Zepto discusses anchor allocations for IPO at implied $3B valuation
Quick-commerce platform Zepto is reportedly targeting a ₹5,000 crore fresh issue and a small ₹106 crore OFS. The indicative ₹3 billion post-money valuation is sharply below its $7 billion private-market valuation in October 2025.
Zepto is discussing anchor allocations for an IPO at an implied $3 billion post-money valuation, sharply below its prior $7 billion private valuation. The quick-commerce firm may raise ₹5,000 crore primarily to fund expansion and strengthen its balance sheet.
Why this matters
Zepto's anchor-allocation discussions follow reports of a ₹10,000–11,000 crore IPO and a ~$3 billion target after investor pushback. A separate Delhi HC ruling also restrained Zepto Finance's use of the Zepto trademark.
