In April 2014, Dineout was acquired by Times Internet Limited, a subsidiary of Bennett, Coleman & Company Limited. The deal value was not disclosed, but according to some sources, it was valued at ₹70 crore.[3]

In September 2015, the company acquired inResto, a plug-and-play restaurant management suite for restaurants based in Bengaluru, India, for an undisclosed value. At the time of acquisition, inResto’s services were operational at over 50 restaurants in Bengaluru, including Toit, Absolute Barbecue, and Social, and also in other countries like Singapore and in the Middle East.[4]

According to the company, inResto then became Dineout's business-to-business arm to help restaurants manage table reservations, wait-lists, feedback management, home delivery, take-away, mobile payments and loyalty programs.[3][5]

Celebrity Chef Kunal Kapur endorsed the activity, which had a philosophy of "No one should have to wait for food". The initiative was an alliance with India Food Banking Network (IFBN) where Dineout would donate ₹30 for every table reserved through Dineout for the duration of the campaign.
