Gross order value (GOV) rose 22.5% YoY. Adjusted EBITDA margin (as % of NOV) improved to 5.5%, with absolute Adjusted EBITDA at ₹532 crore, up 24% YoY.

Deepinder Goyal stated, “Last year (FY26), 109 million Indians completed transactions worth over $10 billion through Blinkit, District, and Zomato. The company I accidentally started now touches how India eats, shops, and goes out. But it took us 18 years to get to $10 billion (per year).”

Meanwhile, Albinder Dhindsa said, “Between FY23 and FY26, Blinkit's net order value (NOV) grew at 104% CAGR. Growth rates are now naturally moderating off a much larger base. Over the next three years, NOV growth CAGR should easily be north of 60%.”

He added, “Quick commerce today is still concentrated in the top 15-20 cities and in a relatively narrow set of categories. The headroom for growth on geography, assortment, and frequency is substantial.”
