ABOUT THE BOOK

Fall Again, Rise Again is an intimate and moving autobiography of one of India’s most successful start-up entrepreneurs.

If ever there was anyone whose life could be described as nothing but a roller-coaster, it is that of Sandeep Aggarwal. ‘Fall Again, Rise Again are words that sum up the entire life of the founder of two billion-dollar companies—Droom and ShopClues.

Sandeep’s story is that  o  middle-clas bo wh coul no speak English for much of his school life but dreamt to make it big someday. A young professional who went to the US and could not  get a job but eventually became one of the most sought-after Wall Street analysts.

He achieved more success than he could imagine but gave up everything   to   return   to   India   to   become   an   entrepreneur.

An entrepreneur who built one of Indias very few unicorns but was ousted from his own company. A dreamer who saw his dreams crushed by charges of insider trading in the US but rose like a phoenix to create  yet  another  company.  An  accused whose  agonizing  wait  for  a  final  decision  in  his case continued for six long years but that did not stop a string of global investors from putting mone int Droom includin Japans Toyot Grou company  ma wh finall ende up feeling vindicated when the US government dropped all criminal charges against him in February 2020, and the Securities and Exchange Commission settled all civil charges against him around the same time.

This is unlike any autobiography, especially among those written by people from the business world. Sandeep’s emotional strength and searing honesty will inspire and impact you in a way that is very, very rare.

Even during the worst possible time, that the world has ever seen, the book will put you on the path to learn the art of achieving success even after facing struggles and failures in life.
