It is believed that the ongoing Series J round could be the last fundraise for Zomato before it goes public (IPO) since the company has lately claimed that it is preparing to go public in 2021.
In September, Zomato Co-founder Pankaj Chaddah along with ex-Zomato Chief of Staff Pooja Khanna, launched Mindhouse in the UAE. The company aims to improve the mental health of its users through app-based meditation & yoga courses that help increase productivity, improve sleep patterns and reduce stress & anxiety.
