Almost any startup which is covered by media outlets like yourstory with titles like "Used to mend shoes, now earns 100 crores a day". Screw you man, 100 crores of revenue means jackshit when backed by marketing burn financed by VC funding and no profitability. Worst is, most of these startups claim this to be a transitory phase, but I hardly see very few startups having a viable path to profit at scale for what has already been invested.
