Zepto eyes ₹1,000 crore pre-IPO round at $4.5 billion valuation as listing is delayed
Quick-commerce platform Zepto is reportedly seeking a domestic-led ₹1,000 crore pre-IPO round at a $4.5 billion valuation, while its planned public listing—previously targeted for July 2026—has been deferred indefinitely.
Zepto plans a ₹1,000 crore domestic-led pre-IPO round at a $4.5 billion valuation, while delaying its planned listing. The quick-commerce firm reported FY26 revenue of ₹22,624 crore, operated 1,139 stores and processed 17.5 lakh daily orders.
Why this matters
Zepto's planned raise follows recent signals that the company paused its IPO and sought ₹1,000 crore in pre-IPO funding, including reports of a lower valuation for the round.
