On Saturday, Zomato announced that the auditor of its subsidiaries Zomato Hyperpure and Blink Commerce resigned, making room for the food tech platform to appoint Deloitte Haskins & Sells as its new auditor to streamline the audit process.
“The reason for resignation is to allow for appointment of the current statutory auditor of the Company, M/s Deloitte Haskins & Sells LLP, as the statutory auditor of Zomato Hyperpure Private Limited (ZHPL) and Blink Commerce Private Limited (BCPL) as well, in order to make the audit process more efficient,” Zomato said.
After rallying over 100% last year, Zomato shares have already gained 66% year to date in 2024.
The foodtech major is also bringing a new number of experiments. It has also started piloting a new feature in parts of Bengaluru and Mumbai that offers priority deliveries to users at an extra charge.
Zomato also unveiled an all-electric ‘large order fleet’ to deliver large orders for up to 50 people in one go. The company’s founder and CEO Deepinder Goyal said that the new vehicles would solve most of the problems Zomato customers face while placing large orders.
