Zomato share prices touched ₹213.10 by midday today (March 25), which is a sizable 4.78% lower in comparison to the opening price of ₹223.80. After hitting an initial high of ₹224.58, the stock has spiraled downwards so far throughout the day, plunging to ₹211.01 and then recovering marginally to the present figure.

Macquarie and other experts have been raising persistent concerns regarding the quick commerce segment in India and higher competition for Zomato in the category. Persistent concerns may have led to the price slump, although the stock has recovered unexpectedly in the past as well. While the BofA survey and its ranking of Zomato as the most preferred food delivery app made for a strong start, prices have subsequently fallen due to conflicting investor sentiments.
