Zepto revenue soars 2.5x to Rs 11,110 Cr in FY25 Quick commerce unicorn Zepto clocked Rs 11,110 crore (nearly $1.3 billion) in turnover in FY25, a sharp 150% jump from Rs 4,454 crore in FY24, according to regulatory filings reviewed by Entrackr. Zepto’s FY25 performance comes on the back of aggressive execution and disciplined expansion. According to earlier Aadit Palicha’s post, the company was at $3 billion in annualized gross order value (GOV) and halved its losses over the last year. In FY24, Zepto incurred losses of Rs 1,248 crore on revenue of Rs 4,454 crore. That means the startup spent Rs 1.29 to earn every Rs 1 of revenue in FY24, a figure it has reportedly improved in FY25 with better unit economics, higher fill rates, and stronger contribution margins. We are not comparing Zepto's FY25 numbers with Instamart and Blinkit due to differences in their business models and accounting practices. However, the NOV (net order value) of Blinkit stood at Rs 22,731 crore in FY25, while Swiggy’s quick commerce biz Instamart GOV was recorded at Rs 14,600 crore in the same period. Zepto's founder Aadit Palicha did not comment on the story. As per a recent report, Zepto is in talks to raise $500 million at a potential $7 billion valuation, a significant jump from its previous valuation of $5 billion when it raised $350 million in November 2024. The fresh round is expected to bolster Zepto’s runway ahead of a potential IPO in 2026, as the company pushes toward EBITDA break-even in the next 12–15 months.

Zepto in talks for $250 Mn secondary round Quick commerce and foodtech firm Zepto is in talks for a $250 million secondary round, allowing existing stockholders to offload equity. The move aims to increase Indian investor ownership ahead of Zepto's planned IPO later this year. Bloomberg, which reported the development first, said that the private equity arms of Motilal Oswal Financial and Edelweiss Financial Services are in discussions to acquire shares in this secondary sale. The transactions are expected to take place at a valuation of over $5 billion. It’s worth noting that Zepto raised its last round worth $350 million at the same valuation ($5 billion), where Motilal Oswal was the lead investor. In 2024, the Aadit Palicha-led company raised $1.35 billion, bringing its total funding to $1.85 billion since its inception. Zepto delivers over 25,000 products across various categories within 10 minutes via its extensive network of dark stores. The firm operates more than 550 dark stores and processes upwards of 700,000 orders daily. Through a separate app, Zepto Cafe, it’s also one of the leading 10-minute food delivery service providers. As per TheKredible, Zepto’s revenue from operations surged 2.2X to Rs 4,454 crore in FY24 from Rs 2,026 crore in FY23. Meanwhile, the company managed to reduce its losses marginally by 2% during the same period. Earlier this year, Zepto shifted its domicile from Singapore to India, a move that will expedite the process of listing on the Indian stock exchange.
