They are failing to deliver the value but they are trying to show fake growth and raising money showing higher valuation. So the basic game is numbers you have the valuation but zero value to deliver and their Zepto pass is a bigger scam to fool customers. God bless minds of VCs and investors because they fall for such traps and spill money like crazy on such startups.

Zepto is on its way to $5 Bn valuation.

The timing of Zeptos fundraise is significant given the slump in investments into growth- and late-stage startups on the one hand and the correction being witnessed in the quick commerce segment on the other.
