Also, Ola too entered the grocery space with its Ola store. FE had broken the story in January this year.

Offered in select markets, Prime Now is a perk bundled with Amazon Prime membership, giving members who use the Prime Now mobile app access to one-hour (for a $7.99 fee) and two-hour delivery (no extra fee) windows for select goods. The move comes at a time when existing hyperlocal startups are in the midst of tinkering with their business models in order to make themselves financially viable. Surprisingly, Kirana Now, that lists itself as a seller has products priced at either more or equal to what other sellers are selling on its platform.
