Episode #54 How to Enhance Business Valuation in discussion Expert : Vinay Pandya , Managing Partner , Mantraa Advisory   Why did we do this episode: We often hear founders and business owners discussing their business valuation — but rarely do they talk about what they’re actually doing to improve it. Another common misconception is that business valuation is only necessary when raising capital or planning an exit. In reality, when approached as an ongoing process rather than a one-time event, a business valuation exercise can serve as a powerful lever for strategic growth, even without an immediate fundraising or sale in sight.  𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭: Vinay Pandya is CA, CS and Valuation expert with 40+ yr exp.  Profile: https://msmetalk.com/profile-mantraa-advisory-services/Welcome back to MSME TALK® with Industry Expert.

Doorstep food delivery services are the latest trend to have changed the dynamics of the F&B industry. According to a report by RedSeer Management Consulting, cloud kitchens are set to be a $2 billion industry in India by 2024, up from $400 million in 2019.
