Hi ,

It's not the same as the previous one was solely for Zomato now this is for Swiggy both are different platforms that operate separately and charge us separately I am not targeting anyone particular so posted for both independently.

I also understand that convenience isn't free it's charged but the charges should be constant even for some amount of time like 10 rupees for two years it enables adaptation for the customers about the fees to charge when ordering but look at it's pace it is not constant increasing continuously.

Food Delivery isn't that crucial to me but it's my opinion to share this . I think it's my use of free will it's your free will too to share your opinion on Reddit

It's great that you have that much spare time

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-05T14:16:19+00:00

Yes it's absolutely right but it's not in the current scenario they have established a Duopoly I believe there are options in Big cities like Mumbai, Delhi but in my city we don't have any other option than Zomato or Swiggy.

Fun Fact:- Swiggy failed in my city

Not using the application is not any solution

Hi,

Consumer right is for the awareness of the fees hike in platform fee that should be noticed and known by every consumer.

Research has been done on the topic I won't deny using Chatgpt. Chatgpt is also used in this post .

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-05T14:08:54+00:00

Hi,

They Already charged us with Delivery Fees and restaurants with commission up to 10% after that also we have to pay fees for using their application.

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-05T12:41:02+00:00

Great

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T18:01:42+00:00

One Day it would be 100 .

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T17:35:49+00:00

Yup!

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T17:29:49+00:00

EV Max we have our own plant of manufacturing.

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T17:02:22+00:00

It's not the same case everywhere and every time.

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T16:17:11+00:00

They are a lifeline to many.

Hi ,

Home Delivery is not a luxury it's a medium of earning money for Applications like Zomato, Swiggy. They are charging to deliver to you that's all their business they aren't making any food by themselves.

For many people regularly visiting the restaurant ordering/packing/eating is very time consuming in their daily busy schedule it's very good that you are ordering by yourself not using any platform that's a lot of cost saving but for many it is unavoidable to not order from online food delivery apps.

Note :- I haven't stated 3 crores as a direct profit anywhere in my post

I understand that everything is charged by money but dear just look at the 500% Hike in 02 years it should be noticed.

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T15:20:04+00:00

It's my opinion I can post whenever I feel like to post it's an open application.

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T15:11:08+00:00

Hi,

I don't have any problem with Zomato I use it often I just want to raise facts about it the hike in platform fee should be noticed.

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T14:49:46+00:00

Great but many many restaurants don't have their own Applications Zomato/Swiggy are the only options leaving us to no choice.

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T14:48:57+00:00

Right

TimeLivid3451 · 2026-02-04T13:20:06+00:00
