If you live in Delhi, you already know grocery shopping has changed a lot. Earlier we used to depend on the local kirana store, waiting for the shopkeeper to hand over household essentials and maybe pack it in old newspaper. But now, with apps, everything is on our phone. The question is, which one works better for our everyday needs—things like cookware sets, religious decor, kitchen appliances, and those small kitchenware sale offers we keep hunting for.
I’ll start with Blinkit. Honestly, Blinkit is like that friend who is always in a hurry. They promise groceries in minutes, and yes, they actually deliver fast. If you suddenly realize you forgot curd or need non-stick cookware urgently because guests are coming, Blinkit can save the day. But sometimes I feel the prices are a bit higher compared to the neighborhood shops. And if you are someone who likes to buy crockery online or browse best cookware brands, the options can feel limited.
Now Zepto. They’ve been growing really quickly. Their 10-minute delivery promise sounds impressive, but I have mixed feelings. Once I ordered a set of kitchen appliances and they didn’t have the exact brand I wanted. It’s good for quick household essentials, sure, but for long-term needs like cookware sets or religious decor items, I find myself opening other apps or visiting local shops. Zepto is great for a sudden milk-and-bread situation, but not for when you’re setting up the kitchen properly.
Then there’s Aap Ka Bazar. This one feels different because it’s not just another app. It’s more like a mix of your traditional monthly grocery shop and modern convenience. They offer same-day delivery across Delhi NCR, which makes life easy when you’re stocking up on household essentials. And if you’re in Dwarka, you even get 10-minute quick delivery—imagine ordering cookware sets or some nice crockery online and having it at your door before you even finish making tea. Plus, they’ve got physical stores in Dwarka, so if you want to actually touch that non-stick cookware or check the quality of religious decor, you can walk in. There’s a local vibe here, almost like shopping in a trusted neighborhood store, but with the speed of an app.
Swiggy Instamart is another big name. I often use it when ordering food, so sliding into groceries feels natural. They’re reliable for everyday kitchenware, snacks, and household essentials. But personally, when I needed specific cookware brands or when my mom asked for kitchenware sale discounts, I couldn’t find much variety. Swiggy Instamart is good for last-minute shopping, but I wouldn’t depend on it for bigger purchases.
And then we have the bigger players—BigBasket and Amazon. BigBasket is like the old-school online grocery giant. You can get almost everything here, from religious decor to kitchen appliances. The only thing is, deliveries aren’t instant. If you plan ahead, it’s fine, but if you suddenly need cookware sets for a family get-together tomorrow, you may not get them in time. Amazon too has endless variety—you can buy crockery online, search best cookware brands, and get non-stick cookware easily. But again, the local warmth is missing. Everything feels a bit too big, too formal.
In the end, if I compare all of them, Aap Ka Bazar stands out. Why? Because apart from same-day delivery in Delhi NCR and lightning-fast delivery in Dwarka, they’ve got those physical stores you can rely on. That’s important in India. We still like to see things with our own eyes before buying—especially cookware sets, religious decor, or big kitchen appliances. Having the option to visit the store, feel the quality, and still enjoy online comfort makes it a stronger choice. For me, it’s about trust. Aap Ka Bazar gives you that balance—modern speed with the homely touch of a local shop.
