On the occasion of World Idli Day (March 30), Swiggy released its analysis covering the period from March 30, 2022 to March 25, 2023. It provides interesting insights into the popularity of the south Indian delicacy.

The analysis also revealed that the most popular time to order Idlis is between 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., with consumers from Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Coimbatore, and Mumbai also ordering idlis during dinner time.
It also shows that plain Idli is the most popular variant across all cities, with a plate of two pieces being the most common order.
