# BigBasket scraper alternative: what data exists

Rewalto holds BigBasket dark stores and the delivery times the app promised at pin codes, as dated history, plus daily price, MRP and stock readings at a small set of pin codes. The price readings cover far fewer pin codes than Blinkit or Zepto, so they are a sample, not a national view.

## The short answer

If you searched for a BigBasket scraper or a BigBasket scraper API, here is what Rewalto holds. It counts BigBasket dark stores, it holds the delivery time the app promised at pin codes as dated history, and it reads price, MRP and stock daily at a small set of pin codes. You can read these through a dashboard, an API or an MCP server (preview), and you pay credits only for records delivered.

The price readings cover a small set of pin codes, not every city. If you need BigBasket prices for every city, this is not that yet, and the block below shows exactly how many pin codes are covered and when. The [BigBasket data page](https://rewalto.com/data/commerce/bigbasket) lists every pin code held.

## What Rewalto holds for BigBasket today

These figures are read from the Rewalto data catalogue and the dark-store map when the page is served, not typed into it. If the catalogue cannot be read, the block says so instead of showing an old number.

The current dark stores and delivery-time history for BigBasket are read from the Rewalto data catalogue each time this page is served. The [BigBasket dark-store map](https://rewalto.com/data/dark-stores/app/bigbasket) lists them too.

Every store can be seen on the [BigBasket dark-store map](https://rewalto.com/data/dark-stores/app/bigbasket), and the delivery-time windows for every app are on the [delivery time by pin code page](https://rewalto.com/data/commerce/delivery-time-by-pin).

## Questions this data answers

- Where does BigBasket have dark stores, and how many open stores does each city have?
- Which pin code does a store sit in, and when was it first and last seen?
- What delivery time did the app promise at a pin code on a given day?
- For the pin codes held, what did a product cost on BigBasket on a given day, and was it in stock?

The first three are held for BigBasket across many cities. The fourth is limited to a small set of pin codes, so use it to test an idea, not to size a market.

## What is not claimed here

This page does not claim BigBasket search results, brand share of shelf or sponsored slots. The catalogue lists what is held for BigBasket, and only that is described above. Where BigBasket has named delivery areas that are not stores, Rewalto counts those apart from stores, so a store count here is a count of stores.

For apps with daily price and stock by pin code, see the guides for [Blinkit](https://rewalto.com/guides/blinkit-scraper-alternative), [Zepto](https://rewalto.com/guides/zepto-scraper-alternative) and [Instamart](https://rewalto.com/guides/instamart-scraper-alternative). For an app where only dark stores and delivery time are held, see [Flipkart Minutes](https://rewalto.com/guides/flipkart-minutes-scraper-alternative).

## Who this dataset suits, and who it does not

It suits a brand or analyst that wants to know where BigBasket operates and how fast it promises to deliver. The dark-store records give the city, the pin code and the dates a store was first and last seen. The delivery-time records give the shortest, typical and longest minutes shown for a pin code on a day, and the source of each reading.

It suits a developer testing a price idea on a small panel of pin codes, because the price readings carry the pin code and the time of each reading. It suits an AI agent that needs to answer “is there a BigBasket store near this pin code” from dated records.

It does not yet suit a team that needs a price index across all of BigBasket, a stockout alert for every city or a search rank. Prices are read at a small set of pin codes, so a decision that depends on national coverage needs another source for now.

## Check coverage before you build on it

Three checks take a few minutes. First, read the date beside each figure, because dark stores are counted by sweeps and the count is a recent picture, not a live one. Second, read the window of the delivery-time history; it covers specific days and cannot show a long trend. Third, read the pin codes in the price readings. A pin code that is not in the list was not read, which means unknown, never out of stock or cheap.

If the answer matters to a decision, keep the date and pin code beside the number when you pass it on, and check the dark-store map for the pin code before you tell anyone that BigBasket does or does not serve it.

## How BigBasket coverage differs from other quick-commerce apps

For Blinkit and Zepto, Rewalto reads prices and stock by pin code every day, at a much larger set of pin codes. BigBasket is covered mainly through its dark stores and delivery-time history, with price readings at a small set of pin codes. If you are building a cross-app comparison, you can set dark-store footprints and promised delivery times side by side for every app, but a price comparison that includes BigBasket should be limited to the pin codes it is read at and labelled as a sample.

Delivery-time windows differ by app and by source. The delivery time page lists each app with its window, so you can see which apps have readings on the same pin code and day before you compare them. Where they do not overlap, leave the cell empty rather than filling it from another day.

When BigBasket coverage grows, this page changes with the catalogue, because its figures are read live. The date beside each figure is the date the catalogue gives, not a date written into the page.

## Why teams look for a BigBasket scraper

Most people who search for a scraper want an answer. A brand wants to know whether its products are listed on BigBasket in the cities it sells in. An analyst wants a price series to set beside a promotion. A developer wants a source for an AI agent that answers “what does this cost on BigBasket near me”. Each needs dated records tied to a place.

BigBasket serves a pin code from a store or a delivery area, so the same search can show different products and prices in different places. A reading with no pin code cannot be checked or compared with tomorrow’s. A dataset can do that part once for everyone.

That is why the records here always keep the pin code and the time. A price or a promised delivery time is only meaningful for the place and moment it was shown, and a dataset that drops either one cannot be used to answer a question about a city.

## The work a scraper keeps asking for

Writing the first version is the small part. This is the list of jobs that remain once something is collecting. We do not describe how to collect from BigBasket here.

- Choosing pin codes that represent your market, and keeping the list current as the app grows.
- Noticing when the app changes its pages, before a week of empty or wrong rows reaches a report.
- Telling a product that is out of stock from one that was simply not read.
- Matching the same product across days when its title, pack or image changes.
- Storing every reading with its time and place, so a number can be traced back.
- Keeping the collection within the terms of use of the sites it reads, and deciding who in your company owns that question.

Each is a standing task with an owner. A dataset moves them to the supplier, and your team keeps the part that is yours: deciding what the numbers mean for your products.

## How to get the data

You need an API key. The calls below read dark stores, delivery times and prices. Each returns records with their dates, and each charges only for what is delivered.

```
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $REWALTO_API_KEY" "https://api.rewalto.com/v1/data/dark-stores?platform=bigbasket&city=Lucknow"
```

```
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $REWALTO_API_KEY" "https://api.rewalto.com/v1/data/delivery-eta?retailer=bigbasket&pincode=560001"
```

```
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $REWALTO_API_KEY" "https://api.rewalto.com/v1/data/observations?retailer=bigbasket&pincode=560001"
```

```
rewalto data dark-stores --platform bigbasket
rewalto data delivery-eta --retailer bigbasket
rewalto data observations --retailer bigbasket --pincode 560001
```

AI agents can use the same reads as tools through the MCP server (preview). The [developer page](https://rewalto.com/developers) has the keys, the docs and the field list.

## What this data does not tell you

Store counts are what the app shows to shoppers, not company figures. Delivery times are the minutes the app promised on screen, not measured deliveries, and they are history for dated windows. A price is the one shown on the listing at that pin code and time, before coupons, bank offers, membership prices and delivery fees.

Rewalto is not affiliated with, endorsed by or partnered with BigBasket. BigBasket is a trademark of its owner. Rewalto's API serves what BigBasket shows shoppers, read from its public pages with the pin code and time of each reading. It is not BigBasket's own API or feed.

Read the [guide to coverage and freshness](https://rewalto.com/guides/check-dataset-coverage-and-freshness) before you build on any dataset, and keep the pin code and time beside every number you show to someone else.

## Questions

### Is there a BigBasket scraper API?

Not one that BigBasket offers. Rewalto's API serves BigBasket datasets that it collects itself: dark-store locations, the delivery time the app promised at pin codes as dated history, and daily price, MRP and stock readings at a small set of pin codes. It is not BigBasket's own API.

### Can I get BigBasket prices and stock from Rewalto?

Yes, at a small set of pin codes. Price, MRP and stock are read daily at the pin codes shown in the table above, each with its pin code and time, and the BigBasket data page lists them. They are fewer pin codes than Blinkit, Zepto and JioMart, so treat them as a sample, not a national view. Rewalto does not claim BigBasket search rank here.

### What BigBasket data can I get by pin code?

Dark stores with their city and the pin code each is seen serving, and the delivery time the app promised at a pin code on a given day. Delivery times are promises shown on screen, not measured deliveries.

### How fresh is the BigBasket data?

Dark stores are counted by sweeps, and the page shows the day of the latest count. Delivery times are history for dated windows. The price readings say how often they are read and when they were last updated, in the table above.

### What does it cost?

Credits pay only for records delivered, at the rate shown for each dataset before you read it. A read that returns nothing costs nothing, and every account gets 1,000 free credits a month.

### Does Rewalto work with BigBasket?

No. Rewalto has no relationship with BigBasket. The records are what the app showed shoppers, kept with the time and place of each reading.

## Start with the question you need to answer

Check the current data catalogue, then review the coverage and dates against your question. The research in an older guide does not establish that a service is available today.
