Eternal (formerly Zomato), the food aggregator, experienced a notable 4.5% surge in its share price on Thursday, June 5, 2025. The stock reached an intraday high of ₹258.3 on the NSE, marking a continuation of its two-day rally, bringing its total increase to approximately 8%. This upward movement represents the highest share price level the company has achieved since January 16, 2025.
The rally in Eternal's share price was accompanied by significant trading volumes. A total of around 12.77 crore shares were traded on the NSE during the session, setting a new record for the highest single-day trading volume in the past 4 trading sessions.
As per the Morgan Stanley report, India’s quick commerce market's total addressable market (TAM) is expected to reach a substantial $57 billion by 2030, up from its previous estimate of $42 billion.
This revision is primarily driven by factors such as faster customer acquisition, expansion into new cities beyond the top metros, and stronger-than-expected gross order value (GOV) growth. The quick commerce sector is expected to play a significant role in driving the broader growth of the e-commerce industry in India.

To address the growing market, Eternal has demonstrated a strong commitment to expansion by adding 294 net new stores in Q4FY25, which marks the highest-ever net store addition in a single quarter for the company.
This contributes to the overall network of 1,301 stores, of which around 40% are relatively new and underutilised, having opened in just the last 2 quarters (216 stores in Q3FY25 and 294 in Q4FY25). In addition, the company has bolstered its operations by adding 1 million sq ft of new warehousing space to accommodate this rapid store expansion.
Despite this aggressive growth, the company has managed to improve its contribution margin from 3.8% to 3.9% of NOV (net operating value).
In conclusion, Eternal (formerly Zomato) experienced a notable 2-day rally, with its share price rising by 8%. On June 5, 2025, the stock surged by 4.5%. This marked the highest share price level since January 16, 2025.
