- Regulatory changes affecting social commerce, seller compliance, consumer protection, payments or small-business credit.
- Material changes in return rates, delivery costs, product-quality complaints or customer retention in value-commerce categories.
- Monitor whether Meesho discloses reseller counts, reseller GMV contribution, repeat-order rates or earnings data.
