Flipkart's digital mall now has A food court. As Flipkart gears up to enter food delivery, the ecommerce giant is betting on everyday commerce to challenge Zomato and Swiggy while deepening customer engagement across its growing ecosystem. When Flipkart entered quick commerce last year, many were sceptical of the move, as the ecommerce giant was seen as a day late and a dollar short. The market was already dominated by Blinkit, Zepto and Swiggy Instamart, so Flipkart Minutes was not given much of a chance. Now, a year later, Flipkart is preparing to enter the uncharted waters of India's food delivery market to take on Zomato, Swiggy and Rapido's Ownly.

Zomato, Blinkit owner Eternal records Rs 20,211 crore revenue in Q1 FY27; profit jumps 268% to Rs 92 crore. 22 Jul 2026 19:44 IST Eternal, the parent company of Zomato and Blinkit, has reported a sharp increase in quarterly profit, supported by the continued expansion of its quick-commerce business. The Gurugram-based company recorded a consolidated net profit of Rs 92 crore for the three months ended 30 June 2026, up 268% from Rs 25 crore in the same period last year. However, profit fell by about 47% from Rs 174 crore in the previous quarter. Revenue from operations increased by 182% year-on-year to Rs 20,211 crore, from Rs 7,167 crore. It was about 17% higher than the Rs 17,292 crore reported in the quarter ended March 2026. The headline revenue increase partly reflects Blinkit's inventory-led operating model, under which the full value of goods sold is recorded as revenue rather than only the commission earned through a marketplace transaction. Blinkit becomes largest revenue contributor. Blinkit generated revenue of Rs 15,664 crore during the quarter, accounting for about 77.5% of Eternal's operating revenue. The quick-commerce business had reported revenue of Rs 2,400 crore a year earlier. Zomato's food-delivery business generated Rs 3,100 crore, an increase of 37% from Rs 2,261 crore in the corresponding period last year. Hyperpure, Eternal's B2B restaurant supplies operation, reported revenue of Rs 1,034 crore. The figure was 55% lower than the Rs 2,295 crore recorded a year earlier. However, Hyperpure's revenue increased by about 6% from Rs 978 crore in the previous quarter. District, the company's going-out business, recorded revenue of Rs 318 crore, up about 54% from Rs 207 crore a year earlier. Including other income of Rs 375 crore, Eternal's total income reached Rs 20,586 crore. Total expenditure stood at Rs 20,314 crore, with purchases of stock-in-trade accounting for Rs 12,860 crore. Delivery and related charges increased by about 69% year-on-year to Rs 3,150 crore. Employee benefit expenses rose by about 29% to Rs 1,068 crore, while advertising and sales promotion spending increased by about 41% to Rs 945 crore. The company reported a profit before tax (PBT) of Rs 272 crore. Current and deferred tax expenses totalled Rs 180 crore, leaving a profit after tax of Rs 92 crore. Basic and diluted earnings per share were Rs 0.10 each. Food delivery remains profitable. In its statutory segment reporting, Eternal said its food-delivery business recorded a segment result of Rs 621 crore, compared with Rs 465 crore a year earlier. The quick-commerce business reported a positive segment result of Rs 365 crore, against a loss of Rs 42 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. District recorded a segment loss of Rs 61 crore. These figures are statutory segment results and should not be described as EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA. Eternal founder Deepinder Goyal said the company remained willing to sacrifice margins if additional spending was needed to support long-term growth. "If there comes a point where we have to spend margin to grow, we will, without hesitation," Goyal said in a letter to shareholders. "We have always prioritised long-term market expansion over short-term margin. But right now, we don't need to make any trade-off." Eternal rejects low-price rival strategy. Eternal also addressed competition from Swiggy's Toing and Rapido's Ownly, which are seeking to attract price-conscious food-delivery customers. Goyal said the impact of the services had been limited and argued that their customer traction was being driven mainly by lower prices. "There's no new use case being unlocked here," he said. "The customer traction is purely price-driven, and price-driven traction without structural economics tends to resolve itself." Eternal said it was instead focusing on Bistro, its rapid food-delivery operation, as a way of serving customers seeking lower-priced meals. "What we are spending energy on is Bistro, which is our answer to the question these platforms are pretending to solve," Goyal said. Rapido co-founder and CEO Aravind Sanka has taken a different view, arguing that affordability could significantly expand India's online food-delivery market. "If the number of people ordering food online doesn't reach 100 million in three years, there is no reason for Rapido to exist," Sanka told Moneycontrol in an interview published earlier in July. Sanka said lower prices and greater logistical efficiency could encourage millions of people who do not currently order food online to use delivery platforms.
