The new ₹15 charge comes shortly after Swiggy raised the charge to ₹14, which it subsequently rolled back. The adjustment shows that both platforms are responding to an increase in operational costs, and this has been done at a time of greater demand in the market. Of note, Zomato's fee was raised to ₹12, signifying some pressure felt across the delivery space on margins related to delivery.
Company | Q1 FY26 GoV (₹ crore) | YoY Growth |
Zomato | 10,769 | 16% |
Swiggy | 8,086 | 18.8% |
