Founded in 2015, Meesho, one of India's fastest-growing e-commerce platforms, operates from its headquarters in Bengaluru. It was founded with the specific goal of making web selling simple and inexpensive for all people, particularly small enterprises and new business owners. Meesho has developed a unique platform that allows sellers to reach millions of customers without the usual challenges or expensive costs of opening an online store. It harnesses the power of social commerce.

The platform facilitates direct communication between suppliers and consumers as well as an extensive network of resellers who advertise products on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. These third-party sellers provide a low-risk, high-opportunity ecosystem for startup entrepreneurs in exchange for commissions on each sale.

Meesho is the first e-commerce platform in India to eliminate seller fees, and one of its most revolutionary innovations is its 0% commission model. With more than 110 million active listings every day in various categories, which include beauty, baby care, home & kitchen, fashion, and more, Meesho has grown into a launching pad for innumerable digital-first sellers nationwide. The Meesho IPO is not just any random IPO that is to be ignored; it marks a totally new chapter in the brand’s development.

Leadership and Board Realignment


As part of its IPO preparations, Meesho has reorganised its board to improve its administration and strategic direction. The promotion of co-founder and CEO ViditAatrey to the position of Chairman and Managing Director demonstrates strong founder-led leadership. Co-founder and Whole-time Director Sanjeev Barnwal is the company’s Chief Technology Officer, heading technology and product engineering.

Meesho's changing priorities are apparent in the updated board composition, which should boost investor confidence as the business moves into its next stage of development.

Though pre-IPO is a very exciting way of venturing into investment, it is done on startups that may or may not have a track record; hence, it is important to evaluate and invest accordingly.
