Summary · why it matters

Amazon and Walmart-owned Flipkart are intensifying their push into India's quick-commerce market, erasing more than $15 billion in combined market value from incumbents Eternal and Swiggy. Eternal shares have fallen 28% from their October peak, while Swiggy has declined about 47% from its September high. Amazon plans to expand its Amazon Now service from more than 15 cities to over 300, and Flipkart Minutes has reached 1,000 dark stores across 130 cities, targeting 1,500 stores in more than 180 cities. Reliance Retail is also strengthening JioMart's quick-commerce operations through its network of over 3,100 stores serving more than 1,200 cities. Analysts at Macquarie downgraded Swiggy to Underperform and warned that competitive intensity could last years, not quarters, while Zepto's unlisted shares have dropped more than 32% since February ahead of a potential IPO.
