TCS Private Limited Shuts Down its eCommerce Business Yayvo.com after 8 years of struggle.

Yayvo, a 2012-launched online shopping platform by TCS, entered the Pakistani e-commerce sector in 2014 with a lot of enthusiasm, but it was unable to compete due to giants like Daraz, Alibaba, and Amazon swooping in and pushing the company out of market.

Yayvo was an online store that provided a huge selection of top local and international brands as well as electrical devices, mobile phones, clothing for men and women, home decor, lifestyle items, books, edibles, and much more.

E-commerce in Pakistan is still in its early stages, but it is rapidly expanding, Before Alibaba entered Pakistan, Yayvo had all the necessary components to dominate the market thanks to its distinct logistical edge but it looks like the company had no other choice but to close the business for good.

Twitter’s lawyers claim that Musk has been withholding messages sent via the app. The message referenced Morgan Stanley and Marc Andreesen as well as a conversation about EU regulatory approval of Musk’s deal with Twitter.

Twitter’s lawyers also called out a text message between Musk and one of his Morgan Stanley bankers in which he cited concerns about World War 3 as a reason to slow his negotiations with Twitter.

Musk's side has totally denied the allegation of Twitter on Tesla's CEO and has said that there is no evidence for it.

The court will determine the fate of the deal scheduled for 17th October.
