Rahul Goel, Vice President- Finance, talks about the challenges and success factors of new-age CFOs. Having worked with both startups and MNC’s, Rahul believes that the role of a CFO goes beyond finance when it comes to startups. He dissects various challenges that CFOs face in the startup world especially in the tech space, followed by the successes that lead around for CFOs.

A finance professional for over two decades, the Moglix CFO believes that two major factors that are often ignored by most financial heads at companies are growth and governance which play an important role in the journey. He stated that Indian companies have yet to understand the business model and efficiency of tech startups so that they can be evaluated correctly.

Given that tech startups ought to have cross-functional leaders, the biggest challenge for a CFO is balancing the speed and agility of the finance operations with the other parts of the business from product to marketing. “In the early stage of that product, the resources might be limited but the speed at which the company wants to run might be very fast,” Rahul added, highlighting the need for CFOs to learn about other domains to react in a quick manner.

One of the most crucial tasks for a CFO is fundraising. A new-age CFO needs to assume responsibility for the complete fundraising cycle — from the timing of the fundraise to creating a healthy financial picture to meeting with advisors to identifying the right strategic partners and attracting the right set of investors.

Rahul states that it is crucial for any company to hire a CFO from the start itself in order to be successful. One needs to be more agile, fast, and innovative in order to reach the business requirements and when it comes to tech startups, CFOs need to be dynamic. He explains how important it is in a tech startup, such as Moglix, to focus on key performance indicators.

Rahul Garg, CEO & Founder, discusses how India’s covid vaccination drive will lead its journey to self-reliance. As the vaccine rollout in India has crossed one million doses within a week of inception. India accounts for 60% of the world’s manufactured vaccine output and our global partners are looking up to us to help them out of the crisis. 

Naturally, this has become a crucial moment for India, as our capability to drive the vaccination manufacturing and supplies for our global partners will determine our focus and determination towards becoming self-reliant.

India’s COVID19 vaccine supply chain design has to be based on optimizing multiple objectives of cost, quality, and delivery. Collaboration among the stakeholders namely pharmaceuticals companies, logistics services providers, warehousing companies, and government agencies is the key to achieving this.

Rahul also says that this mission is guaranteed to be a success with all the stakeholders enrolled in a compact and connected supply chain platform to bring visibility to the order to delivery processes and track each stage of the supply chain journey. 

The solution is to integrate the individual supply chain functions of every stakeholder into a gross objective function of ensuring COVID19 vaccine for a maximum number of people at minimum costs.

Rahul Garg, CEO & Founder, elaborates how innovations by tech startups will enable growth for manufacturers in 2021. He takes a walk down last year’s memory lane, connecting it to our action-plan for 2021 and beyond. From accepting the need of digitisation to letting go of manual practices, the innovations from the startup ecosystem will be the route to achieve self-reliance.

Tech startups will have opportunities to add value to creating a National Supply Chain Network that will bring all stakeholders on the same platform through digital connectivity. Digital connectivity will be critical to building agility, speed, and scale capabilities as Indian manufacturing enterprises look to get a more significant share of the global value chain in manufacturing. 

Rahul also says that we need to segregate the supply chain ecosystem into a sum of parts that can be stitched together on-demand through combinatorial innovation to pivot with agility towards goods essential to creating jobs and protecting livelihoods. Solutions driven by scalable technologies like cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and machine learning can make this happen.

The aim is to have a vision today of becoming self-reliant and then to live this vision tomorrow. The key lies with Indian tech startups, they need to reverse the direction of innovation; focus on providing solutions to our local challenges first and then scaling up successful products across markets in the rest of the world.

Rahul Garg, CEO & Founder talks about how tech startups enabling the new normal will experience sustainable growth. Tech-integrated supply chains are on the rise more than ever due to the major set-back in 2020. Tech startups that have provided or pivoted their offerings to transition their customers from fixed costs to variable costs or reduce their exposure to health risks through remote working and workforce collaboration have registered robust growth. 

Tech startups that have lived up to the promise of ensuring business continuity, workforce collaboration, and effective remote working for their enterprise customers have thrived. 

He throws light on the growth that these startups have achieved supernormal growth during the pandemic. He also talks about how the pandemic has seen a surge in demand for technology-enabled solutions that allow enterprises to reduce their exposure to financial and health risks. 

During the pandemic, enterprises have pivoted towards outcome-based digital transformation initiatives and have put outlay-based projects on the backburner.

Technologies that have experienced a dip in demand are data center systems, enterprise software, devices, ITeS, and communication services.

Tech startups offering business transformation solutions, business process re-engineering, and modernization of legacy applications and systems have been at the receiving end of reduced expenditure by enterprise customers.
