Unlisted shares like Zepto carry risks you should understand before investing.

1. Market Liquidity
   Unlike listed shares, unlisted shares are not traded actively. Selling your share to a buyer at market price may take time, increasing the risk of your investment getting stuck, or you will be compelled to sell at a lower price.

2. Price Fluctuations
   Unlike listed shares, unlisted shares may not be available every time. This limited availability sometimes creates heavy fluctuations in the market value of unlisted shares.

3. Regulatory risk
   Unlisted shares are traded privately and don't fall under the compliance of any stock exchange like BSE or NSE. An unauthorised platform creates the risk of fraud, failed delivery, or lack of settlement guarantees. There is no formal grievance redressal or dispute resolution in the unlisted market.

4. Limited Information
   Public companies have strict information and disclosure requirements. But there is no such need for unlisted shares. They don't need to disclose quarterly financial statements. operational changes, or shareholding patterns, which are usually done by publicly listed companies. This reduces diligence and trust in investors' research, increasing the risk before investment decisions are made.

Do your independent research before investing in unlisted shares. Else, consult a SEBI-registered financial advisor.

Zepto is an Indian quick-commerce company. Aadit Palicha and Kaivalya Vohra started it as KiranaKart in 2020, when they were 17. In 2021, Zepto and built a network of dark stores. They pivoted to quick commerce in August 2021.

How the model works.

• Dark stores are about 2,500 sq ft and sit within a 2-3 km radius of demand clusters. Riders from the gig workforce deliver for them. 

• Most of the platform is an inventory-light marketplace. Merchant partners own the stock, and Zepto earns service fees, commissions, advertising, and subscription income. It also runs a procurement-and-distribution business. 

• IPO proceeds are earmarked for dark-store expansion, subsidiary investment, technology and cloud infrastructure, lease payments, and marketing.

The following factors will influence Zepto valuation

• IPO news: Usually, delays in the IPO could decrease the price, and confirmation could increase it. As of October 2026, no date or price has been announced.

• Company value: In October 2025, Zepto was valued at $7 billion. The planned private round is at about $4.5 billion.

• Cash spending: Big investors are reportedly worried about how much cash Zepto is spending. Signs of getting closer to profitability help the price. 

• Competition: Blinkit leads with about 46% of the market, Swiggy Instamart has 24%, and Zepto 22%. Zepto’s own filing says customers switch easily to whoever is cheaper. Winning customers helps the price, and losing them hurts it. 

• Type of income: Ads, fees, and subscriptions earn more than selling goods. More income from these makes the company look stronger. 

Make sure to do your independent research before investing in unlisted shares.

These are the June 2026 prospectus figures reported by Inc42.

• Promoters and promoter-group entities hold 19.56% combined. Palicha and Vohra personally hold only about 1% each. 

• Lazarus Trust holds 9.03%, with Palicha’s father as trustee. The Vohra Trust holds 7.48%, with Vohra’s father as trustee.

• Nexus Venture Partners is the largest external shareholder at 13.12%.

• Glade Brook Capital holds 7.73%, StepStone Group 7.34%, and Y Combinator 6.01%.
