According to recent data accessed by business intelligence platform Tofler, Flipkart India Private Limited, which is owned by Walmart, experienced a significant increase in consolidated losses to Rs 5,189 crore in the financial year that ended in March 2025. When approached for comment on these financials, Flipkart did not provide a response. In the preceding financial year, the company had reported losses of Rs 4,248.3 crore.
Despite this loss, Flipkart India did see a growth in consolidated revenue from operations, which rose by 17.3 per cent to Rs 82,787.3 crore in FY25, up from Rs 70,541.9 crore in FY24. While this may seem like a positive sign, the company's total expenses also rose by 17.4 per cent to Rs 88,121.4 crore during the same fiscal year.
The main driver of these expenses was the purchase of stock-in-trade, which saw a significant increase to Rs 87,737.8 crore in FY25, compared to Rs 74,271.2 crore in the previous year. Additionally, the company also saw a 57 per cent jump in finance costs, which amounted to about Rs 454 crore in FY25.
On a separate note, Flipkart Internet Private Limited, the entity responsible for operating the e-commerce marketplace, reported a decrease in losses to Rs 1,494.2 crore in FY25, as per the documents shared by Tofler. This is a considerable improvement from the consolidated loss of Rs 2,358.7 crore in FY24.
Moreover, the company's losses on a standalone basis also decreased to Rs 1,568.6 crore in FY25, compared to Rs 2,296.2 crore in FY24. Tofler also mentioned that Flipkart Internet Private Limited reported a revenue of Rs 20,746 crore in the financial year 2024-25, representing a 14 per cent increase from the previous year.
In terms of expenses, the company's total expenditure for the fiscal year was reported as Rs 22,315 crore. On a consolidated basis, the revenue also showed a growth from Rs 18,241.6 crore in FY24 to Rs 20,807.4 crore in the reported fiscal year.
It is worth noting that the Indian e-commerce giant has been making significant strides in the market, with its recent performance being a testament to its growth. However, the company still faces challenges, as seen in its widening losses and increasing expenses. As Flipkart continues to expand its operations, it remains to be seen how it will navigate these financial hurdles and maintain its position as a leading player in the e-commerce industry.
