Did the deal close?

Looks closedStill trading

Good signs so far: press coverage, a data vendor entry, or a registry change such as a new nominee director or a capital increase. We have not seen the share allotment itself yet.

What we found
Registry row carries liveivory.com and both directors are the two named founders Issac John and Rahul Krishnan, so the entity match is solid. The Venture Intelligence deals-database entry naming the Rs 50 Lakh Namita Thapar raise is the closure signal, but it may simply record the on-air announcement, so confidence stays low until a PAS-3 is seen. Paid-up is unchanged at 1.4 Lakh. Note the brand is Delhi-registered though press calls it Bengaluru-based. Confidence: low.
