Flipkart Expands Lead Over Amazon in India’s Online Retail Market
Flipkart is expanding its lead over Amazon in India's online retail market, with its monthly active user (MAU) share rising to 35% alongside Myntra, according to data from Goldman Sachs and Bernstein. Flipkart's MAU growth accelerated to 15% year-on-year in July 2026, while Amazon's user base declined. Flipkart also maintains a consistent 10-percentage-point lead in gross merchandise value (GMV) since 2019. Meanwhile, quick commerce platforms are growing rapidly but contribute less to transaction value compared to Flipkart's engaged user base.
