Spend some time thinking about business. In the year 2009 started the discount coupon book company 'Money Saver'.
Under this, people were given some discount in eating, shopping etc. in restaurants by selling coupons. But in a year and a half, the target of selling 1.5 crore coupons was stuck at just 53.
According to Kunal, it then felt like it failed. Meanwhile, on 25 June 2010, the idea of selling coupons suddenly came online and within eight days the website was launched.
Initially, the results were not good, but gradually the response started increasing. He also visited China in 2011 to learn the nuances of e-commerce. Today, three years later, Snapdeal ranks among the country's leading e-commerce companies.
