India, June 11 -- BigBasket Joins The Quick Bite Race

Tata-backed BigBasket is all set to become the latest startup to launch its 10-minute food delivery service across India. The quick commerce company is piloting a new service in Bengaluru and plans to expand it to 40 dark stores by July 2025. They aim to launch this service nationwide by the end of FY26.
