Deepinder Goyal's love for cars

Earlier, former Shark Tank India judge and ex-BharatPe founder Ashneer Grover claimed that Deepinder Goyal would buy sportscars after every round of funding.

He said in a podcast, “I am passionate about cars and it's not just me, it's everyone. Jaise Zomato ka founder hain Deepinder, sabse zyada shauk usko tha. Jab bhi uska round raise hota tha uski nai sports car aa jati thi toh hum bade chidte the (Zomato founder Deepinder Goyal was obessesed with cars. He would buy a sports car every time he got a round of funding and we would get a bit annoyed because he would get to ride luxury cars).”
