Swiggy Q2FY25 consolidated loss narrows to Rs 626 cr

The company, which went public on November 13, posted a consolidated loss of Rs 626 crore ($74 million) for the second quarter ending September 30, an improvement from the Rs 657 crore loss recorded during the same period last year, Reuters reported.

Swiggy and its chief competitor, Zomato, have expanded beyond food delivery to invest in quick commerce, aiming to make this a significant growth driver.

The segment includes delivering items such as milk and electronics in under 15 minutes.

Swiggy’s Instamart faces competition from Zomato’s Blinkit, start-up Zepto, and Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance, a recent entrant in the space.

For the second quarter, Swiggy reported revenue of Rs 3,601 crore, marking a 30.3% year-on-year increase, while its expenses rose 23% as it pushed ahead with its quick commerce initiatives.
