Startup founders, tech leaders, and citizens voiced their take on whether India’s startup ecosystem should focus on consumer delivery apps or pivot to deep tech innovation.

Zepto's Aadit Palicha, Ashneer Grover, and others have weighed in.

While some support Goyal’s vision of India as a tech leader, others argue that consumer platforms also drive growth and jobs.
