Zomato Orders Just Got More Expensive, Here's Why

Zomato hikes its platform fee to ₹10 just before Diwali to cover operational costs during the festive season. This follows regular hikes since August, with each ₹1 increase generating ₹65 crore annually for the food delivery giant.

Zomato Orders Just Got More Expensive, Here's Why

If you're planning to order food via Zomato for your Diwali party, then get ready to shell out a little more, because ordering out just got a little pricier! Zomato has raised its platform fee to ₹10.

Zomato says this increase is necessary to cover the cost of maintaining its services, especially during busy times like Diwali.

But this fee hike isn’t new. Just a few months ago, in August, they introduced a ₹2 fee to boost margins and push towards profitability.

Since then, Zomato has been regularly raising this fee. In fact, every ₹1 hike helps the company rake in a whopping ₹65 crore annually!

So, will this increase affect your orders this festive season, or are you willing to pay a little extra for your festive treats? Let us know in the comments below!
