Anupam Mittal, founder of Shaadi.com and People Group, revealed that he earned Rs 50 crore in a single year, but his journey to success was filled with early failures. From starting a book library and a sports club as a teenager to losing his first million at 25, Mittal learned resilience and perseverance. A chance conversation with a priest inspired him to launch Shaadi.com, which became profitable by 2005. His key lessons include learning from failures, innovating within existing markets, and prioritizing action over strategy—principles he also applies while investing in startups on Shark Tank India.
