Goyal, who was also a judge at Shark Tank India Season 3, said: "I see a lot of founders starting a lot of companies, and I ask them why did you start this company, and the answer is 'I want to make a lot of money'... I don't think that works, because that leads to bad governance calls… that's not the purpose with which you should start a company.
“Starting a company just for money cannot work as it may lead to bad governance calls.”
Sharing his experience, the Zomato CEO advised: “You should be so passionate about something, you should be willing to risk your life for it, only then you are able to build a company of your dreams. That's the only piece of advice I have... do it with passion, don't do it for money.”
