Swiggy & Zomato Payout & Profit Analyzer

About the Swiggy & Zomato Payout & Profit Analyzer

Swiggy and Zomato pay restaurants weekly, net of commission, payment fees, the GST on those fees, discounts you fund, refunds, ads, TDS and the GST they pay for you on the food — and the payout report lists all of it order by order. This tool reads the order-level payout reports you download from the Swiggy and Zomato partner dashboards (Excel or CSV, several weeks and both platforms at once, or a POS export with a platform column) and works out, for every order and every week or month, the gross sales, each deduction, the payout, the money you keep and your contribution after food cost.

It also rebuilds each payout from the report’s own columns and checks every order: payouts that do not add up, a commission or payment fee above the rates in your agreement, GST on fees that is not what it should be, TDS above 0.1%, TCS taken on orders whose GST the platform paid under section 9(5), refunds and penalties taken from you, cancelled orders that were never paid, and orders that lost money after their discount. With no file at hand, the quick estimate works out one average order from your rates.

Without a pass the result is a free preview: the payout summary in full, the count and amount of every check, the first rows of each table and the chart as a watermarked picture; every order, every check and the exports (Excel, PDF, CSV, copy) unlock with a Premium pass. Your files are read in your browser and never uploaded.

Common uses

• A restaurant or cloud kitchen checking each week’s Swiggy and Zomato payout before the money is spent.
• Finding the orders to raise with partner support: overcharged commission, wrong TDS or TCS, unfair refunds, cancelled orders never paid.
• Seeing which platform, offer and outlet actually make money after food cost.
• An accountant reconciling a restaurant’s aggregator receivables and its TDS and TCS credits.

What each line means

• Gross sales: the item total at your menu prices, the packaging charged and your own delivery charges, of delivered orders.
• Discounts you funded: promos, flat offs, freebies and brand-pack discounts the report takes from you. A membership discount (Zomato Gold, Swiggy One) counts as yours only when the payout shows it was taken from you; the platform-funded share of a discount is not your cost.
• Commission: the service fee, a % of the value the report says it is charged on (Zomato’s commissionable value, Swiggy’s chargeable on).
• Payment fees: Zomato’s payment mechanism fee and Swiggy’s payment collection charges.
• Other platform fees: long-distance, express, membership, call-centre and delivery fees you sponsor, less any discount or cap on fees.
• GST on platform fees: the tax the platform adds to its fees. Restaurant service is taxed at 5% only when no input tax credit is taken (Notification No. 46/2017–Central Tax (Rate)), so this GST is a cost.
• Refunds, compensation and penalties: what customers’ complaints and cancellations cost you.
• TDS and TCS: held back by the platform, but tax credits you claim, so they are added back to what you keep.
• Money you keep: what reached your bank, plus cash you collected yourself and the TDS and TCS you claim. Contribution: that less your food cost (your % of the item total), packaging and other costs per order.

GST on the food, TCS and TDS

For food ordered through Swiggy, Zomato and other e-commerce operators, the platform pays the GST on the restaurant service, not the restaurant: section 9(5) of the CGST Act and Notification No. 17/2021–Central Tax (Rate); restaurants in hotels with a declared tariff above ₹7,500 a unit a day are outside it. So the GST collected on your orders passes through, and the tool shows it only when the payout keeps it for you to pay.

TCS under section 52 of the CGST Act is collected on the net value of taxable supplies other than those under section 9(5) — 0.5% in total (Notification No. 15/2024–Central Tax) — so a restaurant order whose GST the platform pays should carry none. TDS on e-commerce sales is 0.1% of the gross amount (section 194-O of the Income-tax Act, 1961, cut from 1% by the Finance (No. 2) Act, 2024: Memorandum to the Bill; section 393(1) [Table: Sl. No. 8(v)] of the Income-tax Act, 2025); it shows in Form 26AS and you claim it in your return. Orders from before that cut are checked at the 1% that applied to them.

How each payout is rebuilt

Platforms write their reports differently: whether the payout column is before or after TDS, whether a membership discount or the GST on food is in it, whether deductions are written as minus amounts. For each sheet the tool tries each reading on the delivered orders and keeps the one that reproduces the most payouts within your rounding, says which it used, and lists the orders whose payout still does not match. A column that only totals others (Service fee & payment mechanism fees, Net deductions, Total Swiggy Fee) is read as a check and never added twice. When fewer than half of the payouts can be rebuilt, the column matches are probably wrong, and payout differences are not reported until they are fixed.

Week by week, month by month, platform by platform

Every figure is also shown for each week (Monday to Sunday, the platforms’ payout weeks), month or payout, for Swiggy beside Zomato, for each offer (so you see which ones lose money) and for each outlet or brand. Charges billed to the payouts themselves — ads, penalties, supplies bought through the platform — come from the additions and deductions sheet when you add it; supplies are shown apart, because your food cost already covers what you cook with them.

Limitations

• It reads the reports you download; it has no access to your partner dashboard and cannot fetch reports for you. PDF invoices are not read: download the Excel or CSV report.
• Column names follow the reports restaurants download, but platforms rename and add columns from time to time: check the matches under Columns, especially the first time.
• Order ids that Excel has turned into numbers like 5.12E+09 have lost their digits: download the report again and do not save it in Excel first.
• At most 50,000 rows are read from one sheet: split longer periods into several files.
• Food cost is your own percentage of the item total, not the cost of each dish; for dish-level costs, cost your recipes first.
• The checks show where to look. Your platform agreement, its statements and its tax invoices decide what is owed; this is an estimate, not tax or accounting advice.
