"When I entered the world of seed investing, it was purely an exercise in investment allocation. It was Rishabh, one of the first founders I met, who persuaded me to take on another role, of mentor. I don’t know how much Rishabh learned from me, but I learned a great deal - about passion, tenacity, and discipline. Rishabh approaches every problem with deep and rigorous analysis. Every pre-conceived notion is put to the test of numbers, and logic. Every proposed model is examined against those that already exist in competitive spaces, and optimised for our business. In the last 5 years, TLS has had to learn a raft of new skills, in product formulation and compliance; in logistics and out-sourcing; in market segmentation and branding. At every stage, Rishabh has been able to attract the appropriate talent, integrate them into the team, and create additional value for the business. TLS has been an exciting experience for me, as an investor, mentor and student of business. I am extremely optimistic about the company’s future as a path-breaking and highly profitable enterprise, blending ayurvedic knowledge with modern science, for the delight of millions around the world."
