Merchants on Flipkart have faced numerous hurdles while making sales on the company's marketplace, to the extent that some of them have quit the portal.
Some of these challenges include the company's allegedly discriminatory policies towards merchants, the lack of a skilled logistics service, and consumer returns that are a consequence of customer fraud.
