Zomato CEO Announces Major Event Featuring Dua Lipa, Following Paytm Ticketing Business Acquisition

Just a day after acquiring Paytm’s entertainment and ticketing business, Zomato’s CEO, Deepinder Goyal, announced a significant event: this year’s Zomato Feeding India Concert (ZFIC) will be headlined by pop sensation Dua Lipa. Scheduled for November 30 in Mumbai, pre-sale tickets for the event will be available on the Zomato app starting August 27. Goyal highlighted that ZFIC aims to mobilize communities in the fight against malnutrition and hunger in India.
Zomato recently acquired Paytm’s ticketing division for ₹2,048 crore, marking a strategic shift towards the ‘going-out’ sector. While Paytm will continue its services for the next year, customers will soon be directed to Zomato’s new lifestyle app, ‘District,’ set to launch in the coming weeks. This acquisition aligns with Zomato’s broader strategy to expand its service offerings beyond food delivery, targeting new revenue streams in the entertainment sector.
