Zomato share price NSE, Zomato block deal news: Zomato shares were trading flat in the morning deals on Thursday, November 30, a day after China's Alipay exited the company.

The company sold a 3.5 per cent stake in Zomato for about Rs 3,336 crore at Rs 112.7 apiece. Fund manager Fidelity, investment bank Morgan Stanley and sovereign wealth fund Abu Dhabi Investment Authority were among those that bought a sizable portion of the company's shares, exchange data showed.
