Yay, we finally decided to start a podcast. Thanks for tuning in to the first episode of The Rainmatter Podcast. The idea of the podcast is to talk and learn from the best and brightest founders and investors in the Indian startup ecosystem. We hope this podcast becomes a source of learning in your entrepreneurial journey.  

In the first episode, we decided to catch up with Vishvajit Sonagara, the founder of Quicko which is working on making taxes easy for individuals and businesses. In this conversation Vishvajit talks to Nithin about:

1. The Quicko story and the motivation


2. How he built the core team and the challenges


3. What the Quicko team does all year round given that tax filing is seasonal :) 


4. What is Quicko Sandbox, the objective of building it, and how it is helping businesses 


5. Observations about the userbase of Quicko


6. Thoughts on the taxation announcements in the budget


7. The Indian tax base in numbers


8. Why people don't file taxes and some reasons why the Indian tax base is so small


9. What if income tax was abolished


10. His learnings throughout this journey


11. His thoughts on managing people


12. Advice for budding entrepreneurs

Please enjoy this conversation with Vishvajit. We'd also love to hear your thoughts on this episode and also in general, we are @rainmatterin on Twitter.
