It is hot news that is burning shareholders' portfolios as food tech giant Zomato's share prices plunged to a record low. Zomato's share price plunged more than 14 per cent  intraday to Rs 46 a piece, a new all-time low on Monday, as the one-year lock-in period for the pre-IPO investors has ended. 

With this one-year lock-in of around 613 crore Zomato shares, which is to the tune of 78 per cent of the total paid-up capital of the company faced sell-off risk 

Shares of Zomato listed on exchanges on July 23 which was a historic moment for startups but 52 weeks down the landscape and mood has changed dramatically. 

Zomato does not have any 'promoter' listed as a result as  per SEBI norms, all shareholders, including the founders, collectively owning 77.87 percent who were locked-in would be free to sell the shares without any disclosures
