New Delhi:
Zomato, the Indian food delivery giant, saw its shares fall more than 14% to a record low on Monday, as a one-year share lock-in period for promoters, employees and other investors ended. Zomato, which made a stellar stock market debut on July 23 last year, has lost over 60% of its value since then.
The Zomato stock was trading at Rs 46.80 when the markets closed today, but the crash did not take place on Twitter where Zomato was trending high with memes.
