      PE guys looking down on boring IB guys like. In any case, the interviewer was unprofessional with his words (might be part of Mumbai culture for all I know) and sounded unprepared. IB guy's advice was to just do "something". What he said about entrepreneurship has been repeated a quadrillion times. I am not sure what you found engaging.
      Edit: This is just my perspective as someone working in IB in NY looking to exit into GE or VC where the seniors (VPs and MDs) are very professional and won't make a single mistake with word.

    What happened to Driefcase...
    Govt. Launched the health card.
    All i need to do is share the otp and select my report to share...why will i pay or anyone will pay for that to driefcase...govt already has an app
    We are Indians...only reason we use G pay and Phone pe is they are free.
    The day they start charging comissions as low as 0.1 percent we will switch to BHIM ...we never pay for things which are available for free....NEVER.
    NOW WHAT.

    As long as services are free Indians use apps that saves their time. But if service charges are introduced people shift to free apps no matter how difficult the app is to navigate.
