Brokerages pick Zomato over Swiggy in quick commerce bet

Zomato reported a multifold growth in first quarter profit at Rs 253 crore and an operating revenue of Rs 4,206 crore, as consumers continued to stay bullish on quick commerce.

The gross order value for its quick commerce business more than doubled year-on-year to Rs 4,923 crore.

The company is banking on improved gross margins, delivery fee, and advertising income to boost its take rate, which refers to how much money the company stands to make on every transaction.

Zomato has come a long way since its public listing in July 2021 at a price of Rs 76 per share. In the last one year, its stock price has risen by 170%.

The financial performance of Zomato has also led to a 'buy' recommendation on the stock from various brokerage houses.
