Zomato founder now among ultrarich startup entrepreneurs after stellar IPO debut. Check his net worth

Restaurant aggregator and food delivery company Zomato’s stellar debut at the stock market with a 66% jump in the share price pushed the fortune of company’s founder Deepinder Goyal close to the $1 billion mark. According to a Bloomberg report, Goyal is worth $650 million based on his current 4.7% stake in Zomato which would double if he chooses to exercise his 368 million options vested over the next six years.

While Goyal’s net worth still remains far behind India’s top industrial tycoons, he is now among the small group of ultrarich startup entrepreneurs like Byju Raveendran of ed-tech company Byju’s, Flipkart co-founders Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal, and Paytm CEO Vijay Shekhar Verma.
