Zepto will not overtake D-Mart due to fundamental differences in their business models. D-Mart operates as a brick-and-mortar wholesaler, offering a vast selection of products at consistently lower prices, especially in bulk. In contrast, Zepto relies on rapid delivery, which often results in limited inventory and higher costs for consumers due to delivery and packing fees, particularly during peak hours. While D-Mart benefits from a well-established supply chain and in-house brands that provide deep discounts, Zepto's model incurs operational costs that are passed on to customers. Unlike the digital disruption seen with Netflix and Blockbuster, the grocery retail industry remains reliant on physical stores for bulk shopping and essential goods, making it unlikely for Zepto to disrupt D-Martā€™s market dominance.
