Does Swiggy charge delivery agents for branded kits? Viral post says yes!

A post has gone viral on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) claiming that quick commerce platform Swiggy may be charging their delivery agent for branded kits, including T-shirts, delivery bags, and raincoats.

How much do Swiggy delivery agents have to pay?

The Telangana Gig and Platform Workers Union wrote about the issue, tagging the company, saying, “Dear Swiggy, why are delivery workers being charged for a bag, raincoat and T-shirt that advertise your brand? If it’s promoting Swiggy, they shouldn’t have to pay for it.”
