Lenskart gives SoftBank about $100 million gain

Amid all the losses, Lenskart stood out with roughly a $100 million gain for SoftBank in India.
Previous bets have been mixed: they lost over $500 million on Paytm but scored big with Policybazaar (close to $400 million gain) and Eternal ($100 million gain via Blinkit).

After investing over $15 billion in India, SoftBank is now playing it safe, focusing on selective deals like Emergent and being cautious with follow-on investments.
That shift comes as India's public markets face challenges like tough competition and disappointing post-listing performance.
