This was totally avoidable on the part of Zepto’s founder 🙏🙏

He literally thinks that anybody who owns Swiggy and Zomato’s shares is an enemy, who is bound to badmouth Zepto?

He has stated that in an interview to ET Prime’s Manu
.

By that definition, anybody who owns ITC must also be a smoker, and anyone who owns Hyundai shares would never buy a Maruti Suzuki car, and rather talk ill about those wherever they go.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Plain stupid.

..

With deep respect, I think, Zepto’s investors should push Aadit Palicha to get a PR and communications agency.

Back to back interviews and LinkedIn posts every few weeks, needless controversies, all for what?

You’ve built something so phenomenal and amazing at such young age.

Why drive people away from it with needless stupid commentary?

..

The founder himself says that:

- Zepto’s DRHP is 65% ready

- Zepto is raising another mega round, and will file for an IPO right after that

So, why do anything irresponsible? Act mature. You are a founder today, but will be a promoter just in a few months.

Act like it, man! This is the time to win confidence of retail investors. Not say that they have already chosen sides to be in Team Zomato and Team Swiggy.
