Big Billion Startup: The Untold Flipkart Story by Mihir Dalal a business journalist has amazingly covered India's startup scenario. His depth in the Flipkart story and his interesting writing style has made him win many accolades. This book which is soon to be a major motion picture is a must on every Indian household bookshelf. 

In the era of unicorns, startups, and entrepreneurship, every other Indian is binge-watching Shark Tark India. Flipkart is one such famous Ecommerce started by two daring Indian software engineers when e-commerce and startups were distantly unheard of. Creating internet e-commerce after the dot-com bubble in a country like India, when most Indians had little to no access to the Internet, was not only considered a risk. But a grave stupidity scuffed by many VCs, investors & friends of the founders. Flipkart's journey, starting from when people would struggle to pronounce Flip- what? In its acquisition battle by Amazon, Walmart to get a strong foothold in the enormous Indian Ecommerce and glaring headlines is a journey- of - kind. 

This book is a tale of intellectualism, egos & mishappening. It will give all the retrospect of what right can happen to make a company a big billion startup and what wrongs for a forceful exit of its founders.
