How We Calculate
All calculations are transparent and based on the inputs you provide. No hidden assumptions. Here is the exact formula used for both platforms.
Amazon Formula
- 1.Referral Fee = Selling Price × Referral %
- 2.Fees Before GST = Referral + Closing + Shipping + FBA + Packaging
- 3.GST on Fees = Fees Before GST × GST %
- 4.Return Impact = Return Rate % × Return Cost per Return
- 5.Total Platform Cost = Fees Before GST + GST + Return Impact
- 6.Net Profit = Selling Price − Product Cost − Total Platform Cost
- 7.Net Margin % = Net Profit ÷ Selling Price × 100
Flipkart Formula
- 1.Commission Fee = Selling Price × Commission %
- 2.Collection Fee = Selling Price × Collection Fee %
- 3.Fees Before GST = Commission + Fixed Fee + Shipping + Collection + Packaging
- 4.GST on Fees = Fees Before GST × GST %
- 5.Return Impact = Return Rate % × Return Cost per Return
- 6.Total Platform Cost = Fees Before GST + GST + Return Impact
- 7.Net Profit = Selling Price − Product Cost − Total Platform Cost
Why This Comparison Matters for Indian Sellers
Amazon and Flipkart are the two largest ecommerce marketplaces in India, but their fee structures are fundamentally different. Selling on the wrong platform — or not knowing the difference — directly reduces your contribution margin. Ek hi product par dono platforms ke fees alag hote hain, aur agar aapne comparison nahi kiya to profit silently kam ho jaata hai.
How to Reduce Fees on Amazon and Flipkart
Optimise product packaging weight
Reducing a product from 510g to 490g can move it to a lower weight slab, saving ₹20–40 per shipment. At 1,000 orders per month, that is ₹20,000–40,000 in savings.
Use FBA selectively
FBA makes sense for high-volume, small products where the fulfilment efficiency offsets storage costs. For slow-moving or bulky products, Easy Ship is often cheaper.
Reduce return rates
Improve product images, add size guides, set accurate category attributes, and respond quickly to negative reviews. A 3% reduction in return rate significantly improves net margin.
Review category classification
Some products qualify for multiple categories with different commission rates. Ensure your product is listed in the category with the most favourable rate.
Claim GST input tax credit
If registered under GST, you can claim input tax credit on all marketplace fees including commissions and shipping. This reduces the effective cost of fees.
