The Restaurant Challenge

The headline order value on Swiggy or Zomato is not what you take home. By the time platform commission (20-28%), payment gateway, GST, packaging, ad spend, and discount funding are deducted, your real payout on a ₹500 order might be ₹280 — and the food cost on it might be ₹150. That leaves ₹130 for rent, salary, utilities, and profit. Most restaurant owners do not run this math per dish — they look at the monthly settlement statement and hope.

Why This Matters

Online channels are 30-60% of revenue for most urban Indian restaurants now. Pricing for online without modeling the full deduction stack is the single most expensive mistake in modern Indian foodservice. Restaurants that calculate true online payout typically discover 30-40% of their delivery menu is loss-making — and they fix it within a quarter, recovering ₹50K-2L per month per outlet.
