Swiggy narrows Q1 net loss to ₹791 crore as revenue jumps 37% YoY

Swiggy reported a consolidated net loss of ₹791 crore for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, narrowing from ₹1,197 crore in the same period last year.

Swiggy reported a consolidated net loss of ₹791 crore for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, narrowing from ₹1,197 crore in the same period last year. Revenue for the quarter surged 37% year-on-year to ₹6,812 crore, driven by growth in its quick commerce segment, according to livemint.com and economictimes.indiatimes.com.

The company’s quick commerce business achieved its contribution margin break-even target this quarter, with the overall contribution margin at -0.2% of gross order value (GOV), marking a 440 basis point improvement year-on-year. This performance helped Swiggy reduce its losses significantly while expanding its revenue base. The growth was supported by increased order volumes and operational efficiencies, the reports stated.

Swiggy’s improved financials come amid intense competition in India’s food delivery and quick commerce markets, where players are investing heavily to capture market share. The 37% revenue growth contrasts with the broader sector’s challenges in achieving profitability. Swiggy’s narrowing losses and margin improvements highlight its progress toward sustainable operations, setting it apart from peers still struggling to break even.

Swiggy’s next quarterly earnings report, expected in October 2026, will provide further insight into whether the company can maintain this trajectory of revenue growth and loss reduction as it continues to scale its quick commerce and food delivery services.
