Swiggy shares plunge 41 pc, trade below IPO price
Mumbai: Swiggy's stock has taken a sharp hit in 2025, falling by 41 per cent, so far, this year and trading below its IPO listing price since February 6. The drop reflects growing investor concerns over widening losses, rising competition, and uncertainty around the company's path to profitability. In the January-March quarter (Q4) of FY25, Swiggy reported a net loss of Rs 1,081 crore, a significant downward slide from Rs 799 crore in the same period last fiscal. This widened quarterly loss came despite an increase in order volumes and rising revenue, as heavy investments in its quick commerce segment continue to weigh on overall performance. The company's annual losses also surged, reaching Rs 3,116 crore in FY25, up 35 per cent from Rs 2,350 crore in FY24, according to its latest regulatory filings. Adjusted EBITDA loss stood at Rs 732 crore for the March quarter, driven by aggressive growth spending in Swiggy's quick commerce business, particularly through Instamart. While Swiggy's revenue rose to Rs 5,609 crore in the March quarter -- up from Rs 3,668 crore a year ago -- analysts remain concerned about the company's ability to control cash burn and turn a profit. Competitors like Zomato, through its Blinkit arm, have ramped up their presence in the quick commerce space, putting additional pressure on Swiggy's margins. Swiggy CEO Sriharsha Majety defended the company's performance, calling FY25 a 'year of many firsts,' highlighting the launch of new apps like Instamart, Snacc, and Pyng. He noted, 'Our food delivery engine delivered best-ever results across innovation and execution, driving category-leading growth and rising profitability in lockstep.' He also said the out-of-home consumption business became profitable in Q4. Despite these positive developments, the market remains sceptical. Swiggy has not regained momentum post-IPO and has spent nearly four months trading below its debut price. Brokerages note that while the core food delivery segment remains stable, the quick commerce division -- though fast-growing -- continues to be the main drag on profitability.

Swiggy shares in focus after Q4 losses double to Rs 1,081 crore
Swiggy shares will be in focus on Monday after the food delivery platform reported a sharp widening of its net loss for the fourth quarter. Losses nearly doubled to Rs 1,081 crore, compared with Rs 554 crore in the same period last year. However, revenue from operations rose 45% year-on-year to Rs 4,410 crore. The rise in losses was mainly driven by increased spending on Swiggy's quick commerce business, Instamart, amid intensifying competition from Blinkit and Zepto. The company ramped up investments in customer acquisition, dark store expansion, and marketing to defend market share, resulting in higher operating expenses. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like There are holes in her heart!

However, the company's consolidated adjusted EBITDA loss widened to Rs 732 crore, due to ramp-up of investments in Instamart. Food delivery business The food delivery business reported a 17.6% YoY growth in GOV, reaching Rs 7,347 crore. Adjusted EBITDA margins for the segment improved to 2.9% of GOV, compared with just 0.5% a year ago. Live Events The growth was supported by innovative offerings, including the premium subscription program One BLCK and faster deliveries through the Bolt service, which now powers 12% of all food delivery orders. Instamart Quick-commerce, which operates under the Instamart brand, continued its rapid expansion, with GOV growing 101% YoY to Rs 4,670 crore. The business added 316 new dark stores, exceeding the cumulative dark stores added over the past eight quarters, and expanded its service footprint to 124 cities. Despite the growth, Instamart's contribution margin declined to -5.6%, compared to -4.6% in the previous quarter, as Swiggy ramped up customer acquisition and network expansion. Adjusted EBITDA loss for Instamart rose to Rs 840 crore, driven by higher operating costs associated with new stores and aggressive market expansion. Out-of-Home Consumption Swiggy's out-of-home consumption segment turned profitable, recording a 42% YoY growth in GOV and achieving an adjusted EBITDA margin of 0.3% of GOV. On the user front, the platform's average monthly transacting users (MTUs) grew 35% YoY to reach 19.8 million, with 35% of users utilising more than one service on the platform. This multi-service usage has been a key driver of customer retention and growth. "FY25 was a year of many firsts for Swiggy, with the launch of new services like Instamart, Snacc, and Pyng," said MD & Group CEO Sriharsha Majety. The company said its focus on scaling Instamart, expanding its out-of-home consumption business, and improving efficiencies in food delivery are expected to remain key growth drivers in the coming quarters. However, the challenge of managing losses in the quick-commerce segment will be a critical area to watch. Swiggy shares price target As per Trendlyne data, the average target price of the stock is Rs 455, which shows an upside of 45% from the current market prices. The consensus recommendation from 21 analysts for the stock is a 'Buy'. ( Disclaimer : Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.
