Quick Commerce in Delhi NCR: A Dark Store Analysis

Executive Summary

• The Delhi NCR region has an estimated 650+ dark stores when combining Delhi (330), key Haryana cities (Gurgaon, Faridabad), and key UP cities (Noida, Ghaziabad, Greater Noida).
• NCR is India's largest quick commerce market by total store count, but administrative fragmentation across three states obscures this in city-level rankings.
• The region employs an estimated 6,500-13,000 dark store workers, with monthly hiring demand of 1,000-3,900 positions due to high attrition.
