BENGALURU -- Indian food delivery startup Swiggy has raised $700 million to fuel its quick delivery business amid heightened competition from its publicly traded competitor Zomato, Reliance Industries, the Tata Group and Y Combinator-backed Zepto.
Invesco, which has invested about $8.8 billion in India through Invesco Developing Markets Fund, led the round round with participation from a clutch of new investors including Baron Capital Group and Sumeru Venture, Swiggy said in a statement on Monday. Existing investors Alpha Wave Global, Qatar Investment Authority, ARK Impact and Prosus also participated.
