Business Overview
Confirmed- Blink Commerce Private Limited is the operating legal entity for Blinkit, India's leading quick-commerce app delivering groceries and everyday essentials from local "dark stores" in roughly 10 minutes
- Originally incorporated in 2015 as Grofers India Private Limited (an online grocery marketplace), the company rebranded to Blinkit in December 2021 and pivoted fully to the instant/quick-commerce model, and the legal entity was renamed Blink Commerce Private Limited around the same period (confirmed by an Indian Kanoon case record noting the "name change from 'Grofers India' to 'Blink Commerce'")
- Zomato Limited announced acquisition of Blinkit for approximately US$568 million in an all-stock deal in June 2022, completed in August 2022
- Zomato later rebranded itself Eternal Limited
- As of FY25, Blinkit reportedly operated in roughly 153 cities in India (Source: Wikipedia/company disclosures)
- Note: Blink Commerce Private Limited itself may represent only part of the broader "Blinkit" operating group — TheCompanyCheck lists it as "a subsidiary of Grofers International Pte
- Ltd.," an intermediate Singapore holding entity, while Tofler's company-network view places it alongside sibling entities such as Blinkit Foods Limited under the wider Zomato/Eternal group — so the standalone financial figures below should not be read as the entirety of the consumer-facing "Blinkit" business
Directors
Partial / conflicting| Name | DIN | Role | Appointed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Albinder Singh Dhindsa | 06912294 | Whole-Time Director, DIN 06912294 Blinkit/Grofers co-founder. 2) Rishi Arora; Director, DIN 07265212. 3) Ali Kausar Siddiqui; Director, DIN 08728174. 4) Kaushik Dutta; Director, DIN 03328890 also sits on boards of Ather Energy Limited, BlackBuck Limited, and several fintech companies per TheCompanyCheck. 5) Ruby Hemant Kumar Jain; Director, DIN 10908984. | - |
Financials
Confirmed- Standalone financials for Blink Commerce Private Limited, FY2024-25 (year ended 31 March 2025), Source: Tofler — Revenue ₹4,344.0 crore (up 126.94% YoY)
- EBITDA ₹(570.0) crore
- PAT/Net Loss ₹(929.0) crore
- Net Worth ₹1,838.1 crore (up 292.71% YoY)
- Borrowings: Nil
- Note a source conflict/scope difference: Wikipedia (citing Blinkit/Eternal group disclosures) reports Blinkit FY25 revenue of ₹5,206 crore (~US$540 million) — higher than Tofler's standalone ₹4,344 crore figure for Blink Commerce Pvt Ltd specifically, likely reflecting a different consolidation boundary (e.g., inclusion of Blinkit Foods Limited, ONDC/ads revenue, or other group entities not captured in this single company's standalone filing)
- Treat the ₹4,344 crore figure as the verified standalone number for this specific CIN, and the ₹5,206 crore figure as the broader "Blinkit business" figure reported elsewhere
Funding History
Partial / conflicting- Blink Commerce Pvt Ltd itself has not raised standalone external funding rounds as a private company since 2022 — it operates as a subsidiary within the Eternal (Zomato) group and its capital needs are funded via the parent group rather than independent VC rounds
- Historically, as Grofers, the business raised approximately US$1.06 billion across multiple funding rounds from investors including SoftBank, Tiger Global, Sequoia Capital India, and others (Source: Wikipedia) before Zomato's acquisition
- Zomato Limited acquired Blinkit for approximately US$568 million in an all-stock deal announced 24 June 2022 and completed 10 August 2022 (Source: Wikipedia)
Charges / Loans
Confirmed- 10 active/historical charges registered, all with ICICI Bank Limited as charge holder, total value ₹18.7 crore (Source: Tofler)
- Individual charge amounts and dates: ₹10.0 Cr (06 Dec 2025), ₹3.0 Cr (05 Dec 2025), ₹0.2 Cr (29 Oct 2025), ₹0.0 Cr [nominal] (29 Oct 2025), ₹0.2 Cr (13 Oct 2025), ₹1.5 Cr (13 Oct 2025), ₹0.0 Cr [nominal] (10 Oct 2025), ₹1.6 Cr (22 Sep 2025), ₹2.0 Cr (11 Jul 2025), ₹0.1 Cr (04 Jun 2024)
- Despite these registered charges, the company's FY25 balance sheet shows Nil borrowings per Tofler — likely working-capital/overdraft-type facilities rather than term debt
