A seemingly ordinary food delivery request on Swiggy has taken an unexpected turn, highlighting the impact of rising onion prices and the power of social media. A Delhi resident, facing the soaring cost of onions, humorously requested extra onions from a restaurant through the platform. This unique plea quickly went viral on Reddit, capturing the attention of Swiggy's co-founder, Phani Kishan.
Moved by the customer's predicament, Swiggy Instamart decided to take action. The platform launched a one-hour flash sale, offering onions at a discounted price of just Rs 39 in Delhi-NCR. The limited-time offer, which took place between 7-8 pm, provided much-needed relief to Delhiites who were struggling with the rising vegetable prices.
