer and poorer... Of course eventually when the gap between super rich rich and middle class and poor increases and everyone goes down to poverty, ultimately these super rich also become poor, because either their wealth will not have buyers or there will be revolutions like communism, which will take away everything.

All the speakers were very protective of their business. No one provided deep insights. No healthy competition was promoted despite efforts from Nikhil

Nikhil, I believe you should get married! It’s high time 😂🤭

As a 20 year old who knows absolutely nothing about EV, it got too technical to be able to grasp and hence lost interest after an hour. The way kiran mazumdar explained biotech with such patience and in so much details got me hooked for entire 3 hrs. Hope to listen to more guests like that . ❤

Nikhil extracting every bit of internal information of what goes on in your company

EV's are definitely the future. We need more innovation and support from the people.That's it.

Watching 3 hr podcast is more enjoyable, knowledgeable and helpful then attending my entire day in college.

First time i actually listened an entire podcast this long. Needs to be encouraged. I'm even throwing a like and a comment so that the algorithm knows that this kind of content is appreciated. Great work.

This was one of the best podcast I have heard.. it's so amazing that Nikhil is getting the basic of the basic info which any one would need to start the business. I just loved it. Want to see more of these type of podcast. Thankyou

The difference between Nikhil and other podcast that in Nikhil there is Ocean of knowledge in easy way. Right now Nikhil KZread channel is the one i like the most thanks to Nikhil for giving acees to everyone of this information

Suruchi's intro was the best hands down 😊

Suruchi and Chetan really stood out in this conversation. Their depth of information, the way they explained complex concepts, the way they broke down stats, everything just excellent!

Nikhil, Please allow them to complete their sentence before you ask the other question. We don't want to lose out on anything valuable they are saying. Thanks a ton, I Love your show.

People commenting that this is like a business school need to know that you can consume data all day long but data won't translate into real world skills which the business school somewhat tries to teach. These data consumption mostly leads to knowledge showoff amongst peers.

True but I think it's still critical to listen, learn, take notes and continue curiosity, helps clear out mind clog when you are stuck on a problem or just need that boost of ideas.

I would say, every powerful person should share the network and knowledge as Nikhil is doing, this is absolutely crazy podcasts.

There should be a talk on stock broker industry with Mr Nikhil

Nikhil bhai's podcast is actually very descriptive and amazing this is exactly what I wanted a group of experts talking with each other sharing opinions on the current trends , thanks for the help and support you are giving to us...🙏🙌

It's finally here, the most awaited episode on my list. Thank you Nikhil for educating us with business pioneers of today and their insights are just amazing and real for everyone who is getting into this field.

5 people in the room and the only person who mentioned her degree more than 10 times was the girl. Ironic.

These Podcasts are too good, even if you don’t watch and just listen. They are proving to be a good partner during to and fro between Home and Office in Mumbai Traffic

On a different note, pls have podcasts regarding BFSI industry - Mutual fund, Insurance, NBFC, REITs, etc. It's a whole different can of world!

love the way how Ruchi was challenging the others in a nice way.

The best part of Nikhil sir, he asks questions very smart.

Great Conversation. Thank you, Nikhil, for bringing these people together and thank you all for your great insight about EV.

I was completely hooked for 3 hours 💯. This is the difference between Nikhil Kamath and Ashneer Grover 😂😂 Such a great video full of knowledge, waiting for more 💥🙌🏻

Love the way Nikhil questions his hosts. Brilliant

Love your podcasts Nikhil !! Would really love a podcast on Semiconductor and its opportunities in India as one of the topics for your next podcast.

loved the podcast. it was pretty informative. I feel that you could maybe upload the entire 6 hour pod, without cutting a large chunk of it. Perhaps in parts. I feel it would be still pretty relevant and would be viewed by a large audience while giving a even greater in depth understand. Regardless really appreciate you doing this for us.

I am sure by the end of the podcast, he has created a competitor for all the guests 😊. Nikhil, I must say you are doing half of the work for the youths. Really appreciate your work man, love this. Please continue 🙏🙏🙏

Pure form of content 💯, Waiting for "Real Estate" episode 😃

Best way to spend a sunday !!

This should be the one in top 5 videos this year to understand EVs and renewable energy market in India!

it's all about asking the right questions..all the questions Nikhil asked were so essentially fundamental which is a fusion of both from the investor and enthusiasts point of view..absolutely stunning

Chetan here is the real veteran of clean energy and EV. Been doing it from the time when nobody knew about EV

lack of crisp to the point information made this podcast episode underwhelming. The guests were just rambling on , felt like a college lecturer reading a textbook rather than an industry expert talking about a field they have mastered. They themselves could not explain their field in a few words without complex lingo so the audience did not learn much this episode. loved all the other episodes tho , keep it up nikhil !

Please make a podcast on agritech start-ups like fasal,dehaat etc. And about R&D companies.

Thank you Nikhil for seting up a free business school which is 10x valuable than expensive B-schools :) Epic episode. Thanks you all for taking out 6-7 hours for this.
