Law student works for Blinkit, reveals Day 1 earnings: ‘A boon for people like me’

A law student named Kaval Desai has found a way to earn money alongside his studies by working as a part-time delivery partner for Blinkit. Desai shared his experience on X, revealing that he earned ₹149 on his first day by completing six deliveries in just two hours. He used his Ather electric scooter, which saved him from any petrol costs as he charged the scooter at home.

Desai continued working for an entire day, delivering 19 orders in about 6.5 hours and earning ₹508, including a ₹75 incentive and a ₹100 bonus for achieving his target. He credited Blinkit for providing a convenient and efficient way to support his college expenses. However, Desai had to stop working due to his commitment to studies and a low battery on his electric scooter.

His posts sparked a discussion about the challenges faced by those who rely on delivery work to support themselves or their families, with some users expressing skepticism about the feasibility of earning such amounts and others offering words of encouragement and sharing their own experiences in delivery jobs.
