  • The Book of Hard Truths: Why India’s Middle Class Is at a "Breakpoint" | Saurabh Mukherjea
    Mar 27 2026

    In this deep-dive, Saurabh Mukherjea and Sapana Bhavsar share the data-backed reality behind our latest book, "Breakpoint." This is an honest conversation about the structural crossroads facing millions of middle-class Indians, the engine of our economy.Saurabh pulls back the curtain on the questions for which answers were long overdue:


    ➡️ Why is our education system producing millions of graduates who are essentially "unemployable" in a world of Generative AI?

    ➡️ AI is no longer just replacing factory labour; it is hollowing out the cognitive roles of coders, analysts, and managers.

    ➡️ As job security fades, why are smart professionals borrowing more than ever to maintain global lifestyles they can no longer afford?

    ➡️ What happens to an economy when its "productive" class stops saving and starts gambling their wealth in F&O markets?


    This isn't just another book. Saurabh explains why "Breakpoint" is a necessary read for three specific groups: the modern professional, the aspirational youngster, and the nation's policy makers.


    The major question remains: If the middle class is the nation’s engine, what happens when that engine is under the pump and running on debt?


    Watch the full podcast to understand these structural shifts and learn how to navigate the decade ahead.
