610 kilograms of ice sold on Zepto just in the last 1 hour 🤯 Numbers like this one make me pinch myself. Sometimes I honestly can’t believe how big Zepto has become in 2 years 💜

1 Million Zepto Pass subscribers within 1 week of launch 🚀 The energy at Zepto feels just like the early days, and I've never been more excited about our company's momentum and strength of execution.

India's religious side is starting to show! Sales of puja flowers are through the roof today compared to a regular Sunday We thought it was because of Chhath Puja, but there's been a major spike since the match started 😉

4 weeks ago, I posted about Zepto Pass crossing the 2M subscriber milestone. Now, we're at 4M... I can barely believe the growth myself over the past 6 weeks. Our customers continue to surprise us and we're grateful for the opportunity to serve them day in and day out. Feels

One of the best parts about this fundraise is the fact that @NexusVP - the investment firm that led our Series A - is co-leading our Series F as well! @suvirsujan and the team have been pivotal in Zepto's journey since practically Day 1 (even being involved in naming the company

Taking a page out of my friend @albinder 's book and shaking off my social media shyness :) Serious hype at Zepto HQ right now - we’ve delivered 100,000+ cans of Thums Up for free today and the game hasn’t even started! @ThumsUpOfficial

@anandmahindra Hi Mr. Mahindra, 10-min delivery is about short distances, not fast speeds :) The avg distance of a Zepto delivery is 1.8 km. To travel 1.8 km in 10 minutes, one has to drive at <15 kmph. That’s why Zepto has 3.1x lower accidents on avg compared to a regular biker on the road.

There's more! Today, Zepto is delivering 250,000 cups of NIC Chocochip Ice Cream for FREE :) This makes Zepto the largest distributor of ice cream on any single day in Indian history. What a crazy way to bring in 2024 🍨 🥳

@annaarthoe Contrary was the first cheque into Zepto (at a $2.5M val). They took a bet on two crazy 17 y/o kids in India. Zepto is now the fastest growing internet company in Indian history ($0 to $1B+ Ann Sales in 29 months) and close to EBITDA +ve. We wouldn't be here without Contrary.

Energy is picking up for NYE and it’s showing up in the data! PartySmart pills (anti-hangover) are up 3X week-on-week. India seems pretty determined to enter 2024 responsibly 🥂

@refsrc Signals don't matter. YC is one of the only investors that has a Founder's best interests at heart. Plus, their program genuinely adds clarity to the confusing pre-PMF phase. I'm pumped that they're backing more Indian entrepreneurs - it will add a ton of value to our ecosystem!

@debarghyawrites @Inc42 We are currently doing 2X more sales every month compared to the entirety of FY22's sales (we grew fast) Also, our expenses as a % of sales are much lower today I would have loved to give this journalist context, but he never reached out for comment and published anyway 🤷‍♂️
