SoftBank Sold ₹1,650 Crore Of Meesho, And The Stock Rose 3% The Next Day

The number that matters is not ₹1,650 crore. It is the 3.3 per cent gain the next morning. A block of that size from the largest pre-IPO backer, placed at a discount, would normally weigh on a stock for days. Meesho abso…

Ultrahuman Raises $70M After Engineering Its Way Around a US Import Ban

RentoMojo Files Its RHP With ₹104 Crore FY26 Profit As Furlenco's Rises 19-Fold
