In yesterday’s Shark Tank India’s episode, the founder of Lenskart Peyush Bansal said, ” Ek advice hai CA se durr raho’ which quite offended many viewers. The watchers took to the Twitter and showed their disappointment regarding the same quote. Have a look at some tweets
So a guy turns up on national TV as a mentor to StartUps and blatantly advice- “Ca se dur raho” without any reasoning.
Sad part is it’s CAs who are actually being mentors to lacs of startups, mostly without getting too much in return. And someone says this.#SharkTankIndia

This is NOT a small thing, we should not let it pass. We and our Institute should make sure that he’s that one who stays away from CAs, and NO CA does any consulting/audit/valuation work to all companies he is associated with, untill he issues an apology.#SharkTankIndia
#SharkTankIndia episode dated 7.01.22 @SonyLIV remarks by #PeyushBansal of #Lenskart against Chartered Accountants were unwarranted. He forgot that his co judges in #SharkTank #NamitaThapar and #AmanGupta are also CAs. Appeal to CA fraternity – #SayNoToLenskart in next purchase pic.twitter.com/00ZUJB9iZg

I am sure the Financial Statements of @Lenskart_com must be signed by an ophthalmologist.#saynotolenskart#SharkTankIndia

The very first stage of startup is forming a legal entity under which you start your work, all financial planning and tax advisory is provided by CA only. He should have been careful in saying CA se dur raho. Such a general statement could have been avoided#SharkTankIndia #ICAI https://t.co/LbE7JakPY7

Few days back Ashneer Grover, BharatPe Founder and MD, has observed himself in a controversy after an audio clip surfaced on social media carrying abuses allegedly being hurled by him and one of his family members at a Kotak Group employee. The Shark Tank India judge took to Twitter and LinkedIn on Thursday to say that it was a fake audio clip by using some seamster attempting to extort cash from him in Bitcoins. The unverified audio clip went viral this week allegedly over the non-allocation of shares in trend e-commerce company Nykaa that currently went public. The viral audio was tweeted by an nameless deal with alongside with the caption: “How prosperous founders deal with terrible financial institution employees”. The audio was shared by many different Twitter users as well.
