The round included participation from domestic high-net-worth individuals (HNIs), family offices, and financial institutions

Round involved Taparia Family Office, Mankind Pharma Family Office, RP Sanjiv Goenka Group, and Cello Family Office

Family offices of Haldiram Snacks, Sekhsaria, Kalyan, Happy Forgings, Mothers Recipe, and celebrities Abhishek Bachchan and Sachin Tendulkar have invested

The funds might be used to expand the 10-minute quick delivery service, dark store network, and finance operations
