According to a Bloomberg report, Eternal Ltd. and Swiggy Ltd. face a new threat from e-commerce giants Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Walmart Inc.'s (NYSE: WMT) Flipkart, as they plan to enter India's 10-minute delivery market.

The announcement of Amazon and Flipkart's intention to launch 10-minute delivery services in India triggered a sharp sell-off in Eternal and Swiggy shares, wiping out over $15 billion in combined market value. The move comes after Eternal and Swiggy successfully built momentum around ultra-fast delivery.
