Rising crude oil prices and increased fuel costs in India are set to make online food orders more expensive. According to an Elara Capital report, platforms like Zomato and Swiggy are facing margin pressures due to the nearly 4 rupee hike in petrol and diesel prices. To offset these costs, companies are expected to increase delivery charges or platform fees for consumers. Both major players had already hiked their platform fees in March 2024. If petrol prices rise further by 10 rupees, the loss per order could reach 1.20 rupees, which will likely be passed on to customers. https://sambad.in/india-and-beyond/your-swiggy-zomato-orders-may-get-costlier-as-fuel-prices-rise-11858873 #creator program
