Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal Has A Fleet Of Sports Cars
While Deepinder Goyal hasn't publicly discussed his fondness for sports cars, reports suggest he owns a collection that includes a Ferrari Roma, a Porsche 911 Turbo S, a Lamborghini Urus, and a Porsche Carrera S.
Former Shark Tank India judge and ex-BharatPe founder Ashneer Grover once remarked on Deepinder Goyal's affinity for luxury cars, alleging that Goyal would purchase sports cars following each round of funding.
"I am passionate about cars and it's not just me, it's everyone. Jaise Zomato ka founder hain Deepinder, sabse zyada shauk usko tha. Jab bhi uska round raise hota tha uski nai sports car aa jati thi toh hum bade chidte the (Zomato founder Deepinder Goyal was obessesed with cars. He would buy a sports car every time he got a round of funding and we would get a bit annoyed because he would get to ride luxury cars)," Grover said in a podcast last year. "He would drive sports cars even 10 years ago."
He further noted that Albinder Dhindsa, founder and CEO of Blinkit, similarly indulged in acquiring a Range Rover after securing a couple of rounds of funding.
