This Week’s Spotlight Story
A deep dive into the headline that defined market conversations
Swiggy’s Q1 Losses Widen Despite Strong Growth in Orders and Revenue
Swiggy’s consolidated net loss jumped to ₹1,197 crore in Q1 FY26, nearly double last year’s loss of ₹611 crore. This came despite a 54% YoY rise in revenue to ₹4,961 crore. The bigger loss reflects continued investments, especially in quick commerce.
The food delivery business remained steady, with Gross Order Value growing ~19% to ₹8,086 crore. Swiggy added 1.2 million monthly transacting users, the highest jump in two years. However, operating margins dropped due to delivery incentives and appraisal costs.
Instamart, Swiggy’s quick-commerce arm, posted a 108% YoY GOV growth. Average order value rose to ₹612, driven by more non-grocery items and larger baskets. The unit added 41 dark stores in the quarter, taking active space to 4.3 million sq. ft. While contribution margins improved to 4.6%, EBITDA losses still stood at -15.8%.
Its Out-of-Home segment’s GOV grew 61% YoY, driven by dining offers and event-led demand. The segment maintained a positive EBITDA margin for the second consecutive quarter.
Swiggy’s losses are still high, but it is beginning to show operating leverage. More users are spending more across different categories on the platform. The company says it has passed the peak of quick-commerce losses. Going forward, it plans to pace its investments more cautiously while aiming for scale-led profitability.
