As per a quick scan of GLassdoor, the average total pay range for a Zomato delivery agent ranges from Rs 2 lakh to Rs 6 lakh per year, which is inclusive of base salary and any additional pay. This additional pay comprises cash bonuses, stock, commission, profit sharing, and tips. 

How Are Netizens Reacting?

The video has quickly amassed over 69,000 likes and has sparked a range of reactions. Some viewers expressed shock and sympathy over the low earnings, while others questioned the authenticity of the content. One Instagram user commented sarcastically, "If you don’t work hard, how will the founder buy a Bentley," while another pointed out the disparity in pay by saying, "Meanwhile, Zomato is paying crores to software engineers."

Some comments reflected broader concerns about income inequality. "Do the same job in a Western country, and you’ll be paid a minimum of 10 times this. Our country is doomed, as long as income inequality persists. We’re not going anywhere," one user lamented. Others, however, were dismissive, with one person stating, "Don’t work. Nobody is forcing you."

The creator is known for sharing content that depicts his experiences working for various delivery and cab-hailing services. His Instagram bio lists him as a vlogger and YouTuber.

In related news, Zomato, a key player in India’s food delivery market, has recently acquired Paytm’s entertainment and ticketing division for Rs 2,048 crore. The acquisition, which was approved by the boards of both companies on August 21, marks Zomato's strategic move to expand its services beyond food delivery. 

Despite the acquisition, Paytm will continue to offer ticketing and entertainment services on its platform for the next year. However, customers will soon be encouraged to transition to Zomato’s new app, 'District,' which is slated for launch in the coming weeks. The app will provide a centralized platform for dining, movies, live events, and other lifestyle services.
