1. Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Bhopal, Coimbatore, Indore, Mumbai, Mysore, Nagpur, Noida, Surat, Vadodara, Vijayawada: We are delivering here. However, due to high demand, we are booked for the next 7 days in many of these cities, therefore slots may not be currently available.
2. Ghaziabad, Gurgaon, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Kolkata, Lucknow, Patna: We are currently not operational but hoping to be operational in a day or two. In these cities too, we were affected the last few days by severe restrictions imposed on the movement of our staff and vehicles. However, we are in the process of getting our operations classified as essential services. Therefore, we are hopeful of resuming operations in the next day or two.
3. Chandigarh, Chennai, Delhi, Ludhiana, Pune, Vizag: In these cities, we are currently not operational, and we aren’t sure when well resume operations. In each of these cities, our operations are completely shut down due to severe restrictions imposed on our staff and the movement of vehicles. We have been trying to work with the local government authorities to get necessary permissions/permits to start our operations, but unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get the necessary help so far. Well, keep you updated when we get more information.
4. Kochi: We are currently not delivering in Kochi due to our operational constraints. We are trying to sort this out and should be able to resume services soon.
3. Flipkart
Flipkart has now resumed their grocery essential services, confirmed CEO Kalyan Krishnamurthy. He further said, “We are grateful for the clarification provided by the government and local state authorities on the functioning of e-commerce during the lockdown”.
