Swiggy, the Bengaluru-based foodtech major, is preparing for a $1.2 billion IPO and is in discussions to enter the B2B space to boost its revenue streams. Industry experts suggest that Swiggy should target a modest valuation, similar to its last funding round, rather than aiming for a high valuation. Swiggy could tap into foreign institutional investors' capital and leverage Zomato's successful IPO to secure a healthy stock market debut. The quick commerce vertical, which includes Swiggy's Instamart, is also expected to contribute to Swiggy's growth and revenue. Additionally, Swiggy is exploring opportunities in the B2B sector and expanding its offerings beyond food delivery.
