Change in legal structure
On June 10, 2025, Meesho’s board passed a special resolution to convert from “Meesho Private Limited” to Meesho Limited, marking a key milestone toward its planned $1 billion IPO
Legacy of rebranding
This follows last month’s change from “Fashnear Technologies Private Limited” to Meesho Private Limited — part of efforts to align the company’s legal name with its well-known brand
IPO timing & banking advisers
Though no firm timeline or filings have been announced yet, the legal transition ensures Meesho is structurally ready. The company has shortlisted Morgan Stanley, Kotak Mahindra Capital, Citi, and possibly JP Morgan as IPO advisers, in line with its strategy to tap global financial expertise
Strategic domicile shift
Meesho is in the process of transferring its corporate domicile from the US to India via an application to the NCLT, following the footsteps of other tech firms like Pine Labs. This move supports regulatory and compliance alignment ahead of its listing
Issuance of bonus shares
A bonus share issue worth ₹411 crore has been approved, increasing paid-up share capital significantly — a move aimed at strengthening the company’s financial structure before IPO drafting begins
**Robust financial performance**
− Revenue grew 33 % year-on-year to ₹7,615 crore (FY 2023–24).
− Adjusted losses dropped by 97%, down to ₹53 crore
Ambitious valuation
The company is targeting a valuation of approximately $10 billion for its public listing, leveraging both growth momentum and high investor confidence
ESOP buybacks signal readiness
A substantial ESOP buyback last year (~₹200 crore) benefitted around 1,700 employees. Earlier this year, co-founders converted significant ESOPs, valued collectively at roughly $120 million — further aligning internal stakeholders with long-term objectives
E-commerce market strategy
Meesho holds a strong foothold in Tier II/III cities, where over 80 % of its GMV originates. Its marketplace model relies on seller revenues through marketing rather than commissions — a key distinguishing factor
