The new entrant to the unicorn club, Meesho appears to be in fresh trouble. A Bangalore-based ecommerce, entertainment and technology legal firm – BananaIP Counsels, have sent legal notices to Meesho, a social commerce platform and its logistics partners Shadowfax, over a fraudulent order being delivered to BananaIP Counsels’ managing partner Kalyan C. Kankanala. BananaIP Counsels have also urged Google Play Store to take down Meesho’s app. 

On August 4, 2021, a package for Kankanala from Manish Kumar Sharma through Shadowfax arrived at BananaIP Counsels office around 7:30 pm. Madhava Rao, who is the firms’ chief financial officer accepted the order on behalf of Kankanala, and paid for it through  online. Realising that the order was fake, both Kankanala and Rao sent legal notices to Shadowfax and the sender of the order Sharma on August 5. Interestingly, the firm received a call from a Meesho’s spokesperson a day later stating that the order was placed by a third party.
