## About

Founded in 2020, based in Bengaluru, India, by CEO Aadit Palicha and CTO Kaivalya Vohra, Zepto Marketplace Private Limited, doing business as Zepto, operates as a delivery partner for groceries, using cloud stores and micro-warehouses to deliver groceries in under 10 minutes. In April 2026, Zepto raised an undisclosed amount?in?pre-IPO funding?from Claypond Capital, Ravi Modi Family Trust, Brescon Family Office, and the Narotam Sekhsaria Family Office.

The company will use the funding to support growth plans ahead of a potential IPO. Zepto generates revenue through grocery and essentials sales, delivery fees, vendor commissions, advertising placements, private-label products, and subscription plans, leveraging its dark-store quick-commerce model for ultra-fast 10-minute deliveries.

The company will use the April 2026 funding to support its growth as it prepares for an initial public offering.
