Zepto vs The Smear Campaign: Aadit Palicha Claps Back 🔥 Over the past few days, the CFO of a competing startup has been busy doing…everything but building. - Cold-calling investors with wild allegations - Circulating fake Excel sheets to media - Deploying bots on Twitter to slam Zepto Why? Because Zepto’s numbers are making them nervous. Here’s what Aadit Palicha just dropped: - From ₹750 Cr to ₹2,400 Cr GOV/month in one year - EBITDA improved by 2,000 bps (yes, two thousand) - Cash burn down by 65% - Still growing 4–5% month-over-month - Majority of stores EBITDA positive next quarter - ₹7,445 Cr in Net Cash, fully bank-verified - Big 4 audits. Zero material flags. Flawless FDDs. And no, Zepto isn’t shutting stores. It’s launching more. “Healthy competition is cool. But lies? That’s weak. Let’s get back to building.” - Aadit 💥 Message received. If you're calling investors to tear others down, maybe you're not confident in what you're building up.

This is wild. Numbers speak for themselves - kudos to Aadit and the Zepto team for letting the metrics do the talking. Healthy competition pushes the ecosystem forward, but this is clearly crazy? That’s just desperation.

Also worth asking: Why is no one naming the competing startup's CFO? Feels like a shadow war between founders instead of building great products.

Honestly, if Zepto is that good, why respond at all? Let the numbers do the talking. Getting dragged into the mud just amplifies the noise.

If you’re calling investors and dropping fake Excel sheets instead of building, you’ve already lost. Petty tactics from a threatened competitor.

Idk, the way he keeps clarifying these things, like he was ready with the numbers, seem fishy. And the fact that he would take any names, makes it more shady
