My tenets for aspiring entrepreneurs:

• Be driven by commitment and conviction

• Focus on converting challenges into opportunities

• Be innovation led and build a differentiated business

• Be conscious of the social impact you can make

• Convert failure into success through a learning process

•  Trust your gut instinct more than any analyst report!

• Engrain change management as a part of your business ethos

• Remember integrity is a powerful enabler to success

• Success is even more rewarding if you give back to society.

• FINALLY, FOCUS ON VALUE ADDITION AND NOT WEALTH CREATION
