Two early angel investors in online beauty and makeup products retailer Purplle have secured a 40X return on their angel investment over a nine-year period, after both investors offloaded their shareholding to Goldman Sachs in a secondary exit deal, said two people aware of the development.
Angel investors Abhinav Sinha and Anirudha Gopalakrishnan who are former Fidelity Investments executives invested ₹25 lakhs and ₹20 lakhs respectively when Purplle was launched in December 2011, said the first person mentioned above requesting anonymity.
