CCI Complaint Accuses Flipkart of Running a Secret Subsidy Pool to Favour 33 Sellers
mint - companies·Sunday, 12 July 2026
A new complaint before India's Competition Commission alleges that Flipkart channels tax and operational gains from its group companies into a 'recurring subsidy pool' that benefits just 33 preferred sellers. Those sellers then undercut independent sellers on price, the complaint claims. The allegation strikes at the heart of how India's e-commerce giants structure their marketplaces.
Why It Matters
Millions of small Indian sellers use Flipkart to reach customers. If the complaint is upheld, it could fundamentally change the rules of the platform they depend on.
