That pegs the Bengaluru-based company's fair value at around $8.3 billion, up from $7.85 billion.
However, this is still lower than Swiggy's peak valuation of $10.7 billion, at which it raised a $700 million round in January 2022.
For comparison, listed rival Zomato Ltd. is trading at a market capitalisation of Rs 1.11 lakh crore, or about $13.4 billion, as of 12 p.m. on Thursday.
Swiggy's food delivery business has turned profitable, Chief Executive Officer Sriharsha Majety said in May.
"As of March 2023, Swiggy's food delivery business has turned profitable (after factoring in all corporate costs, excluding employee stock option costs)... Swiggy has become one of the very few global food delivery platforms to achieve profitability in less than nine years since its inception," Majety wrote in a blog post then.
As of FY22, Swiggy's loss climbed to Rs 3,628.9 crore, with revenue of about Rs 5,704.9 crore. As per long-time backer Prosus, Swiggy posted a loss of nearly $556 million, or about Rs 4,630 crore, for the calendar year 2022, which makes up a large portion of FY23.
