Frequently asked questions
Can I sell on Flipkart without GST?
GST is required for most categories. Sellers of exempt goods such as books can register with PAN, and rules for small intra-state sellers may allow relaxation, so check the current policy.
What is TCS on Flipkart sales?
E-commerce operators collect tax at source on net taxable supplies made through the platform. Sellers claim this credit in their GST returns.
Do I need a trademark to sell on Flipkart?
Not for generic goods, but brand registration on the platform typically requires a trademark application or registration, which also protects against copycats.
How are payments settled?
Flipkart settles payments to the registered bank account after deducting fees, as per its settlement cycle.
