In today’s digital-first economy, many entrepreneurs are looking for ways to bring their products online. Platforms like Flipkart have made it possible for small businesses, manufacturers, and even individuals to sell across India with minimal setup.

But one question I get asked often is — “How do I become a Flipkart seller? Is it too technical or complicated?”

The truth is, it’s not. Here’s everything you need to know — in simple steps.

Who can sell on Flipkart?

You can register as a seller if you are:

  • An individual or sole proprietor

  • A partnership firm

  • An LLP or private limited company

The only essential requirement is that you must have a valid GSTIN and a bank account.

📄 Documents Required:

To register, you’ll need:

  • GSTIN (for tax compliance)

  • PAN Card (in the name of the individual or business)

  • Bank account details

  • Business address proof (like utility bill or rent agreement)

  • Mobile number & Email ID for verification

🛒 How to Register on Flipkart Seller Hub:
  1. Visit seller.flipkart.com

  2. Enter your mobile number and verify with OTP

  3. Add GSTIN, PAN, and bank account details

  4. Upload documents

  5. Create your product listings (photos, prices, inventory)

  6. Start selling once your account is verified!

🚚 Shipping and Delivery:

No need to worry about couriers or delivery partners — Flipkart manages this through its logistics network (Ekart). They pick up the product from you and deliver it to the customer.

Packaging material can also be sourced through the platform, making things smoother.

💰 How Do You Get Paid?

Payments are made directly to your bank account within 7–15 working days from the dispatch date.

You can track all transactions and orders in real-time on your Seller Dashboard.

📊 What About Tax Compliance?

Once you start selling, you’re required to:

  • File regular GST returns

  • Maintain accounting records

  • Report TCS (Tax Collected at Source) deducted by Flipkart

  • Stay compliant with e-commerce laws

As a Chartered Accountant, I help businesses with their entire setup — from registration and documentation to accounting, taxation, and compliance.

Starting on Flipkart doesn’t require huge investment or technical knowledge.
It requires the right product, basic compliance, and a willingness to begin.

Whether you’re a homemaker selling handmade crafts or a trader scaling your retail products — online selling is an open door.

💬 Have you ever thought of launching your own product online? What’s stopping you — the paperwork, the process, or the fear of the unknown?
