Mumbai, Sept 20: Online software marketplace TechJockey.com on Thursday said cricketer Rishabh Pant has picked up 2 per cent stake in the company for Rs 7.40 crore.
Techjockey.com, founded in 2017 by former Zomato Vice President Akash Nangia and his college friend ex-McKinsey executive Arjun Mittal, connects software vendors with small businesses across India, a company statement said.
Earlier this year, the company expanded its operations into the US market.
The fresh capital was raised at a valuation of Rs 370 crore (approximately USD 44.17 million), with Pant acquiring a 2 per cent stake in the company as part of the deal, Nangia said in the statement.
This valuation reflects command with which Techjockey secured investment a few months back from Forcepoint global CEO Manny Rivelo earlier this year, it stated.
