Reliance buys MilkBasket

Reliance Set To Acquire MilkBasket

February 18, 2021

Reliance is all set to obtain the subscription of MilkBasket, a Gurugram-based company that delivers groceries, milk and other everyday necessities.

“The talks have reached the last stage and both parties have agreed upon contours of the deal. Reliance already offered a term sheet early this month and the transaction could be announced soon,” reported Entrackr.

This is the second round of talks between the two companies, it further added.

“Unlike the previous talk that didn’t materialise, Reliance and MilkBasket are close to signing the deal. The size of the deal is in the range of $40-43 million,” Entrackr report added.

According to an ET report, the initial talks of the second round of discussion took place last month when Kalaari Capital sold its stake to MahendraNahata-led MN Televentures.

The transaction was resisted by the co-founders and other stakeholders as Nahata reportedly has close ties with Reliance.

MilkBasket has raised $33 million in total risk capital from Inflection Point Ventures, Mayfield India, Unilever, Beenext, Blume Ventures, Kalaari, Lenovo Capital and a host of angels including several family offices.

The company was also in talks with Amazon and BigBasket for acquisition in past.
