India's e-commerce might explode to $80 billion by 2030.
This is powered by ultra-fast delivery wars.
But who wins the race?
Bernstein's fresh report on Eternal and Swiggy uncovers surprising shifts - slowing food growth, quick commerce battles, and hidden options.
Let’s discuss in this thread 🧵
Bernstein spotlights India's top 5% - 70 million urban consumers boasting $20,000 GDP per capita, controlling an $80 billion wallet by FY30.
Platforms like Eternal and Swiggy are morphing into lifestyle concierges, bundling quick commerce, food delivery, dining, and events to boost transaction frequency and wallet share through relentless innovation.
For context, this Serviceable Addressable Market (SAM) offers a 4x growth potential from FY25's $14 billion B2C GOV for these players.
Globally, markets consolidate fast:
Top 2-3 players grab 80-100% share in food delivery (97% in US, 99% in China) and 77-88% in e-commerce.
India's mirroring this, with scale in data and logistics trumping network effects.
Eternal leads here with its food delivery and quick commerce dominance, while Swiggy holds strong as #2, both leveraging 20-25 million unique daily active users to defend positions.

Thread🧵
1. A few years ago, Indian companies were small.
"20 years back, typically Indian companies were small, insignificant players... they were treated as raw material suppliers, not as strategic partners."
Cut to the 2020s, forget China plus one, many are now selling in China.
2. For the uninitiated, "China Plus One" strategy is a business tactic where companies diversify their supply chains & production by investing in suppliers from countries other than China to reduce risks and over-reliance on China.
This strategy gained momentum due to increasing costs, trade tensions, geopolitical uncertainties & the significant disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
