Kashmir’s Tramboo Duo Batted Well, Clinched A Deal at Shark Tank India

SRINAGAR: In the latest episode of Shark Tank India 3, the spotlight of the episode fell on two Kashmiri college-going boys, Hamaad and Saad Tramboo, aged 18-20, who pitched their brand of Kashmir willow bats. What was at display was a blend of innovation, sharp salesmanship, and the fulfilment of young dreams.

The duo, currently pursuing BBA, sought Rs 30 lakhs for a three per cent equity stake in their business. The Sharks, including Aman Gupta (CMO, BOAT), Ritesh, Peyush Bansal (Lenskart), and Anupam, conducted a rigorous discussion on financial scalability and scrutinised the revenue charts presented by the young entrepreneurs.

Saad and Hamaad highlighted their unique selling proposition: being the sole market players crafting Kashmir willow bats at faster and more affordable rates. The Sharks were intrigued, and the negotiation began.

Vineeta made an offer of Rs 30 lakhs at 10 per cent equity, followed by Anupam joining in with the same offer. Ritesh proposed Rs 30 lakhs at four per cent equity, while Aman humorously criticised the high equity stake offered by others. He eventually made an offer of Rs 30 Lakhs at six per cent, playfully taunting Anupam in the process.

Peyush, delving into a more personal conversation, asked Saad about his favourite cricketer, to which Saad promptly replied, “MS Dhoni.” Peyush then mirrored his initial offer, matching the Rs 30 Lakhs at a three per cent equity proposition. Ritesh altered his offer to align with Peyush, creating confusion for the young entrepreneurs.
