As the extinction operations stop in the main meters, the entrepreneur and the Shark Tank India investor, Aan Gupta, has shared a sincere note on the subject, calling it a “very necessary reality verification” for the world of the startups of India.
Taking to social networks, Gupta extended its support to all trapped in the consequences of Blusmart closure. “Investors lost money,” “The founders lost years of hard work”, “Employees lost stability” and “Clients lost a service that collided,” summed up the effects of the crisis.
The popular electric taxis maintenance platform stopped the services in Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru and Mumbai on Thursday, after a regulatory repression against its co-founder about the alleged misuse of the fund linked to an affiliated company. Extra -Mart, which operated a fleet or about 8,000 electric taxis, stopped food reserves on Wednesday night. The next day, the application remained non -functional and thousands of drivers and customs extended equally.
The company’s silence has not helped. Extra -Mart only said she had “temporarily closed reservations” in an email to the client, he does not sacrifice more details.

I know how it feels:

– The founders lost years of hard work
– Employees lost stability
– And the customers lost a service …– Aman Gupta (@amangupta0303) April 17, 2025
But his message was all sad. Gupta said that even global giants have faced difficult patches. “What matters is how we, as a country and ecosystem, recover,” he wrote. “The Indian starting ecosystem is resistant. We always rise stronger. And this time we will do it too.”
Using his background as a public accountant, Gupta issued a person who called beyond pursuing growth and paying close attention to the foundations: compliance, clean books, timely audits and transparent reports. “They are not mere boxes to mark”, but the basis of a sustainable business, “he emphasized.
He also shared a lesson in his education: “Jo Bhi Karo, Dil Se Karo. Par Galat na Karo.” A value, he said, that also leads to business. “EQ, IQ and GQ (Government quotient) are important.”
As a final grade, the founders urged to demand due diligence rigorous, not only financial, but in all culture, operations and responsibility.
“Let’s use this as a reminder: build not only fast, but well,” Gupta concluded.
