Flipkart marketing · Answer
The short answer
Flipkart settles to your registered bank account on a recurring cycle. Flipkart's own seller fees page says the payment cycle starts when your product is picked up, and that you can get paid in as fast as 3 days, depending on your seller tier. The payment is net: commission, fixed fee, shipping, collection fee, GST on those, plus any adjustments for returns and claims are deducted before the money moves.
Payments run on a cycle that starts at pickup. Flipkart publishes the fastest case as 3 days, and the schedule you actually get depends on your seller tier. The current timeline for your account is shown in Seller Hub.
Fast settlement is not the same as money that is yours. Returns and claims from earlier orders can still be adjusted against a later payment, so keep the return window in mind before you treat an order as settled.
Every deduction comes off first. Commission by sub-category, the fixed closing fee, shipping, the collection fee, and 18 percent GST applied to those fees.
Then the adjustments. Returns from earlier cycles, cancellation penalties, promotional funding you opted into, and any claims settled in either direction.
This is why a seller can watch revenue grow and see the bank balance stay flat. The gap is the fee stack plus the return rate, and both are knowable in advance.
Download the settlement report each cycle and check it against your own order records. Wrongly charged shipping weight, returns billed as seller fault, and missing claims are the three that recur.
Claims have windows. An error you find two months late is usually an error you now own.
Cash flow follows from all of this rather than from your sales figure. Plan advertising against settled money, because a campaign funded from an order that has not cleared its return window is not funded yet.
