Tata’s BigBasket plans to merge its BBdaily subscription service with its main app in the next few months to enhance its foothold in the burgeoning quick commerce market.

At present, BigBasket runs two distinct apps: BigBasket for standard grocery deliveries and BBdaily for subscriptions. The main app offers both 2-3 hour delivery slots through BigBasket Supersaver and 10-20 minute delivery options via BBnow.

BigBasket is simplifying its services by merging all offerings into one app, moving away from the previously fragmented approach of separate divisions.

The Indian scotch whisky market has experienced remarkable growth over the past decade. In 2021-22, the market surged by 60%, marking one of the most significant annual increases. Vijay Dev, Bacardi India’s category lead for whiskies, attributes this surge not only to rising demand but also to a qualitative shift in consumer preferences for whisky.

Reliance is planning to inject up to INR 3,900 crore into its FMCG division through a combination of equity and debt. This investment is aimed at bolstering its competitive stance against rivals like Hindustan Unilever, ITC, Coca-Cola, and Adani Wilmar, with the goal of securing a larger share of the Indian fast-moving consumer goods market.

Britannia Industries is in talks to acquire a majority stake in Kishlay Foods, a Guwahati-based manufacturer of western and ethnic snacks, biscuits, sweets, potato chips, noodles, and tea, valued at around INR 600-700 crore, according to ET, citing sources.

“The deal is currently in the due diligence stage,” said one of the executives. Established in 2001 by Sandeep Bajaj and Krishna Bajaj as a biscuit manufacturer, Kishlay Foods has evolved into “one of the largest snack food producers in Northeast India,” featuring brands such as Non-Stop, Kishlay, and Mamooz, according to its website.

Tracxn’s valuation report on Kishlay Foods indicates that the company achieved annual revenue of $41.8 million (around INR 350 crore) for the fiscal year ending March 2023.

ONDC onboards over 6 lakh sellers, enables 1.2 Cr orders per month

ONDC

The government-run Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) is currently facilitating over 1.2 crore orders each month, with more than six lakh sellers active on the platform.

ONDC received the prestigious gold award for ‘Application of Emerging Technologies in Citizen-Centric Services’ at the National Awards for e-Governance (NAeG) ceremony.

Empowering Diverse Sellers:

The network is empowering a wide variety of sellers, including lakhs of small businesses, artisans, women entrepreneurs, farmers, and street vendors, enabling them to compete effectively and reach a broader audience.

According to the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, “ONDC operates with a startup mindset and a government-scale approach, adapting swiftly to changing market dynamics. It is driven by a team of technocrats and guided by the experienced ONDC Advisory Council.”

With its interoperable, unbundled, and decentralised design, ONDC breaks down a complex system into discrete microservices that different players can offer separately, resulting in positive outcomes for all. This architecture fosters trust in the e-commerce ecosystem.

ONDC is enhancing its capabilities to achieve deeper and more extensive integration with key government platforms.

The ministry added, “ONDC will enable inter-locks and linkages across government platforms to serve a common set of beneficiaries and achieve unified objectives.” In July, ONDC reached 430,000 daily orders.

Expansion and New Categories:

The Network operates in over 609 cities and delivers to 1,200 cities nationwide. In July, ONDC introduced a new category for auto components and accessories, featuring sellers like Ess Aay Automotive (Hero Genuine).

ONDC recorded a 21 per cent month-on-month increase in transactions, reaching 12 million in July compared to 10 million in June. On June 30, during the T20 World Cup finals, the network processed 374,000 orders in a single day.
