Bengaluru-based food delivery aggregator Swiggy is reportedly testing a potential increase in its platform fee from โน5 to โน10 per food order. The move is seen as an effort to reduce losses ahead of its upcoming IPO later this year. Swiggy had previously introduced a nominal fee of โน2 in April, which was later expanded to all customers. The company's push to increase its user base aligns with its IPO plans and comes at a time when the food-delivery market is experiencing slower growth. Finding the right balance in platform fees is crucial for maintaining customer satisfaction and order frequency in this dynamic market.
