Flipkart crosses 100 mn customers milestone

e-tailer Flipkart has crossed the 100-million registered users mark, becoming the first e-commerce company in India to hit the milestone.

The Bengaluru-based company has doubled its user base over the last year and added 25 million users in the past six months alone.

“This is a small step in our efforts to build a platform that provides quality products, affordable and accessible to millions of Indians shopping online. This milestone has further energised us to ramp up our efforts and build a world-class shopping destination,” Flipkart co-founder and CEO Binny Bansal said.

One of the most valued start-ups in the country, Flipkart has Tiger Global, Accel Partners, Morgan Stanley and T Rowe among its investors. 

The company has raised over $3 billion in funding so far and has acquired companies such as Myntra, PhonePe and LetsBuy. 

It has also invested in start-ups like Cube26, NestAway and BlackBuck.
