Swiggy just dropped its Q4FY25 performance update—and let’s just say, there’s a lot to chew on (pun intended). From food delivery gains to Instamart’s supercharged growth, the company’s numbers are serving up some real momentum.
Let’s break it down in a simple, easy-to-digest format.
The Headline Numbers: Food and Grocery
Food Delivery GOV Growth | ↑ 18% YoY | — | Driven by more users, orders, and higher ticket sizes |
Contribution Margin (CM) | 7.8% | 7.4% | A nice 40 bps bump |
EBITDA Margin (% of GOV) | 2.9% | — | Leaner, more profitable |
Instamart GOV Growth | ↑ 101% YoY ↑ 20% QoQ | — | Explosive growth! |
New Stores (Instamart) | 316 | — | Rapid expansion |
Revenue Growth (Consolidated) | ↑ 44% YoY | — | Largely led by Instamart |
Food Delivery: Still Swiggy’s Bread and Butter
Swiggy’s food delivery game is staying strong. With a Gross Order Value (GOV) jump of 18% year-on-year, the growth was driven by:
-
More people ordering (hello, Monthly Transacting Users!)
-
Customers ordering more frequently
-
A higher Average Order Value (AOV)
And it’s not just about more orders—it’s about better margins too. Swiggy pulled off a Contribution Margin (CM) of 7.8%, which is higher than the 7.4% in the previous quarter. That’s a big deal in this space. It also translated into an EBITDA margin of 2.9% as a percentage of GOV—meaning the business is not just growing, it's becoming more efficient too.
Instamart: From Groceries to Growth Engine
Now, let’s talk about Swiggy’s quick commerce play—Instamart. This segment is clearly having its moment, with GOV growing a massive 101% YoY and 20% QoQ.
What's fueling that growth?
-
316 new stores opened during Q4
-
Continued focus on customer acquisition
-
Smart scaling in high-demand areas
Here’s a quick visual snapshot:

That said, all this expansion comes at a cost. Instamart’s profitability has taken a bit of a hit due to high customer acquisition and rapid store rollouts. But that’s par for the course in quick commerce.
The Big Picture: Swiggy’s Strategy and What’s Next
Swiggy’s keeping its foot on the pedal. The analysts have retained a “BUY” rating, and they’ve even revised the target price upward to ₹415 (from ₹400 earlier). That’s a clear vote of confidence.
Here’s why:
-
Solid 18% CAGR expected in food delivery GOV over FY25–28
-
Smart scaling with improving margins
-
High-growth potential from Instamart, despite short-term losses
A Quick Word on Risks
Of course, it’s not all smooth sailing. A couple of things to watch out for:
-
Instamart’s losses could continue near-term thanks to tough competition and expansion costs.
-
Margins in food delivery could face pressure if costs go up or user growth plateaus.
The Verdict
Swiggy’s Q4 results clearly show a company that’s scaling smartly, balancing growth with improving margins. Whether it’s your go-to app for biryani or bananas, the business side of Swiggy is cooking up a strong comeback.
