Years of Experience: ~ 7.5 years
Current Experience: Lead Software Engineer
Current CTC after negotiation ( Zeta) - 60L(base) + 20L (RB) + 30 LPA STOCKS ( for 4 years )

RAZORPAY (LEAD) - 59L(base) + 24L (JB) + 70L stocks (for 4 years)
Navi (sde 3)- 50 L(base) + 15L(JB) + 20L stocks. Definitely no to navi.
Groupon (Sde 4) - 62L(base) + 5L (JB) + 25L stocks (for 3 years). I think no for this too.

Please provide your inputs whether I should leave my current org or not? Looking for good career growth and stability / future roadmap of the product?

    Stay and keep interviewing at other places. Not much upside in joining any of these.

      Soon means diiferent things for everyone.
      This says not atleast for next 2.5 years, this was in December. https://techcrunch.com/2021/12/19/indian-fintech-giant-razorpay-valued-at-7-5-billion-in-375-million-funding/

      A lot of things are considered when companies try to go IPO, market conditions, competition, general perception of public, product adoption and customer retention rate, world economics etc etc. Any one of those can delay IPO indefinitely. My suggestion would be to negotiate for more base because your base is already high. So there is not much increment over that. Any extra stocks/esops are like lottery. You can't sell them in case you need cash (until company goes public, which is uncertain), it'll be just a piece of paper. If you were to go to a public company, then thats a different thing.

      OP
      Razorpay has already gone from x-> 7x/8x phase and zeta is still on that phase to achieve 7x. Zeta is valued around 1.5 and razorpay around 7.5 which is quite huge difference. And yeah both are liquid money for ESOPS too. These days companies have esops exit plans too where you can sell more than 50% ESOPS.
      Keeping this in mind esops value is quite good.
