The special offer is now live and runs until August 19th.
Raksha Bandhan is just around the corner and families are gearing up to celebrate the special bond between siblings. To make the occasion even more special, Blinkit, an online food delivery platform, has introduced a unique feature that allows international orders for the festival. With this move, individuals living abroad can send rakhis and gifts to their loved ones in India and be assured of speedy delivery within 10 minutes.
The special offer is active now and will run until August 19. During this period, users from six international locations – the United States, Canada, the Netherlands, Germany, France and Japan – can place orders to send rakhis and gifts to their loved ones in India.
Blinkit’s co-founder and CEO Albinder Dhindsa made the announcement on X and wrote, “Raksha Bandhan special – we have enabled international orders on Blinkit until August 19th. Folks living abroad can now place orders on Blinkit to send Rakhis and gifts to their siblings in India and we deliver in 10 minutes! Countries you can order from: USA, Canada, Netherlands, Germany, France and Japan.”

Reactions to Blinkit’s limited-time Raksha Bandhan feature were mixed. Some users expressed curiosity and asked questions, while others praised the initiative and appreciated the platform’s efforts. One user wrote, “Blinkit never disappoints us.” Another commented, “Great service.”
A third said: “Already ordered from Amazon from Japan. Could have started a little earlier. Hope this offer is back next year!” A fourth added: “Seriously? If so, you’re winning the world – one rakhi at a time.”
Founded in 2013 by Mr. Dhindsa, Blinkit has quickly grown into a leading quick commerce platform that is revolutionizing the way people shop and access essentials.
