The laggards of the largecap segment were led by Zomato Ltd. The shares of the company fell 9% from Rs 81.15 to Rs 73.85. Amid such anti-trust allegations and a probe ordered by the Competition Commission of India (CCI), the shares of Zomato were under selling pressure since the beginning of the month. The action by CCI was triggered by the complaint filed by the National Restaurant Association of India (NRAI). The accusations were on levy of unilaterally decided commissions (by the online platforms Zomato and Swiggy) on restaurants, creating a strong barrier to entry by non-sharing of customer details with the restaurants and bundling of food ordering and delivery services. Institutional investors, led by foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) and mutual funds (MFs), have collectively reduced their stake in the online food delivery platform.
As market weakness persists amid uncertainty and soaring inflation, market sentiment has been negative for the new age loss-making unicorns with high valuations. Interestingly, the top 5 losers bear testimony to the same, with Zomato, Paytm and Nykaa featuring in the list.
