My Entrepreneurial Journey
I have been an Internet Entrepreneur for over a decade.
My first venture was with my batchmates from ISB, where we started SecondShaadi.com and Gaadi.com. After selling Gaadi.com in 2010I started Groupon’s India business in 2011 and was its CEO until 2015. I was also Head of Groupon APAC from 2013-15. In 2015, I founded nearbuy.com and was its CEO until 2019.
I have built teams of more than 400 people, raised more than $40mn from marque investors & exited for more than $100mn. I have been fortunate enough to be on the list of Fortune 40 under 40 and am one of the top 25 LinkedIn profiles in India
I am an angel investor and love mentoring first-time entrepreneurs hoping I can help them avoid the same mistakes that I made when I started up.

Loved by more than 10,000+ students worldwide
Out of sheer curiosity to understand the world of entrepreneurship, I enrolled myself into FFC (Future Founders Conference). It was like watching ‘Behind the scenes’ of Shark Tank! The content delivery was seamless and fun to absorb. Thank you sir, for teaching us how to take decisions as an entrepreneur.
Najma Naaz, Insights and Analytics, TargetIn the first 4 hours of the course, I realized that I wanted to be an entrepreneur for all the wrong reasons and my ‘million dollar idea’ was actually a really bad idea. Ankur’s authenticity, elegant articulation of thoughts, and the courage to challenge the conventional B-school wisdom is why he earned my trust and love.
