I have failed as an entrepreneur. I fought for a long time, but today I gave up as I could not take any more pressure from one of the private equity partners forcing me to buy back shares, a transaction I had completed six months ago by borrowing a large sum of money from a friend. Tremendous pressure from other lenders led to me succumbing to the situation."Full text of VG Siddhartha's letter to CCD staffHinting at huge stress Siddhartha tells his staff: "I failed to create the right profitable business model despite my best efforts. Faced financial pressure from lenders, borrowed money. I never intended to cheat anyone."The CCD founder also mentions about the harassment he faced from a former Income tax official, who he claims attached the company's shares on two separate occasions and blocked business deals.Taking responsibility for all the transactions of the company, Siddhartha states that the company's assets outweigh its liabilities and can help repay everybody.Trying to shield everyone associated with the company, he writes that the law should only hold him responsibile as he had withheld the state of company's finances from everybody including his family.Meanwhile, hectic search operations are on to trace V G Siddhartha.
