Overview
- Shivam Kukreja reports his grandmother collapsed at home around 8 a.m., and after delays with 112 he requested Blinkit’s in-app ambulance, which he says arrived within minutes.
- He says two responders treated her for low blood sugar, she regained consciousness in about 10 minutes, and they then transported her to a hospital.
- Kukreja recounts that the team declined payment and tips, describing the service as free, and he credited small Rs 1–Rs 2 checkout donations as enabling such efforts.
- Blinkit launched the rapid-response ambulance initiative in January 2025, describing vehicles equipped with oxygen, AEDs, monitors and emergency medicines, staffed by trained personnel, and run on a not-for-profit model.
- Current availability is limited to Gurugram, Manesar and select Delhi localities such as Greater Kailash and Lajpat Nagar, with outlets noting the account has not been independently verified.
