Additional Developments for Blinkit
In related news, Zomato’s subsidiary Blinkit recently secured ₹300 crore in fresh funding from its parent company. This investment, reported by Mint on June 11, brings Zomato’s total funding in Blinkit to approximately ₹2,300 crore since the acquisition in August 2022.
