Snapdeal Trims 30 Percent Of Its Employees In Next 2 Months

An Indian e-commerce company Snapdeal is ready to cut short at least 30 % of its employees in next two months. Kunal Bahl, co-founder, and Chairman of Snapdeal acquired the online payments platform Freecharge and has now joined Sequoia Capital as an advisor.

This dismissal of employees is an attempt by the company to streamline its resources. If sources are to be believed, as many as 1000 employees who are directly appointed by the company and also contract workers in the company’s logistic department are likely to be affected by this decision of Snapdeal.

The employees were given a clue about the dismissal by the company’s co-founders Kunal Bahl and Rohit Bansal as they sent out an e-mail to the employees saying that the current phase in the company is the “inflection point.”

Meanwhile, co-founder of Freecharge, Kunal Shah has joined Sequoia Capital as an advisor. He founded Freecharge and then this was acquired by Snapdeal for an estimated amount of $ 400 million. He was then appointed as the new CEO of the company.

Dunzo Gets Breather as NCLT Rejects Insolvency Petition from Invoice Discounters

Dunzo

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Bengaluru bench has dismissed an insolvency plea filed against quick commerce startup Dunzo by its invoice discounters, declaring the petition “not maintainable” after several postponements. This decision offers temporary relief to Dunzo, which has been facing multiple insolvency petitions from various creditors, including Velvin Packaging Solutions and Betterplace Safety Solutions, over unpaid dues.

The invoice discounters alleged that Dunzo had paid only 50% of the required amounts, though the exact sum was not disclosed. Despite ongoing settlement talks, no resolution was reached, and the tribunal noted Dunzo’s delays in responding to creditor petitions. Dunzo continues to grapple with severe liquidity issues, delayed payments, and significant losses—reporting a ₹1,801.8 crore loss in FY23 and owing approximately ₹11.4 crore to major vendors like Google India and Facebook India.

While this NCLT ruling provides Dunzo some breathing room, the company still faces ongoing financial and operational challenges as it works to resolve its outstanding liabilities.
