Namita shot to fame with her jumla – I am out of this, which turned into a legit meme. However, it is rather surprising that despite using this sentence so much in the show, she is the highest investor out of all the sharks in two seasons!
Yes, you read that right; Namita Thapar has invested the maximum on Shark Tank India Season 1 and Season 2. Her thought process behind investing in businesses is rather very straightforward.

And with this sharp approach, her net worth is bound to surprise you.
