Zomato has entered Kantar's list of India's top 25 brands, signaling its evolution from a transactional food-delivery service into a recognized lifestyle brand with broader consumer resonance.

Why this matters

Zomato's top-25 entry follows its IPO oversubscription and a 19% platform-fee hike to Rs 14.9, showing it is leveraging brand strength while testing pricing power and consumer resonance.

Retail-brand signals are steady, with 2,078 signals logged over the past 90 days.
