The charge will apply across all customers, including members of Swiggy\u2019s subscription plan, and comes amid rising order volumes during the festive season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recent Fee Trends<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier, Swiggy briefly raised its platform fee to <strong>\u20b914 on Independence Day<\/strong>, before rolling it back to \u20b912. With festive orders peaking again, the Bengaluru-based company has now implemented its steepest hike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Platform fees were initially just <strong>\u20b92 per order in 2023<\/strong>, but both Swiggy and Zomato began testing higher charges around <strong>New Year\u2019s Eve 2023<\/strong>, with rates largely staying above \u20b910 since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Impact on Customers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>platform fee is levied in addition to delivery charges, GST, and restaurant fees<\/strong>. Importantly, it is <strong>not uniform across cities or days<\/strong>, and often fluctuates depending on demand levels. For frequent customers and even subscribers of Swiggy One, this hike translates into higher overall order costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Competition With Zomato<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Swiggy\u2019s hike comes soon after rival <strong>Zomato increased its platform fee to \u20b912<\/strong>, aiming to capitalise on the surge in demand during the festive season. Both players are using platform fees as a way to improve unit economics and margins in India\u2019s competitive food delivery market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Market Reaction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shares of <strong>Swiggy closed in the green at \u20b9430.65 on the BSE on September 3<\/strong>, reflecting positive investor sentiment around the fee hike. The move is seen as part of Swiggy\u2019s broader strategy to balance growth with profitability, especially during high-demand festive periods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Food delivery major Swiggy has raised its platform fee to \u20b915 per order, marking its steepest hike yet.
