This truly an inspiring story for any student startups. You guys have proved even without experience working in corporate world you can successfully create B2B products, which businesses find useful.
Wishing you guys all the best for being the Skype or Google from India... And, i have decided to quit my job and and try my own way...
i mean its great that they have started their own firm.... but c'mon its IT firm not any manufacturing one.its easy to start an IT company..u just require 5-6 computer some friend finance as low as 1 lakh..its no big deal my brother started an IT company and he has offices in hyderabad,pune,germany(stuttgart), Australia(canberra) so why the fuss...
this story luks very made up, selling t shirts and all, but more over what product it is? whebn there are similar freewares available who are those 500 customers?? being in mobile apps space i know how difficult is to sell even SAP based mobile apps. what ever 500 customers in a year is just not possible!

It is a kind of a dialer or technically an ADWARE / spyware object that can be placed in your website.
Thus making your website and your business vulnerable to cyber security issues.
It doesnt comply with the rules and regulations and compliance of many countries.
As said in their own article Line
"Unfortunately, they could not get a single customer from the US."

but their website boasts of 1000 customers. i guess this is a ploy to rake in venture capital or lure investors!really very tall claims indeed

after dell success story every start up wants to say that they started in a cellar. Hilarious, why there is no other place available?

Easy. Cellar is the cheapest place available, and doesn't make huge dents in your pocket.
Bill Gates himself,by his own statement, used to scavenge garbage bins for software codes to study during his college days, to master software programming.
If you have passion and dedication and nerve, you will be ready to go through any ordeal to win.

yes buy some t-shirts print the college name for 37 rupees and force your juniors to buy it for 250 rupees
yeah,i wish my students' who started own venture had the same grit and determination that u guys have. I wish they had listened to me more ,i had put my blood and soul into it. but failed ultimately. . but i tell u many startups fail for the same reason. they fail to study the market.,wrong moves will cost heavily on the career. Keep up the good work. :)
