    Most cricket ads sell products. We wanted to sell the dream of building. So we handed India’s biggest spotlight to 30+ founders. An 8-year-old starting up. A 90-year-old starting again. People who broke barriers and built anyway. And in doing so, they created jobs, solved real

    My perspective on the recent incident concerning @Razorpay
    About Razorpay and did we act with diligence?
    Did we share the data after scrutiny? Did we have an option not to share the information?
    My DMs are always open, please give us feedback.

    We need to vaccinate everyone quickly but please keep looking out for your loved ones, they may still be at risk. Lost my mom to Covid last week. She had got both doses of covishield. She was the nicest soul and the reason for who I am today. May god give her peace.

    AI made its first payment in India - seamlessly - no redirects, no hassles. We just piloted Razorpay Agentic Payments with @NPCI_NPCI & @OpenAI at #GFF2025. You chat → the AI shops → you confirm → it pays. India didn’t wait for the future. It switched it on. 🚀

    Going through some old mails and realised 7th Feb (8 years ago) was when I met a banker in Mumbai and got in-principle approval to start a payment gateway. It was a friday, left Schlumberger job on monday to build @Razorpay full time.

    For over a decade, India’s online card payments have relied solely on OTPs, they built trust, but they also added friction and drop-offs. Just 10 days ago, the RBI opened the door to alternate authentication methods like biometrics. And today, that future is already live.

    I had to use my personal CC for paying fb, aws, github bills for two years after raising our Series A because no bank will give us a corporate credit card. @Razorpay X corporate card ensures no other startup has to face the same!

    Replying to @warikoo
    Then approached @Razorpay, which is my payments partner. Got a card in 10 days with a 10L limit. My bank has 100% visibility of my revenues. And wants an FD. RP gets to see 30% of my revenue. Issues one promptly. Guess which stock I am buying when RP goes public :)

    Reading this email from a teammate's parent is the best part of the job @Razorpay! WFH has brought office home and gives families a view into the org culture too.
