Zomato's one-year lock-in period of 613 crore shares ended on July 23. Also, experts had already expressed the possibility that after the end of this lock in period, there will be a huge sale in the shares of the company.

Investors who bought shares of the company before the IPO are now selling it. A major reason for this sale is that Zomato's market cap has fallen below its last private market valuation of $5.5 billion, say experts.

Lock-in period is for certain investors. Whenever the lock-in of a large percentage of the stock ends, those investors can sell their shares. They cannot sell their shares before the lock-in period.
