The reason behind several Blinkit stores not being available is due to Zomatos changes in the delivery partner payout structure to address the needs of delivery partners, improve customer experience and reduce cancellation/ order rejection frauds by few delivery partners in the system

The company also added that it had to shut down some stores for a few days to ensure the safety of its employees at stores and the delivery partners. But, most of the stores have now resumed operation.
