Our India infrastructure crawls Swiggy, Zomato, and ONDC, cross-references FSSAI FoSCoS for licence data, extracts Hindi and regional language names, and normalizes all data to one clean schema.

03
API delivery in JSON

Query structured JSON via REST API with INR pricing, FSSAI numbers, veg/non-veg flags, and bilingual fields as standard. Pull bulk CSV/JSON exports or set up webhooks for live change events.

Frequently Asked Questions

What food data can you scrape across India?
We scrape restaurant listings, full menu items, prices in INR, FSSAI licence numbers and status, vegetarian/non-vegetarian flags (FSSAI green/brown dot system), Jain food classification, nutritional information, allergen data, delivery platform listings (Swiggy, Zomato, ONDC), customer ratings, operating hours, and geo-coordinates with PIN code precision across all 28 Indian states, 8 union territories, and 600+ cities. Grocery product data from BigBasket, Jiomart, Swiggy Instamart, Blinkit, and Zepto is available on Growth and Enterprise plans.
Does your India food data include FSSAI licensing information?
Yes. FSSAI (Food Safety and Standards Authority of India) licence data is a first-class field in our India schema. We capture the 14-digit licence number, current status (Active/Expired/Suspended/Cancelled), licence type (Registration, State, Central), and expiry date. Our pipeline cross-references the FSSAI FoSCoS portal and matches licence records to restaurant entries automatically. Enterprise plans include monitoring alerts when licences change status or approach expiry.
Do you scrape Swiggy and Zomato data in India?
Yes. We scrape live menu data, INR prices, delivery fees, minimum order thresholds, ETA estimates, and restaurant ratings from Swiggy, Zomato, and ONDC-connected sellers across all major Indian cities and growing Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets. Platform-specific pricing in INR is a standard field, updated near-real-time on Growth and Enterprise plans. This enables you to track Swiggy vs Zomato price spreads per restaurant, per item, and per city.
Does your data include veg, non-veg, and Jain food flags?
Yes. Vegetarian/non-vegetarian classification is a first-class field following FSSAI's mandatory green dot (veg) and brown dot (non-veg) labelling system. We also provide Jain food flags (excludes root vegetables including onion, garlic, potato, and carrot), eggetarian flags (vegetarian plus eggs), and vegan flags as separate classification fields. These are among the most important dietary data fields for India-facing apps given the country's enormous vegetarian population.
Can I filter data by specific Indian cities or PIN codes?
Absolutely. Geographic filtering is a first-class feature. You can scope data collection to a specific state (e.g., Maharashtra), city (Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur), district, or individual 6-digit PIN code. City-tier filtering (Metro, Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3) is also available, enabling you to run targeted food intelligence for specific market segments — for example, tracking Tier 2 city cloud kitchen growth separately from metro markets.
Do you cover cloud kitchens and dhabas, not just formal restaurants?
Yes. Our outlet_type field classifies each establishment as a Full Service Restaurant, Quick Service Restaurant (QSR), Dhaba, Cloud Kitchen, Tiffin Service, Mess, Food Stall, or Dark Kitchen. Cloud kitchens — which represent a rapidly growing share of Swiggy and Zomato listings — are tracked with the same completeness as physical restaurants, including virtual brand names, FSSAI licence status, and menu data.
Are prices and taxes (GST) clearly separated?
Yes. Our India schema includes a gst_status field specifying whether listed INR prices include GST (applicable at 5% for restaurants with AC seating, 0% for non-AC) and captures platform fees and IGST charged by Swiggy and Zomato as separate fields. This is critical for financial applications, B2B procurement platforms, and compliance tools that need to work with net vs. gross pricing in the Indian regulatory context.
Can I track historical food price changes in INR?
Yes. Growth and Enterprise plans include price history in INR going back up to 24 months. Each price change is timestamped with the platform, location, and item identifier. This enables analysis of India's food inflation trends, how Swiggy and Zomato platform fee changes impact consumer prices, festival and seasonal pricing patterns, and the spread between in-restaurant and delivery prices over time.
