Zepto Marketplace Pvt., an Indian quick commerce company, is seeking to raise ₹15 billion (approximately $176 million) through a private credit deal, aiming to issue rupee-denominated bonds with maturities of two to four years. The funds will be used to buy back shares from foreign investors, enhancing domestic ownership ahead of a planned IPO.This strategic move, which offers a 16% yield to investors, reflects the founders' confidence in their business trajectory and the urgency of restructuring ownership. Zepto has recently doubled its valuation to $5 billion and is expanding its market share to 28% while approaching EBITDA profitability.
