Food Delivery Gets Pricier: Swiggy Hikes Platform Fee to Rs 17.58, Mirrors Zomato Move

  • Swiggy has increased its platform fee per order from Rs 14.99 to Rs 17.58, marking the fourth hike in seven months and about a 17% rise following a similar increase by Zomato.
  • Zomato's total platform fee including GST also rose to Rs 17.58 per order, making the effective fees of both companies nearly the same despite differing base rates.
  • Swiggy's consolidated net losses rose 33% to Rs 1,065 crore in Q3 FY26 amid higher expenses, while Zomato reported a 73% profit increase to Rs 102 crore in the same period.
  • The fee hikes led to complaints on social media about rising food costs, though some users expected the increase as the fees have become key for these companies' operating margins.
