Swiggy, One of India’s leading food delivery platforms and a key rival to Zomato is set to increase the size of its upcoming Initial Public Offering (IPO).
According to recent reports, Swiggy plans to raise Rs 11,664 Crore ($1.4 Billion) through this public offering, up from the earlier projected amount. This decision comes as the company looks to capitalize on strong investor demand and favorable market conditions, which are seen as key factors driving the increased IPO size.
Swiggy’s IPO is expected to be a mix of both a fresh issue and an offer for sale, allowing the company to raise fresh capital for expansion while providing an opportunity for some early investors to exit. The funds raised will likely be used to bolster its core food delivery business, expand its grocery delivery service Instamart, and invest in other verticals such as Swiggy Genie and Cloud Kitchens. The increased IPO size reflects growing confidence in Swiggy’s long-term growth prospects, as the platform has demonstrated resilience in the highly competitive Indian Food Delivery Market.

This decision to boost the IPO size comes at a time when Swiggy’s competitor, Zomato, has already established its presence on the stock market, having successfully listed in 2021. While Zomato continues to dominate with a larger market share, Swiggy has been steadily closing the gap through strategic partnerships, innovative service offerings, and a focus on profitability.
Swiggy’s upcoming IPO will be closely watched by investors as the company seeks to strengthen its position in India’s rapidly evolving food-tech sector. The success of the IPO could further intensify the competition between Swiggy and Zomato, as both companies aim to capture a larger share of the booming online food delivery industry.
