Executive summary
AI answer engines now help Indian households choose a grocery app, understand fees, check freshness, get refunds and decide between kirana stores and apps. We ran 25 questions across five categories with live web search. The run produced 375 citations from 234 unique domains.
Zepto leads on 40.0 percent and is named on 12 of 25 questions. Blinkit follows on 29.6, Swiggy Instamart on 25.6 and BigBasket on 22.4. DMart, the largest listed supermarket chain, ties fifth on 10.4 with DealShare, an app now close to shutting down.
The sharper finding sits in the sources. App store listings supply 34 citations, more than the apps' own websites, which supply 19. Look-alike blogs using DMart, Blinkit and Instamart names supply eight, and dmart.in is never cited.

Visibility score method: each question ranks five entities. Rank one earns 1.00 point, rank two 0.80, down to 0.20 for rank five. Scores are totaled across 25 questions and divided by 25. Every entity named is ranked, whatever its type.
Type shows what kind of organization each entity is. AI engines name regulators, coupon sites, shipping software firms, data scraping firms, legal sites and kirana apps alongside grocery apps and supermarket chains. All of them are ranked here, because all of them take up space in the answer.

Categories and why we chose them
We chose five categories that follow a household buying groceries: which app or store to use, what fees and memberships cost, whether food is fresh and safe, what happens when delivery goes wrong, and when to buy from local stores or in bulk.
| # | Category name | Reason for selection |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Choosing a grocery app | The first decision any household makes is which app or store to use. Answers about the best app, Blinkit against Zepto and Instamart, the cheapest app and DMart decide where the weekly basket goes, so this category carries the most commercial value. |
| 2 | Prices, fees and memberships | Quick commerce has added handling fees, small cart fees and memberships, and shoppers ask whether prices vary by user. These questions show who explains the true cost of ordering groceries, and whether regulators appear in the answer. |
| 3 | Freshness, quality and expiry | Freshness and food safety are the biggest worries about ordering groceries. Questions about produce, expired products, dark store hygiene, organic food and meat show whether engines rely on the apps, on regulators or on small specialist sellers. |
| 4 | Delivery, refunds and complaints | Speed and service decide which app a household keeps using. Questions about delivery speed, refunds for missing items, customer care, complaints and late night delivery show which sources the engines trust when an order goes wrong. |
| 5 | Local stores and bulk buying | Most Indian groceries are still bought from kirana stores, supermarkets and wholesalers. These questions test whether engines send shoppers to local stores, chains, wholesale clubs or apps, and who they name for bulk, budget and gourmet buying. |
Category 1 of 5
