Zomato's day started on a very "stressful" note today as its founder Deepinder&nbsp;Goyal&nbsp;tweeted he was ordering triple breakfast in the morning.
Hands down, it was a great marketing skill when Zomato's&nbsp;official Twitter handle started tweeting out its&nbsp;witty one-liners like it always does. Well, that really hyped up the IPO&nbsp;all over the internet&nbsp;and we saw some big names from the Indian startup ecosystem coming out to back the first&nbsp;homegrown tech startup to be listed.
"Make it large Deepi!," these were the 'best wishes' from its latest BFF&nbsp;Paytm's&nbsp;founder Vijay&nbsp;Shekhar&nbsp;Sharma.
Niti&nbsp;Aayog&nbsp;CEO&nbsp;Amitabh Kant also congratulated Goyal for the IPO. "Congrats @zomato for the highly successful 9375 Cr IPO &amp; raising 4000 Cr from anchor investors ahead of IPO. Zomato has totally redefined the food service &amp; delivery industry. Now present in 10,000 cities in 24 countries, their journey is truly inspirational &amp; mind boggling," he said in a tweet.
Rival Swiggy&nbsp;made a sweet gesture as it sent out a notification&nbsp;today saying it was a big day for Indian startups and also wished its 'friend'.
The memes&nbsp;played well! Twitter was filled with memes, some making fun of its peers, while some influencing to subscribe to&nbsp;the&nbsp;IPO. Anyways, Zomato&nbsp;IPO&nbsp;got oversubscribed in the retail category by no less than 50%. Overall, on Day 1, Zomato's&nbsp;IPO&nbsp;saw a fair interest from the investors as the offering was subscribed over 55% at the time of writing the story.
