Thanks for reaching out, but I’ll pass. Don’t think I have anything more to share from what is already out in public now. Closing this thread with one last comment, this is OYO’s legacy/culture at play. Amit was part of one of the early teams at OYO. Keep an eye out for all the founders who have been bred at OYO, where everything and I mean EVERYTHING was fair game.

Totally agree ! Worked at oyo for a couple of years and this is standard oyo play.

Have heard few murmurs around financial irregularities. Not sure how true though.

Hi OP
I'm a journalist based in Bangalore; I track startups/VC sectors for a well known newspaper. I'm looking to connect with you and learn more about this. Would appreciate if we could connect at salmanfe@protonmail.com. I will make sure to keep the communication anonymous.

Is there a way to help those affected? My friend was a UI/UX designer in Gomechanic.

What actually happened at Gomechanic
Curious to know what exactly they did to inflate the revenue and lower the cost. It's easily trackly by reconciling cash flow with pnl. This must be known to their sr. Employees and Investors.
