Blinkit’s co-founder and CEO Albinder Dhindsa on Tuesday revealed what was ordered most on the quick commerce company’s mobile application on New Year’s Eve<\/a>, drawing a sharp response from comedian Kunal Kamra, who questioned how much average wages he paid to his delivery partners in 2024.<\/p>\n

In a post on X, he said Zomato-backed Blinkit<\/a>, which claims it delivers items within 10 minutes, received the highest-ever orders in a day, the highest OPM (orders per minute), the highest OPH (orders per hour) and the highest total tips given to delivery partners in a day.<\/p>\n

‘1,22,356 packs of condoms, 45,531 bottles of mineral water, 22,322 Partysmart, 2,434 Eno are enroute right now! Prep for after party?,” he posted.<\/p>\n

Kunal Kamra<\/a>, however, attacked Mr Dhindsa and said the quick commerce platform owners “exploit gig workers” and they “aren’t job creators”.<\/p>\n

They are landlords without owning any land, Mr Kamra, who was last year engaged in a fight with Ola founder Bhavish Aggarwal<\/a> over the after-sales and service quality of the company’s electric scooters, charged.<\/p>\n

While we enjoy the convenience of quick commerce I’d like my first tweet of 2025 to be about the dark side.<\/p>\n

Platform owners exploit gig workers & they aren’t job creators.<\/p>\n

They are landlords without owning any land.<\/p>\n

They don’t have a bone of creativity or innovation all\u2026<\/p>\n

“While we enjoy the convenience of quick commerce I’d like my first tweet of 2025 to be about the dark side. They (platform owners) don’t have a bone of creativity or innovation all they do is exploit people by offering them freedom that they can’t afford while giving them wages that can’t meet their aspirations,” he said.<\/p>\n

He alleged they are “thugs that are using data as oil without paying for the oil fields”.<\/p>\n

“Someday there will be regulation that humbles them,” he added.<\/p>\n

Mr Kamra also asked the Blinkit<\/a> CEO to “enlighten” the public with data on the average wages he paid his delivery partners in 2024.<\/p>\n

\n

Can you also enlighten us with data on the average wages you paid your \u201cDelivery Partners\u201d in 2024\u2026 https:\/\/t.co\/v0yBlvobCQ<\/a><\/p>\n

Mr Dhindsa was yet to respond.<\/p>\n

What Blinkit Delivery Boys Are Paid<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Blinkit<\/a> delivery partners earn up to Rs 50,000 per month with incentives and other benefits, according to the company’s website.<\/p>\n

Their payments are made every 7 days and they can be their “own boss” by choosing their work hours (4, 8 or 10 hours), the website says.<\/p>\n

The delivery partners, who should be 18 years of age or older, also get up to Rs 10 lac accidental and medical insurance.<\/p>\n

They also get a joining bonus of up to Rs 4,000.<\/p>\n

Blinkit<\/a>, a Unicorn based in Gurugram, currently serves in Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad, Mumbai, and other major cities.<\/p>\n
