Snapdeal co-founder Kunal Bahl mistaken for ‘Mr Bansal’
The startup scene may be populated by many names today, but the many Bansals of Flipkart and Snapdeal will continue to be known as the original e-commerce boys of India. The only non-Bansal of the gang, Kunal Bahl, CEO and co-founder, Snapdeal must make peace with an occasional case of wrongful identification.
Bahl tweeted recently that he was asked the "dreaded question at Mumbai airport." The question, of course being: "Are you Mr Bansal?" Considering he said "once again", it's safe to assume this is a regular occurrence.
He tagged his co-founder Rohit Bansal as well as Flipkart founders Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal in his tweet. At the time of publishing, none of the three had responded to Bahl's tweet.
