- Offers laptops, monitors, printers from top brands.
- Service available in major cities like Delhi, Mumbai.
Blinkit, the quick-commerce platform known for delivering groceries and daily essentials in minutes, is now venturing further into the electronics segment. Blinkit CEO Albinder Dhindsa announced the expansion on X, revealing that users can now order laptops, monitors, printers, and more directly through the platform, with delivery promised in as little as 10 minutes.
“You can now get laptops, monitors, printers and more delivered in 10 minutes! We're expanding our electronics range to cover more use cases and have partnered up with leading brands in this category. We've got:
ââ Laptops from HP
ââ Monitors from Lenovo, Zebronics and MSI
ââ Printers from Canon and HP
Currently live in - Delhi NCR, Pune, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata and Lucknow. Most of these will be delivered by our large order fleet,” Albinder Dhindsa announced in a post on X.
The initiative marks Blinkit’s partnership with leading electronics brands, allowing customers to access a wider range of tech products conveniently. Currently, Blinkit is offering laptops from HP, monitors from Lenovo, Zebronics, and MSI, and printers from Canon and HP. Printer cartridges from HP and Canon are also available, with plans to add Epson cartridges in the near future.
Dhindsa stated that this service is currently live in major cities, including Delhi NCR, Pune, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata, and Lucknow. The deliveries, especially for larger items, will be handled by Blinkit's specialised large-order fleet. The company also hinted at plans to expand its portfolio further, bringing more brands and products to its customers soon.
Blinkit’s move to deliver electronics like laptops, monitors, and printers in just 10 minutes could be a game-changer for consumers, but it could spell trouble for small stores and authorised dealers. With this model, Blinkit eliminates middlemen, allowing customers to access products at competitive prices without the hassle of visiting physical stores. For businesses paying high rents and bearing hefty staff costs, this could mark a significant challenge as they struggle to compete with the convenience and speed of Blinkit’s service.
Blinkit Ambulance
The announcement of tech deliveries comes on the heels of another significant move by Blinkit. Last week, the platform launched a 10-minute ambulance service, starting in Gurugram. Users in the area can now book ambulances for emergencies via the Blinkit app. The company promises rapid response, with ambulances dispatched to reach users within 10 minutes.
While currently in its testing phase, the Blinkit ambulance service represents a significant leap for the platform. Dhindsa has indicated that this initiative is expected to expand across cities in the coming months, aiming to provide a critical service for emergencies.
