Funngro Shark Tank Negotiations and Funding:

Anupam goes out commenting that he couldn’t make sense how a pre-revenue company have a valuation of ₹40 Crores. Peyush believe that this is a hardcore tech business but because that was not major focus of the founder, He goes out of the negotiations. Aman didn’t connected with the cause ethically therefore he goes out.

Namita disagreed with Aman and was interested in the company and investment. Amit shared the same sentiment and they both come together for an offer of ₹25 lakh for 10% and rest as a debt. Founders mentioned that they raised last round at ₹20 crores therefore they wouldn’t be able to proceed with this offer. Following this, Sharks revises their offer to ₹12 Crore valuation which comes to 4.16% for ₹50 Lakhs. Founders accept that offer without any hesitation.
