Ola vs Microsoft:
1. He has decided to move Ola out of Microsoft’s cloud platform Azure to their Krutrim Cloud.
2. The whole thing started with a post Bhavish made on LinkedIn - calling the usage of the term “they” an illness and said that their AI moderation was “imposing a political ideology on Indian users”.
3. This led LinkedIn, which is owned by Microsoft, to remove his post for violating their community guidelines. Bhavish went ahead an wrote a detailed blogpost, which detailed the actions he wanted to take against big tech monopolies like Linkedin.
Zomato closed FY24 with four consecutive profitable quarters:
1. As Zomato shared their latest financials, the company managed to stay profitable for four consecutive quarters - staying profitable for an entire year - which is a first for the company.
2. They closed FY24 with 351 crore rupees in profits after tax on revenue of 12,961 crore rupees.

Crazy courageous step
It's time
Let Indian companies stand tall and create our own ecosystem
Everyone should watch bhavish's interview with rajiv malhotra
@@onetwokaafour 💯
Power move, Bhavish!
More power to you, Bhavish and to all the Bharitya companies.
Porter became a unicorn.
im all happy for indian cloud, but lets not lie to ourselves, it was just a publicity stunt, you cant migrate stuff in just a week, you need a lot of planning to not mess up stuff
Rumor mills from very prominent OLA employees seem to say otherwise. He’s making them work overtime on the weekends to achieve this. Today Bhavesh joined random calls where the data migration was taking place and was threatening to fire his employees left right & centre He completely ignored the same argument which you gave above, coming from his employees.
@maneshwarsingh8688 making them overwork can still mean its under works for some time now and theyre just behind schedule.
you see you cant even acquire hardware in a week (for this large quantities) let alone building on top of it. My job is pretty related to this sort of stuff, you wont believe how long even the small and stupid stuff takes
@@user-qu5cc5oe2h you're clearly not aware of the toxicity at the OLA workplace lead primarily by Bhavesh and his close aides. I've heard horror stories of people getting fired over the minutest of details, and Bhavesh being none the wiser. His ego centric approach to drive the growth of OLA is definitely not sustainable in the long term. This startup wouldn't see the light of the next decade.
@@maneshwarsingh8688Ola is easily the worst Indian company. Bhavesh is a hack. Their customer support is non existent. Waiting for the inevitable demise
Despite what this other guy is saying even I’m finding it hard to believe. I just saw this all today. I’m still scratching my head about Krutrim.
& even tho, I’d love for indigenisation of all things tech, especially the data, what I’m puzzled about is how much service level innovation has krutrim achieved for such a big move.
Unbelievable, nonetheless.
Your leadership is inspiring a movement
How you research about this things
Thank you for speaking up for what's right🙌
Thank you for being a voice for change
Aag lage basti me... Bhavesh apni masti mein 😅
Most of OLA runs on AWS. That is just a marketing gimmick
I have heard Alkamai is also good for saving cloud costs
Proud to support a leader like you Bhavish.
Keep shining bright✨
Moving out of Auze may be very costly. because there engress policy is very centered.
I don't think that any developer will move on from Azure to Kutrim just for current perks which they will be charging after some time, it's better for new developer to start with this but most of the startups will not rely on perk!
Nothing is impossible ❤❤
A step towards a more inclusive digital space!
Bhavish you're our hero🤩
And btw any tech building should be built for a larger audience that cannot be dictated by any single country's law.
Ola is almost entirely run on AWS already, this whole business about leaving Azure behind is propaganda.
Bhavesh did the right thing
This is the change we've been waiting for.
Go digit IPO is expensive around 630 PE, not good to invest
Same thoughts.
@@thetornadoweb2023 yeah i will invest in red time when it will go more low
next vedio top 10 punjab startups
Can you please add who funded those companies?
Hmmm... I think that would end up taking too much time every week 😞 although I would love to add this info. But usually there are many investors, so including that for each company, each week would just eat up too much time. And if we just add some investors or focus on some companies, people will wonder how/why we're only focusing on some and not others. -Caleb
Do podcast with a millionaire/Billionaire.
Maybe adani is starting his own ev bike company
We believe in you bhavish aggarwal.
This Aggarwal guy is fooling no one.
This his they them business is completely sick and maddening. Kudos to him
❤❤
Cloud infrastructure lending is a big business... Obviously bhavish wants a piece of it
Bhavesh is just giving some excuses to cut costs by cutting Microsoft and using nationalism to get himself some business.
just like easemytrip did with Maldives issue.
Better than making our citizens slave to global corporate
Only idiots who have no idea how much it costs to move infrastructure out think that way
Ola just has cloned app of uber as it’s tech skill. It ventured into ev scooters and we know how bad the tech is.. literally lot of scooters caught fire due to faulty usage of batteries. And this founder says he’ll compete with azure? I mean, a lot of people started getting away with public announcements of lies. These statements from Ola are meant for people who don’t understand the technology he’s talking about. It’s like saying Japanese cricket team will beat Indian cricket team in a World Cup match.. it just doesn’t make sense!
It's not gud AI just a stun to gain attention, chatgpt 3.5 is away bettet to use 😂
Nahh! Bard is better than any version of gpt
@@Aaditya_official just coz its free??
Facebook's open-sourced version is as good as chatgpt and it's free
competing Microsoft in cloud is like challenging god for a fight. You just can’t win it. It’s just a publicity stunt or a wrapper above an existing cloud player. Most probably aws or google.
big things always start from the rebels
AWS is the leader not azure and azure breaks often and on top of that data breaches
@@indian9632 by revenue azure and by market share aws is market leader and that also is quickly changing
@@ameetgajankush1940 Most rebellions were never won, only some won. Hoping Bhavesh delulu phase ends as a fad.
@@BelugaGuy-ks5mp coin always have two faces your mindset shows you think negative always be positive then you will notice how your life has been changed and if an Indian is creating something show some support other than waiting for his failure
Bhavesh is in his delulu phase.
but someone has to stand against this monopoly created by US giants
To break the monopoly of foreign companies, you have to be crazy. In this geopolitical uncertainty we need to have alternatives to every foreign companies available but its very hard. Don't forget what happened with Russia
Best example of breaking monopoly are, UPI and Rupay, They broke the duepoly of Mastercard and VISA
@@Hello-kh6bkSame my thoughts when UPI was introduced people said same that it's delusional
@@ameetgajankush1940 Hope they survive against US giants. 😂😂😂
@@BelugaGuy-ks5mp bro if you are indian you can relate with this idiom bhais k aage bin bajana
bhavish never revelas ground truth ...so to start cloud for training & inference how many GPUs he has? H100s ? they released chatbot which was trained on some open source model and call it foundational model and competing with google meta. All he want is attention. Hanooman seems authentic and legit.
Bavesh is Nautanki.. it was stunt from him
hindi me bol le bhai,,,,AI kio use kr rha he
I'm Canadian. I don't speak Hindi lol. No AI being used here at all. -Caleb
I like his step.
As i know Most of Indian don't know this gender thing. They just select it as like basic English.
Idea behind pronoun is so dumb and US politics.
He, she, they are all pronouns. They is just gender neutral. But, delulu Bhavesh needs to act like a cry baby for that.
@@BelugaGuy-ks5mp Either you are dumb or shrewd. I know and understand politics behind gender confusion in US politics. Gender is unesscary on LinkedIn profile and how LinkedIn block his post isn't free speech suppression ?
Kudos to Bhavish for standing up to the tyranny.
