Flipkart and PhonePe are expected to become $100 billion businesses, helping Walmart double its foreign sales to $200 billion. PhonePeโ€™s operating revenue surged an impressive 77% to INR 2,913.7 Cr during the year under review from INR 1,646.2 Cr in FY22. On the other hand, Flipkart saw its operating revenue near the INR 15,000 Cr mark in the year ended March 31, 2023. The marketplace armโ€™s operating revenue zoomed 42% to INR 14,845.8 Cr in FY23 from INR 10,477.4 Cr in FY22. This dual IPO chess game could redefine how global giants navigate India's regulatory chessboard and value creation timelines. ๐Ÿ‡ ๐™›๐™ค๐™ง ๐™๐™๐™ค๐™ช๐™œ๐™๐™ฉ: ๐™„๐™จ ๐™’๐™–๐™ก๐™ข๐™–๐™ง๐™ฉ'๐™จ ๐™‹๐™๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™š๐™‹๐™š-๐™›๐™ž๐™ง๐™จ๐™ฉ ๐™„๐™‹๐™Š ๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™–๐™ฉ๐™š๐™œ๐™ฎ ๐™– ๐™ข๐™–๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™š๐™ง๐™˜๐™ก๐™–๐™จ๐™จ ๐™ž๐™ฃ ๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ข๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ค๐™ง ๐™– ๐™ฉ๐™–๐™˜๐™ž๐™ฉ ๐™–๐™™๐™ข๐™ž๐™จ๐™จ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™ค๐™› ๐™š-๐™˜๐™ค๐™ข๐™ข๐™š๐™ง๐™˜๐™š'๐™จ ๐™ฅ๐™ก๐™–๐™ฉ๐™š๐™–๐™ช๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ข๐™ช๐™ก๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ฅ๐™ก๐™š๐™จ? ๐˜ผ๐™จ ๐™๐™‹๐™„ ๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™–๐™ฃ๐™จ๐™–๐™˜๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™จ ๐™จ๐™ค๐™–๐™ง ๐™ฅ๐™–๐™จ๐™ฉ $1 ๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™ž๐™ก๐™ก๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ, ๐™‹๐™๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™š๐™‹๐™š'๐™จ ๐™ฅ๐™ช๐™—๐™ก๐™ž๐™˜ ๐™™๐™š๐™—๐™ช๐™ฉ ๐™˜๐™ค๐™ช๐™ก๐™™ ๐™ง๐™š๐™˜๐™–๐™ก๐™ž๐™—๐™ง๐™–๐™ฉ๐™š ๐™›๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™ฉ๐™š๐™˜๐™ ๐™ซ๐™–๐™ก๐™ช๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™จ ๐™œ๐™ก๐™ค๐™—๐™–๐™ก๐™ก๐™ฎ. ๐™”๐™š๐™ฉ, ๐™ฌ๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ ๐™๐™ก๐™ž๐™ฅ๐™ ๐™–๐™ง๐™ฉ'๐™จ ๐™™๐™š๐™ก๐™–๐™ฎ๐™š๐™™ ๐™„๐™‹๐™Š, ๐™–๐™ง๐™š ๐™ฌ๐™š ๐™จ๐™š๐™š๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™š๐™–๐™ง๐™ก๐™ฎ ๐™จ๐™ž๐™œ๐™ฃ๐™จ ๐™ค๐™› ๐™– '๐™ฅ๐™ง๐™ค๐™›๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™–๐™—๐™ž๐™ก๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ฎ ๐™—๐™š๐™›๐™ค๐™ง๐™š ๐™จ๐™˜๐™–๐™ก๐™š' ๐™š๐™ฉ๐™๐™ค๐™จ ๐™ž๐™ฃ ๐™„๐™ฃ๐™™๐™ž๐™–๐™ฃ ๐™š-๐™˜๐™ค๐™ข๐™ข๐™š๐™ง๐™˜๐™š, ๐™ข๐™ž๐™ง๐™ง๐™ค๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐˜ผ๐™ข๐™–๐™ฏ๐™ค๐™ฃ'๐™จ ๐™š๐™ซ๐™ค๐™ก๐™ช๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ?

Mphasis, the 26-year-old mid-cap IT services firm, stands out as the only listed IT company in India that is majority-owned by a private equity firm, Blackstone. Unlike its peers that are loudly proclaiming their preparedness for generative AI, Mphasis is taking a more understated approach, focusing on "real business cases" rather than mass training programs. Blackstone's influence is becoming increasingly visible at Mphasis. Since increasing its stake to 55% in 2021, the PE firm has been driving operational changes, including the introduction of an internal gig work platform called "Geek Cloud" and a profit-and-loss tracking system that holds each employee accountable for client accounts. This unconventional approach sets Mphasis apart from the industry norm. While peers disclose detailed workforce metrics, Mphasis keeps a low profile, avoiding the limelight. Analysts believe this freedom to operate out of the public eye is a strategic advantage, as Blackstone prepares the company for an eventual exit. However, this Blackstone-Mphasis alliance is a double-edged sword. While Blackstone's backing provides operational and financial muscle, Mphasis saw revenues plateau last year, unlike its faster-growing competitors. The PE firm's focus on short-term goals ahead of an exit could also come at the expense of long-term growth. ๐Ÿ‡ ๐™›๐™ค๐™ง ๐™๐™๐™ค๐™ช๐™œ๐™๐™ฉ: ๐™’๐™๐™ž๐™ก๐™š ๐™„๐™ ๐™œ๐™ž๐™–๐™ฃ๐™ฉ๐™จ ๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™ช๐™ข๐™ฅ๐™š๐™ฉ ๐˜ผ๐™„ ๐™ฅ๐™ก๐™–๐™ฃ๐™จ, ๐˜ฝ๐™ก๐™–๐™˜๐™ ๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™š-๐™—๐™–๐™˜๐™ ๐™š๐™™ ๐™ˆ๐™ฅ๐™๐™–๐™จ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ฆ๐™ช๐™ž๐™š๐™ฉ๐™ก๐™ฎ ๐™›๐™ค๐™˜๐™ช๐™จ๐™š๐™จ ๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™˜๐™ก๐™ž๐™š๐™ฃ๐™ฉ ๐™ฅ๐™ง๐™ค๐™—๐™ก๐™š๐™ข๐™จ, ๐™ฃ๐™ค๐™ฉ ๐™—๐™ช๐™ฏ๐™ฏ๐™ฌ๐™ค๐™ง๐™™๐™จ. ๐™„๐™จ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ก๐™ค๐™ฌ-๐™ ๐™š๐™ฎ, ๐™ง๐™š๐™จ๐™ช๐™ก๐™ฉ๐™จ-๐™›๐™ž๐™ง๐™จ๐™ฉ ๐™–๐™ฅ๐™ฅ๐™ง๐™ค๐™–๐™˜๐™ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™™๐™ค๐™ฉ๐™š ๐™ฉ๐™ค ๐˜ผ๐™„ ๐™๐™ฎ๐™ฅ๐™š, ๐™ค๐™ง ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ˆ๐™ฅ๐™๐™–๐™จ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ข๐™ž๐™จ๐™จ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐™ฉ๐™š๐™˜๐™ ๐™ง๐™š๐™ซ๐™ค๐™ก๐™ช๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™—๐™ช๐™จ ๐™ฉ๐™ค ๐™–๐™ฅ๐™ฅ๐™š๐™–๐™จ๐™š ๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™จ ๐™‹๐™€ ๐™ข๐™–๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™š๐™ง'๐™จ ๐™จ๐™๐™ค๐™ง๐™ฉ-๐™ฉ๐™š๐™ง๐™ข ๐™š๐™ญ๐™ž๐™ฉ ๐™œ๐™ค๐™–๐™ก๐™จ?

The company has developed a low-cost model with reasonable margins, reporting revenues of Rs 324 crore in FY23 and an EBITDA margin of 6-7%. Packaged food brand MasterChow is raising $5 million from Tanglin Venture Partners, as it looks to grow its sauces and noodles business. The company has seen its revenues increase from Rs 3 crore in FY22 to Rs 8.2 crore in FY23. Bubble tea chain Boba Bhai is negotiating a fresh funding round of Rs 30-50 crore, as it aims to capitalize on the growing popularity of bubble tea in Indian metros. The company claims to achieve 70% gross margins. The broader food and beverage segment is seeing heightened investor interest, with deals like Khazanah Nasional Berhad's $50 million investment in Wow! Momo and Third Wave Coffee's $35 million Series C round. Early-stage activity is also robust, with startups like Pizza Wings, Burger Singh, and Ghost Kitchens raising funding this year. ๐Ÿ‡ ๐™›๐™ค๐™ง ๐™๐™๐™ค๐™ช๐™œ๐™๐™ฉ: ๐™„๐™ฃ๐™™๐™ž๐™–'๐™จ ๐™&๐˜ฝ ๐™›๐™ช๐™ฃ๐™™๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™›๐™ง๐™š๐™ฃ๐™ฏ๐™ฎ ๐™ž๐™จ๐™ฃ'๐™ฉ ๐™Ÿ๐™ช๐™จ๐™ฉ ๐™–๐™ฅ๐™ฅ๐™š๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™š; ๐™ž๐™ฉ'๐™จ ๐™–๐™ง๐™—๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™–๐™œ๐™š. ๐™€๐™–๐™ฉ๐˜พ๐™ก๐™ช๐™—'๐™จ ๐™ก๐™š๐™–๐™ฃ ๐™€๐˜ฝ๐™„๐™๐˜ฟ๐˜ผ ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™ ๐˜ฝ๐™ค๐™—๐™– ๐˜ฝ๐™๐™–๐™ž'๐™จ ๐™ง๐™ž๐™˜๐™ ๐™ข๐™–๐™ง๐™œ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™จ ๐™จ๐™ž๐™œ๐™ฃ๐™–๐™ก ๐™– ๐™จ๐™๐™ž๐™›๐™ฉ ๐™›๐™ง๐™ค๐™ข ๐™ซ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ฎ ๐™ข๐™š๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™ž๐™˜๐™จ ๐™ฉ๐™ค ๐™ช๐™ฃ๐™ž๐™ฉ ๐™š๐™˜๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™ค๐™ข๐™ž๐™˜๐™จ. ๐˜ฝ๐™ช๐™ฉ ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™ž๐™จ ๐™– ๐™ฃ๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™–๐™ก ๐™›๐™š๐™–๐™จ๐™ฉ ๐™ค๐™ง ๐™– ๐™ข๐™š๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™ค๐™จ-๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™ก๐™ฎ ๐™ข๐™š๐™ฃ๐™ช? ๐˜ผ๐™จ ๐™Ž๐™ฉ๐™–๐™ง๐™—๐™ช๐™˜๐™ ๐™จ ๐™ง๐™š๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™š๐™–๐™ฉ๐™จ ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™ ๐™ก๐™ค๐™˜๐™–๐™ก ๐™—๐™ง๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™๐™จ ๐™ง๐™–๐™ž๐™จ๐™š ๐™ข๐™ž๐™ก๐™ก๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™จ, ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™ซ๐™š๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ค๐™ง๐™จ ๐™–๐™ง๐™š ๐™—๐™š๐™ฉ๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™–๐™ฉ ๐™ช๐™ฃ๐™™๐™š๐™ง๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™„๐™ฃ๐™™๐™ž๐™–'๐™จ ๐™๐™ฎ๐™ฅ๐™š๐™ง-๐™ก๐™ค๐™˜๐™–๐™ก, ๐™„๐™ฃ๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™–-๐™ฌ๐™ค๐™ง๐™ฉ๐™๐™ฎ ๐™ฉ๐™–๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™š๐™จ ๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™ช๐™ข๐™ฅ๐™จ ๐™œ๐™ก๐™ค๐™—๐™–๐™ก ๐™จ๐™˜๐™–๐™ก๐™š. ๐™๐™๐™š ๐™ง๐™š๐™–๐™ก ๐™›๐™ก๐™–๐™ซ๐™ค๐™ง ๐™๐™š๐™ง๐™š? ๐™‹๐™ง๐™ค๐™›๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™–๐™—๐™ž๐™ก๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ฎ ๐™ค๐™ซ๐™š๐™ง ๐™ฅ๐™ช๐™ง๐™š ๐™›๐™ค๐™ค๐™ฉ๐™ฅ๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™ฉ.

This was a bulk deal in the public market. Tencentโ€™s shareholding in PB Fintech will reduce from 6.2% to about 4.9%, which will be worth more than $340 million. Last year, Tencent sold a 2% stake for $68 million, and since then, PB Fintechโ€™s share price has doubled. Tencent was an active investor in Indian startups until 2020, when the Indian government put curbs on investments from Chinese companies following border clashes. PB Fintech founder Yashish Dahiya spoke out against Chinaโ€™s aggression in 2020, saying he would buy back Tencent shares if the opportunity arose. Tencentโ€™s share sale follows Tiger Global and SoftBank Vision Fundโ€™s full exit from the Indian unicorn.
