As quick commerce platforms in India shift their focus from aggressive user acquisition to unit economics and profitability, the era of unconditional "free delivery" has effectively come to an end. The baseline \*\*Minimum Order Value (MOV)\*\* required to unlock free delivery across the major quick commerce apps has tightened, converging significantly. The breakdown of the minimum order values, delivery fees, and hidden charges across India's top quick commerce platforms is structured below. --- ### Quick Commerce MOV & Fee Structure Comparison | Platform | Minimum Order Value (for Free Deli

In 2026, \`quick commerce platforms in India have largely moved away from a strict "minimum order value" (MOV) to place an order\`. Instead, they utilize \*\*small cart charges\*\* and \*\*delivery fee thresholds\*\* to ensure profitability on low-value transactions. Most platforms allow you to order items as cheap as ₹50–₹100, but you will pay significantly higher fees unless your order exceeds a certain amount. (https://www.angelon
