Vegandukan is a verified, seed-funded ($325K) niche e-commerce marketplace operating in India since 2019 with over 25,000 active customers. While the external reality of the business is solid (generating revenue, clear utility in the growing vegan market), the PoU submission itself was of extremely low quality—containing empty fields, verified false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product'), and missing critical financial data. The score reflects the legitimate business traction found via external verification, heavily penalized by the poor response quality and unsupported claims in the application.
