Did the deal close?

Looks closedClosed down

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.

Trading
Closed down · Dated press or data-vendor coverage (inc42.com, 14 Jul 2026)
What we found
Inc42 names Ritesh Agarwal as a backer, but the registry shows no post-air director and the company has since shut down. Confidence: low.
