Instamart to deliver Dagdusheth, Siddhivinayak temple prasad on Ganesh Chaturthi
Quick commerce platform Instamart will deliver prasad from Pune's Dagdusheth temple and Mumbai's Siddhivinayak temple to devotees' homes.
Devotees will no longer need to stand in long queues at temples this Ganesh Chaturthi. Quick commerce platform Instamart has made the sacred prasad of two of the country's famous Ganesh temples available on its platform. Prasad from the Dagdusheth temple can now be ordered in Mumbai and Pune, while prasad from Shree Siddhivinayak temple can be ordered in major metros across the country.
Pune's Shrimant Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati temple is an important spiritual site that draws lakhs of devotees every year. Modak is considered a very sacred offering at the temple, with large quantities offered to Bappa as naivedya. Making this prasad available through Instamart's sellers will benefit devotees who are unable to visit the temple in person.
The Dagdusheth prasad box will contain one modak, priced at Rs 50. To ensure the prasad reaches as many devotees as possible, each customer will be able to order only one unit per order. The Shree Siddhivinayak prasad box will contain six besan laddoos, priced at Rs 170. Prasad from both temples will be available on Instamart until September 18, 2026, or while stocks last.
Instamart Chief Business Officer Gautam Swarup said, "Festive season is when people turn to Instamart for the big and small moments of their celebrations. This includes sweets and festive items, essential puja items, and decorative items. Our effort is to provide customers not just convenience, but a variety of items that match the way they celebrate their festivals. Making prasad from famous temples like Dagdusheth and Siddhivinayak available on Instamart is an important addition to our Ganesh Chaturthi product range. This will make it easier for devotees to bring a part of this festival into their homes."
The temple prasad is part of Instamart's larger Ganesh Chaturthi product range, which also includes DIY Ganpati kits and 24 varieties of modaks, available in flavours such as saffron, cashew, mawa and cream.
The offer shows that quick commerce platforms are increasingly becoming part of festive occasions. Beyond everyday essentials, platforms are also delivering distinctive products tied to special occasions. Through a feature called Switch, Instamart is trying to make such distinctive products available on its platform, giving customers easier access to items not typically associated with quick commerce.
