"The offering also uses Swiggy's 'Eco Saver' delivery mode to ensure cost efficiency while maintaining reliable service quality," it added. Speaking about the new initiative, Rohit Kapoor, Chief Executive Officer of Swiggy Food Marketplace, said, "At ₹99, this isn't just a price point—it's a promise. A promise that good food can be both affordable and accessible, especially for our younger customers. The 99 Store is our way of making sure daily meals don't burn a hole in your wallet. We've worked closely with our restaurant partners and delivery teams to make everyday meals more affordable without cutting corners." Not only Swiggy—Zepto Café also has a section where users can buy quick-prep items including Maggi, veg puffs, samosas, and bun maska on its platform priced under ₹99. Unlike Swiggy's 99 Store, Zepto Café is delivering food in under 10 minutes. Notably, on both platforms, the ₹99 meal refers to the item value only, not the total billing amount. For instance, via Swiggy's 99 Store, Business Standard ordered a 'Corn & Veggies Sandwich' with an item value of ₹79. However, the total billing amount was nearly double at ₹150. This included a delivery fee of ₹50 for a 2.5 km distance and GST of ₹21. In another case, when the item value was ₹99 and the 'Eco Saver' delivery mode was selected, the delivery charge was waived, but a GST of ₹26.75 was applied—making the total bill ₹126. Similarly, on Zepto, a 'Veg Puff' priced at ₹70 cost ₹156 overall after restaurant charges and GST (₹7.4), handling charge (₹12.99), small cart fee (₹35), and delivery charge (₹30).
