Flipkart, one of India’s leading e-commerce platforms, has announced plans to expand its innovative service, Flipkart Minutes, to additional cities across the country. Currently in its pilot phase, Flipkart Minutes is operational in Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Delhi, offering customers a seamless and time-efficient shopping experience.
Rajneesh Kumar, Chief Corporate Affairs Officer at Flipkart, shared the company’s strategic vision during a recent media briefing. He stated that the service would soon be available in more metropolitan and tier-2 cities, aiming to cater to a larger customer base in the near future.
“Flipkart Minutes is designed to bring convenience to our customers by enabling them to make purchases quickly and with minimal effort. We believe this service will redefine how people shop online, and we are excited to extend it to more cities across India,” Kumar said.
Flipkart Minutes is an innovative shopping solution where customers can shop for essential products and services within a limited, fast-paced window of time. It aims to meet the growing demand for convenience in online shopping, especially in urban areas where time is a premium.
Kumar also discussed the company’s outlook for the future of India’s e-commerce industry. He predicted that by 2028, India’s e-commerce market would account for 12% of the country’s total retail market, a significant increase from the current share. As internet penetration and digital payment adoption continue to rise, Flipkart is poised to capture a larger portion of the growing market, he added.
“This is an exciting time for the e-commerce industry in India. We are witnessing a rapid transformation, and Flipkart is positioned to lead the charge as we work towards expanding our reach and improving customer experiences,” Kumar stated.
With continued investments in technology and infrastructure, Flipkart aims to further solidify its position as a dominant player in the country’s e-commerce landscape. The company’s expansion of Flipkart Minutes is expected to play a key role in driving customer loyalty and meeting the evolving demands of India’s fast-paced digital consumers.
