Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: InstaMandi at 4.5 against Desi Mart's 4.0. InstaMandi also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (58 vs 4). Desi Mart's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 43%) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
InstaMandi holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: InstaMandi has 58 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Desi Mart's written reviews are positive against 43% of InstaMandi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Desi Mart ships an update every 6 weeks, InstaMandi fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
