The Crux newsletter this week. Zomato’s share prices have recouped slightly after a massive sell off, but is the worst over? Limeroad is promising delayed payments to its employees and suppliers, but with no clarity on funding will the company be able to stick to the timelines?

2022 has been brutal for Zomato’s share price, which has fallen over 70% from Rs 142 in January to a low of Rs 40.6 last month.
