Zomato Changes Parent Company Name To Eternal, Internet Has Mixed Reactions

Zomato, the popular food and grocery delivery platform, surprised netizens on Thursday by announcing its official name change to Eternal Ltd, over two years after the shift began internally. The decision was made after the company's board approved the change in a regulatory filing to the stock exchanges. While the corporate name will change, the Zomato brand and app will remain unchanged. The name alteration still needs approval from shareholders, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, and other authorities.

Deepinder Goyal, the founder and CEO of Zomato, took to X to share the news with a formal announcement letter. “Our board has approved this change today and I request our shareholders to also support this change,” Goyal wrote. If approved, the company's website will transition from zomato.com to eternal.com, and its stock ticker will be updated as well.

The name change has sparked a wave of reactions across social media, with many netizens sharing humorous takes on the new identity. One user commented, “What is this, Doom Eternal but for biryani deliveries?
