Digital-first healthcare startup DavaNinja has launched an on-demand medicine delivery service in Mumbai.

“Aiming to reduce the delivery time from 60 to 30 minutes is more than just a logistical upgrade. It’s a healthcare improvement. With DavaNinja, we’re addressing that urgency while ensuring full prescription fulfillment,” said Gaurav Lekhrajani, CEO, DVNJ Health Tech Private Limited.
The platform uses data-backed order routing and smart fulfilment systems to manage deliveries through its network of pharmacies and trained pharmacists, the startup added.
Further, the app aims to address the frequent urgency associated with medical needs by ensuring timely and complete prescription deliveries.
The rapid growth of quick commerce giants in the healthcare space is transforming how medical products reach consumers. Companies like Swiggy Instamart, Blinkit, and Flipkart Minutes are no longer limited to delivering groceries or restaurant orders; they are now integral to a wider healthcare ecosystem.
This shift towards fast medicine delivery is redefining consumer expectations, improving access to healthcare products, and boosting customer retention.
As on-demand healthcare services gain traction in India, the launch of DavaNinja contributes to a growing wave of tech-enabled solutions designed to address critical gaps in accessibility and timely medical intervention.
