11 Factors in Our Instamart vs Dunzo Review

11. Investment, financial backing, and long-term runway

Financial backing affects product investment and long-term service continuity. Instamart benefits from Swiggy’s broader funding access and strategic prioritisation; industry reporting notes Instamart’s significant share of Swiggy GMV (25%+ cited in Miracuves, 2025). Dunzo secured early strategic investment, including support from major backers like Google in its earlier stages (ArtHnova); that backing helped it scale and pivot into different city-level services. The quick-commerce sector has continued to attract investor interest, though valuations and burn rates vary across companies.
