BigBasket, Blinkit and Swiggy Instamart to deliver gold & silver this Dhanteras
Seshu Kumar, Chief Buying and Merchandising Officer at BigBasket, expressed the strategic importance of this partnership within the Tata ecosystem. “We have always been recognised as a strong player in food and perishables; however, with such collaborations, we hope that our customers see value in our extended offerings—whether it is gold and silver coins, electronics, or home appliances. This Diwali, Bigbasket is committed to fulfilling all our customers’ Diwali wish lists in just 10 minutes,” he stated.
Rising competition among quick commerce players
BigBasket isn’t the only platform offering quick delivery of gold and silver coins. Blinkit and Swiggy Instamart have also committed to delivering these precious items within 10 minutes. This growing trend indicates a competitive landscape for rapid delivery services, especially during festive seasons.
Dhanteras, the first day of the Diwali festival, holds great significance in Indian culture as it is considered auspicious for purchasing gold and silver. This tradition signifies the welcome of wealth and prosperity into households.
