Swiggy Instamart is reportedly appointing Ankit Jain, a Senior Vice President at Flipkart, as its new SVP. He will replace Sairam Krishnamurthy, who has been the SVP and COO of Instamart since August 2024. According to a Moneycontrol report, this move is part of a broader series of exits at Flipkart, which is working to reduce its monthly cash burn from $40 million to $20 million ahead of a potential public listing. The report added that Jain will work closely with Amitesh Jha, Swiggy Instamart’s CEO, who also joined from Flipkart in August 2024. Swiggy has recently hired several other senior executives from Flipkart, including Shalabh Shrivastava as SVP of Driver Org and Hari Kumar G. as SVP and Chief Business Officer for Swiggy Instamart. Swiggy Instamart added 316 dark stores between January and March 2025, increasing its network to 1,021 stores as it intensifies competition with Blinkit, Zepto, and Flipkart Minutes in the quick commerce segment. Instamart saw remarkable growth in Q4 FY25, with revenue surging by 115% to Rs 689 crore from Rs 320 crore in Q4 FY24. Overall, Swiggy reported Rs 4,410 crore in revenue and a Rs 1,081 crore loss in the fourth quarter of the last fiscal year (FY25).

Swiggy likely to take confidential filing route for IPO
Medial

Indian food delivery giant, Swiggy, is reportedly considering a confidential or pre-filing route to submit its IPO documents to the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). This option, introduced by SEBI in 2022, allows companies to protect their proprietary business information until they receive approval for a public offering. Swiggy's move follows recent preparations for a public listing, such as appointing a new independent director and converting from a private limited company to a public limited one. However, the company is still experiencing losses in its instant grocery business, Instamart, and trails behind competitor Zomato in food and grocery delivery. Swiggy is seeking a valuation between $12-15 billion, while Zomato's valuation recently reached $20 billion.

Swiggy has demonstrated strong financials ahead of its initial public offering (IPO). The Bengaluru-based firm reported a 36% jump in its operating revenue to Rs 11,247 crore in FY24, according to documents shared with its investors. Swiggy has also managed to reduce its losses by 44% to Rs 2,350 crore in the last fiscal year. The company’s revenue stood at Rs 5,476 crore in the first three quarters of FY24 with Rs 1,600 crore loss. It’s worth noting that these numbers aren’t audited. The Arc reported the development first. Swiggy said that its food delivery business grew 17% to Rs 6,100 crore while its quick commerce vertical Instamart registered Rs 1,100 crore gross revenue in the last fiscal year (FY24). When compared, Zomato’s overall revenue in FY24 jumped 71% to Rs 12,114 crore. This includes Rs 6,161 crore from the food business and Rs 2301 crore via the grocery business (Blinkit). Swiggy was neck and neck with Zomato in terms of food delivery whereas it was way behind in terms of grocery business. Unlike Swiggy, Zomato reported Rs 351 crore net profit in FY24 and the profitability also continued in the first quarter of FY25. For context, Blinkit had the highest market share among quick commerce players as of July, according to consulting firm USB. Swiggy Instamart was in second position followed by Zepto and BigBasket. Swiggy raised its last equity round in January 2022 when it also entered the decacorn club. Recently, it received strategic investments from Amitabh Bachchan Family’s office and Hindustan Composites. Swiggy reportedly filed IPO papers via a confidential route in May to raise up to Rs 3,750 crore ($450 million) via a fresh issue of equity shares and an offer for sale of up to an aggregate amount of Rs 6,664 crore ($800 million). The firm will soon file draft IPO papers with SEBI.
