Zepto has delayed its planned IPO by a few months after limited mutual-fund interest, sources said. The quick-commerce firm is instead considering an up to ₹1,000 crore raise from existing investors, despite FY26 revenue of ₹22,623.58 crore and a ₹5,905.19 crore net loss.
Zepto has paused its planned Rs 10,000 crore IPO after limited mutual-fund interest and intends to raise up to Rs 1,000 crore from existing investors. The quick-commerce firm reported FY26 revenue of Rs 22,623.58 crore and a Rs 5,905.19 crore loss.
Why this matters
Zepto’s IPO pause follows recent signals that investor bids fell short of its valuation target and that it was seeking a ₹1,000 crore pre-IPO raise, amid scrutiny of its dark-store quick-commerce model.
