$3B is still an incredibly high valuation for OYO's business model. I'll remain skeptical until they figure out sustainable profitability rather than just unbridled growth.

Not surprised to see OYO's valuation come back down to earth. A $10B valuation was always ambitious for a hotel franchising business, even one growing very quickly.

Let's be real - OYO's business was way overstretched even pre-pandemic with that failed US expansion and other blunders. They have some major restructuring and focus regaining to do.

This is actually a positive sign in my opinion. Being able to raise new funding, even at a lower valuation, shows OYO still has runway and a path forward after the pandemic disruption. Many startups don't survive that.

All the armchair critics fail to understand how vicious the pandemic hit hospitality and travel. If OYO survives this by raising smart down rounds, they've done extremely well.

Oyo is raising funds at $2 billion valuation now (it is a drop of 80% from $10 billion). Founder is on Shark Tank, the business has tanked, but he has made his money. Their bad service is well known. Your thoughts?
