Dead unless they can raise. Even if they can raise it's a zombiecorn.

The app is supposed to be linkedin for blue/grey collar in india. However user retention is awful. Like, worse than a loan app. Users on decline for last 1y.

Why would you listen to anything investors say. They will say nothing except good things.

Listen to the customers of apna. They think it's a fraud. Many job listings on the platform are fake. Why should people need to pay to get interviews anyway.
