Swiggy reported another unprofitable quarter this fiscal, weighed down by higher spending on its quick commerce arm Instamart, highlighting the tough road to profitability in rapid delivery.

Its net loss rose to ₹1,092 crore against ₹626 crore in the year-ago period. Its operating revenue was at ₹5,561 crore, up 54.4% year-on-year, surpassing ₹5,280 crore estimate of analysts surveyed by Bloomberg.
The firm is mulling raising up to ₹10,000 crore through a qualified institutional placement (QIP) and other permissible routes to fortify balance sheet and maintain flexibility in India’s fiercely competitive quick commerce market. This comes almost a year after listed rival Eternal Ltd raised ₹8,500 crore via QIP, and about two weeks after Zepto raised $450 million in private capital from California Public Employees’ Retirement System.

In India's car labs, Chinese models new benchmark
Walk into the vehicle development centre of any major Indian carmaker and you'll find dozens of rival cars stripped to their bones, engineers poring over every exposed circuit, nut and wire. Such 'benchmark-ing' helps companies understand why some models work while others don't, track technology trends, and plan their own vehicle roadmaps.
