New Delhi, April 28

Ant Group-backed online food ordering platform Zomato has filed preliminary papers with capital market regulator SEBI to raise Rs 8,250 crore through an initial share-sale at a time when the demand for its services is growing due to Covid pandemic-related restrictions.

The company’s revenue in FY20 jumped over two-fold to around Rs 2,960 crore as compared to 2018-19 fiscal. The online food delivery segment has seen significant growth in the past few years with Zomato and Swiggy competing head-on to grab market share. —PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
