Dunzo didn’t reply to requests for comments on the salary payments via OneTap.
“Please be assured that this partnership is between Dunzo and OneTap, and hence, all repayment liability rests solely with Dunzo. For team members, this will be treated as a regular salary credit with no interest or repayment obligations.” the firm said in an email to employees on Wednesday.
ET reported on Friday that Dunzo had further delayed paying August salaries to several employees, after having promised to clear them by the end of last week.
Over the last eight months, the Reliance-backed company has fired close to 400 employees. Dunzo is also facing legal notices from the likes of Google India, Koo and Glance over pending vendor payments.
