Working out profit when you sell on Flipkart

The kinds of charges to look for, and how to turn them into a profit figure.

Independent site, not connected with Flipkart. No Flipkart fee or rate is stated here; read them on the official page: seller.flipkart.com. Fee names are general and may change.

How selling works here

Flipkart is a marketplace where sellers list products and orders are collected and delivered through the platform logistics or the seller own shipping.

The fees to expect

Look for a commission on the sale value, a fixed fee per order, a collection fee for payment handling, and a shipping fee that depends on weight and distance.

What to look up before you list

Write down: the commission table for your category, the weight slab and the zone used for the shipping fee, the return and cancellation charges, and the settlement period.

Fill the calculator in this order

  1. Cost of the unit and packaging, from your own books.
  2. Commission and other percent fees, from the rate card.
  3. Fixed fee and shipping, from the charges for your weight and area.
  4. GST or sales tax on the product and on the fees, from your tax adviser.
  5. Return rate and loss per return, from your last few weeks of orders or from similar products.
  6. Advertising per order, from your ad report.

Then open the profit calculator and compare the profit with what the platform pays you in the first settlement. If they differ, find the line that explains the difference.
