India's quick commerce sector is projected to reach a $40 billion market opportunity by 2030, with platform gross merchandise value expected to exceed $68 billion by 2031. Major platforms including Blinkit, Swiggy Instamart, and Zepto now collectively operate over 4,300 dark stores across the country. In Q3 FY26, Blinkit reported a gross order value of ₹13,300 crore, while Swiggy Instamart registered ₹7,938 crore. The rapid expansion is driving direct-to-consumer brands across categories like packaged food and personal care to redesign packaging and inventory strategies for high-frequency, 10-minute delivery channels nationwide.
