Dear @jagograhakjago, Zomato and Swiggy are now getting out of control. Price of 1 kg Dhokla: Restaurant menu: ₹160 Zomato: ₹460 Swiggy: ₹460, discounted to ₹429 (for those who don’t know, garlic corn dhokla and garlic dhokla are the same thing) This is almost 187% of the actual price. This is unacceptable. I know they are charging for convenience, but users are already paying charges like delivery fee, platform fee, packaging, rain, etc. as the convenience fee. When you ask a question about prices or quality of food to Swiggy and Zomato, they are like, “We don’t control prices, it is set by the restaurant.” I know the restaurant sets the prices, but you take commissions too. So it is the platform’s responsibility to control the prices as well. I personally visited the place and bought 500 grams dhokla for ₹80, while on Zomato it is ₹250. Some people say, “Don’t buy from it, they run a business, not a charity.” By saying this, we are normalizing such practices.
