"The food delivery sector is still in its nascent stages in the country and ... more competition will only foster innovation and growth which will benefit the sector overall," Rakesh Ranjan, Zomato's food delivery CEO, said on Monday. Ranjan expects the company to maintain that pace for the next four to five years,"if not more" as he eyes additional growth from the launch of new restaurants.

Zomato has also been rolling out new features, including scheduled delivery, option to grab canceled orders at discounted prices, and a large order fleet that supplies food for gatherings of up to 50 people.
