Kunal Bahl gets a sweet surprise from Snapdeal alumna: Babka, box of chocolates & a letter

We all love success stories. But, entrepreneur Kunal Bahl, who first launched Snapdeal in 2007-08 as an offline couponing company, loves to give a shout-out when his former colleagues excel in their life and career.

The investor took to Twitter to congratulate his Snapdeal alumna, Radhika Gulati - who had left Snapdeal in November 2015 after a 10-month stint - to start her new venture.



The 37-year-old e-tech boss ordered a Jewish cake - Babka - from the chocolatier's company - Rosarté. The handcrafted Babka came with a letter and a "surprise box" of chocolates.

"Such an incredibly awesome feeling when Snapdeal alumni excel in their own entrepreneurship journeys," he wrote.

In the letter, Gulati said that she has been living in Sweden and working on the marketing of her company, virtually. Her sister, Simar, takes care of the kitchen operations and logistics.

The shepreneur launched the chocolaterie that specialises in truffles, bonbons and artisanal bakes in New Delhi in December 2015. The company deals with Belgian chocolate and single origin chocolate from around the world.

Gulati took a trip down the memory lane when she got through Snapdeal as a Senior Associate for Strategic Partnerships after graduating from Babson College in Massachusetts

"The incredible culture of working at Snapdeal and the unmatched entrepreneurial lessons stay with me," she wrote.

Bahl started his e-commerce company in February 2010 with his school friend Rohit Bansal at a young age of 28. In September 2019, Bahl, along with his Bansal, turned investor through their VC firm Titan Capital.

With names like Bira 91, Mamaearth, Ola, Razorpay & Urban Clap, the VC backs over 150 companies in India and the US.
