Notably, Zomato witnessed a 2 per cent quarter-on-quarter and 17 per cent year-on-year growth in food delivery, driven by a broad-based "demand slowdown", it said in a letter to shareholders. The company's consolidated revenue from operations stood at Rs 5,405 crore, as against Rs 3,288 crore in the December quarter of the previous financial year. Total expenses also shot up to Rs 5,533 crore, from Rs 3,383 crore in the corresponding period of 2023-24.
