After having heard the three pitchers, Aman Gupta told the trio to immediately change their brand’s slogan, which, he felt, takes away the entire charm of the brand and the work that they are doing under the brand. Secondly, he also said that the entering a new geographical location with this kind of business margin was suicidal. He also advised them to better concentrate on Kolkata itself and scale their business on a larger scale there itself.

He also, very clearly explained that, even though they were thinking of expansion in Delhi, the ones who are already existing in Delhi will not even allow them to enter the city with this business. He also mentioned that, despite being in the business for ten years, they are still at 1.7 percent of the market share.
