Reports also suggest that the company might soon file its draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) with the <keyword id="19901204" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Securities-and-Exchange-Board-of-India" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Securities and Exchange Board of India" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Securities and Exchange Board of India">Securities and Exchange Board of India</keyword> (Sebi), potentially launching its IPO as early as this week. Meanwhile, Swiggy has been busy implementing several notable changes across its operations, probably to gear up for its IPO. <br /><br />From changing leadership to expanding Instamart’s reach, let us take a look some changes implemented by Swiggy in the last few months. <br /><br /><h2>Leadership overhaul<br /></h2><br />One of the most significant shifts has been at <keyword id="19939135" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Swiggy-Instamart" source="keywords">Swiggy Instamart</keyword>, the company's quick commerce arm. Swiggy appointed <keyword id="22954620" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Amitesh-Jha" source="keywords">Amitesh Jha</keyword>, a seasoned executive from Flipkart, as the new CEO of Instamart last month. This move marks the third leadership change for Instamart in just 18 months. As part of this transition, Phani Kishan, the outgoing head of Instamart, was announced to take on a broader role within Swiggy, overseeing the Central Growth unit and working closely with co-founder Sriharsha Majety on new initiatives.<br /><br /><h2>Expanding Instamart’s reach<br /></h2><br />Swiggy Instamart has also been on an expansion spree, recently launching in 11 new cities across India, including Rajkot, Thrissur, and Kanpur. This expansion marks a strategic push into Tier 2 and 3 cities, broadening its customer base beyond metropolitan areas. The platform, which offers delivery of daily essentials in just 10 minutes, also said in a press release that it has seen encouraging results in these new locations.<br /><br />In Mangalore, for example, a new store achieved 1,000 orders in a single day faster than many larger cities. This localised approach, featuring partnerships with regional vendors, has enhanced Instamart’s appeal and efficiency in serving diverse customer needs.<br /><br />"Users across India already recognise the convenience Swiggy provides," Amitesh Jha said in a press release and added, "The enthusiastic demand from smaller towns and cities has been incredibly encouraging. Our expansion into these new locations marks a significant milestone, allowing even more people to experience the ease of having thousands of products—from everyday essentials to electronics and toys—delivered in just 10 minutes from both national and local brands."<br /><br /><h2>Changes in management<br /></h2><br />Swiggy has also made notable changes in its management team recently. Himavant Srikrishna Kurnala, previously with Reliance Retail’s JioMart, was appointed as the head of product for Instamart earlier this year. His appointment is part of a broader strategy to strengthen the team ahead of the IPO. <br /><br /><br />Other key hires include Mayank Rajvaidya, who has been named vice president of fruits and vegetables, and Manu Sasidharan, who joined as associate vice president of the FMCG category. These additions come in the wake of several high-profile departures from the company, signalling a recalibration of Swiggy’s leadership structure.<br /><br /><h2>Policy changes for restaurant partners<br /></h2><br />Swiggy’s founder recently revealed that the decade-old startup partners with over 3 lakh restaurants today. And thus, when a policy change decision was announced that impacted restaurant partners directly, it made headlines. <br /><br />In a move to standardise its service fees, Swiggy extended its gross value service fee policy to restaurants in non-metro areas. This change, effective from August 14, involves charging a service fee on the gross value of orders, including GST and packaging fees. <br /><br />This adjustment was expected to lead to an increased commission for restaurant partners in smaller towns and cities. The policy shift aligns with the fees already applicable to restaurants in larger urban areas and reflects Swiggy’s efforts to streamline its revenue model.<br /><br /><h2>Converting into a public limited company<br /></h2><br />To facilitate its upcoming IPO, Swiggy also transitioned from a private limited company to a public limited company. Earlier this year, Swiggy updated its name to <keyword id="23191546" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="swiggy-limited" source="keywords">Swiggy Limited</keyword>, removing the term 'Private' to better align with its public offering aspirations. This strategic move was intended to prepare the company for public investment and enhance its market presence.<br /><br />As Swiggy readies itself for its IPO, these changes underscore the company's commitment to growth, innovation, and adaptability. The upcoming listing marks a significant milestone in Swiggy’s journey, reflecting its ongoing evolution and strategic realignment in the competitive food delivery landscape.<br />
