FYI : Haldirams FY15-16 revenue is more than the combined revenue of Domino’s and McDonalds

This is twice the size of Hindustan Unilever’s packaged food division or Nestle’s Maggi and larger than the Indian turnover of the two American fast food rivals Domino’s and McDonald’s put together (via).

And then, we say Indians just copy paste business models from the west.

Maybe time for tech startups to derive inspiration from traditional businesses?
