“D2C businesses start to mature only at the Rs 600-1,000 crore level”. “Any founder saying they’re selling for synergy purposes at the Rs 50-100 crore level does not make sense”

It’s a win-win for both D2C as well as FMCG.
D2C founders end up making more money than the CEOs of these FMCG companies make in a lifetime, and FMCG companies have the trendy products in their portfolio.
