    He further added “The cool part – return or exchange will happen within 10 minutes of raising a request!” he added.

    The new feature is a strategic move to stay ahead of the growing competition from Zepto, Swiggy’s Instamart, Flipkart’s Minutes, and BigBasket’s BBNow in the quick commerce sector, which is valued at around $5.5 billion. At present, Zepto offers a 72-hour exchange policy for apparel, but it only applies to damaged or defective items.

    However, there is no official clarification on whether Blinkit will charge aboard customers extra or if the platform will deliver the goods normally. Earlier this month, Blinkit introduced another feature that lets you get passport-sized photos delivered to your doorstep in 10 minutes. This service is only available if you live in Delhi or Gurugram. 

    There are mixed reactions from users on the internet after Blinkit rolled out the new Raksha Bandhan feature. While some users praised the service for its convenience. Furthermore, some users suggested that the offer could have been launched earlier. 

    Why not Australia? has this beautiful functionality on and I order food for my parents regularly in Kolkata while staying in Melbourne. Makes me feel that little bit better .

  • Blinkit Offers ‘Free Dhaniya’ With Veggies, People Ask For ‘Hari Mirch’ Too |

    New Delhi: After listening to a user’s mother’s suggestion who had to pay for ‘dhaniya’ (coriander) on Blinkit while ordering veggies, Zomato’s grocery delivery platform has now started to offer ‘free dhaniya’ with vegetables. This move by the company has been much appreciated by a lot of users, however, they also asked to add ‘hari mirch’ (green chilli) with the veggies.

    “It’s live! Everyone, please thank Ankit’s mom. We will polish the feature in the next couple of weeks,” Albinder Dhindsa, Blinkit’s CEO, posted on X. (Also Read: Motorola Edge 50 Fusion launched In India With Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset: Check Price, Specs, Availability & More)

    Ankit Sawant is the X user, who highlighted the absence of complimentary offerings like ‘free dhaniya’ while buying vegetables, which are customary in traditional marketplaces.

    “Mom got a mini heart attack because she had to pay for dhaniya on Blinkit. @albinder – Mom is suggesting that you should bundle it for free with a certain amount of veggies,” Sawant wrote. (Also Read: iQOO Z9x 5G Launched In India With 6000mAh Battery: Check Price, Offers, Specs & More)

    Upon being tagged in the post, Blinkit’s CEO responded promptly, saying, “Will do”. Later, in a follow-up post, Dhindsa announced the implementation of the ‘free dhaniya’ feature, attributing the initiative to the user’s mother.

    This conversation has gained considerable traction, amassing more than 650K views and over 9,000 likes. Several users appreciated the move and asked to add the ‘hari mirch’ option as well.

    “Dhaniya ke sath mirchi bhi dal dete (add chilli along with coriander),” a user wrote.

    “Hey! Dhaniya + Hari Mirch. Sirf dhaniya is not allowed. (Only coriander not allowed),” another user said.

  • After Swiggy, now ordering food from Zomato also expensive! You will have to pay platform fees of this much rupees!

    There is disappointing news from Zomato for those ordering food online. The platform has made food delivery expensive. Swiggy recently implemented its platform fees. Following its footsteps, now Zomato has also implemented its platform fees. This means ordering food online from Zomato has now become expensive. So how much platform charge has Zomato imposed? And let us know how it will affect the customer’s pocket. Ordering food online from Zomato has become expensive. This has come to light in media reports. According to the report of Money Control, after Swiggy, Zomato has become the next name among the companies imposing platform fees. The food delivery company has implemented a charge of Rs 2. Online food delivery apps are soon going to implement a mandatory platform fee which will be separate from the cart value. That means the customer will have to pay this fee apart from the cart value. Earlier, Swiggy had also imposed a platform fee of Rs 2. This fee was applied on all its orders. As far as Zomato is concerned, the company had recently revealed that it has achieved profit in the first quarter for the financial year 2024. The company has become profitable for the first time. It is also being said in the reports that Zomato has currently implemented the platform fee only for some selected users. This has not been implemented on Blinkit, a grocery delivery platform. The fee of Rs 2 constitutes 0.5% of its gross order. Zomato received 176 million orders in the second quarter ending in June. If these orders are seen on daily basis, the company receives around 20 lakh orders every day. Accordingly, by charging Rs 2 as platform fee, the company can earn Rs 40 lakh per day. If seen per month, the company can earn additional income of Rs 12 crore per month by charging a nominal platform fee of Rs 2. However, details regarding this have not been released officially by Zomato yet.
