Zomato Global Finance Head & CFO- Hyperpure Hemal Jain Quits

Hemal Jain, Zomato global head of finance and chief financial officer of its B2B grocery supply vertical, Hyperpure has resigned.

Hemal, who joined Zomato in 2018, announced her decision to step down to pursue new opportunities. Her departure is set for January 31, 2025.

Reasons for Resignation and Impact on Zomato

She stated, “I have had the privilege of being part of the Zomato journey and its dynamic team over the past six years.”

Hemal added, “However, after much reflection, I have taken this tough decision to move on and explore a different path.”
