I think the thesis for merger might be social commerce, but is likely to fail

And these Meesho guys have the audacity to come on some podcast and do gyanbazzi 🤦‍♂️

If this happens, atleast their user would have little more fun 😆

Bro Sharechat doesn't need to buy Meesho or anything else. 
 Ad revenues are real revenues.

This is a dumb as fuck idea that's bound to end in tears, if true.

Whats the synergy? Meesho has long moved on from social commerce. B2c is more than 85% of their topline now

Founder

Social Commerce is a big failure outside of China. TikTok is burning its fingers with the same model in the US. Moj tried that here for a year so did other failed startups like Trell. It just doesnt work here.

In current climate, great to see they’re able to raise! Folks at Meesho, some questions: 

- does anyone know if this is a down round?
- how’s the climate inside Meesho? Appraisals, hiring etc 
- are all employees allowed to sell in the secondary?

Will these cash burning companies just continue raising money and biding time or will they implode soon?
Not well informed on this, genuinely want to know how this works
And what happens to their 1000s of employees

What will happen to BYJUs/Sharechat type companies?

Sharechat and Meesho Merger

Venture Capital

lot of negative rumours- founders quitting, monetization efforts not panning out, mass layoffs. What does the future look like?

How bad are things in Sharechat?

Meesho doing its fourth ESOPs buyback worth 200 crore

Lets collate a list. I will start with a few guesses.
1. Bounce
2. Zepto
3. Sharechat
4. Dealshare

please add - lets collate a list and analyse again in 18 months.

What all large startups will shut down (fold) over the next 18 months?

Do you guys agree with the list? Anymore candidates

Oyo was the only Indian startup who had defined a  India specific problem, had a solution and had money to scale. What went wrong? What a pity. 
  
 In comparison Airbnb made it big...

ShareChat’s 62% increase in revenue for FY23, at Rs 540 crore. However, its losses widened 38% to Rs 4,064 crore

Sharechat 3rd layoff

Yep, this is the exact headline that should have been put out for Meesho's raise. VCs will literally do anything to help a startup IPO and then throw the retail investors under the bus.

Meesho to burn $300M

Founder’s Office

Sharechat raises 50M USD via Convertible Debentures from existing investors. The picture isn't as rosy as what it seems. Plus, twitter bio suggests that they are now positioning as an AI powered content platform? Welcome to the peak AI era. Time to jump off the AI bandwagon when normies start chanting AI AI AI.
