CCI dismissed a consumer complaint against Eternal’s Zomato, finding no prima facie evidence of anti-competitive conduct or dominance abuse in platform fees, delivery charges, menu-price differences or alleged drip pricing.

Why this matters

The ruling removes a regulatory overhang as Eternal scales growth: Q1 profit halved while Blinkit posted record operating profit, revenue rose 182%, and Blinkit targets 3,000 stores by FY27-end.

Retail-company signals are accelerating, up 1,074,600% QoQ.
