Amazon, Flipkart & Meesho seller fees: FAQ
Everything below reflects the 2026 fee structure.
Since 16 March 2026, Amazon India charges no referral fee on products priced at or below ₹1,000, across more than 1,800 categories. Above ₹1,000, referral fees range from roughly 2% to 38% depending on category. Amazon calls the change "not promotional — it is structural."
If you've read elsewhere that Amazon charges a flat 15–18%, that information predates March 2026.
No. Flipkart moved products under ₹1,000 to 0% commission in March 2026.
Above ₹1,000, commission depends on both category and your seller tier (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum). There is no public rate card, because there is no single rate — it differs per seller. Your exact figures are in Seller Hub under Reports → My Commission Structure. We show an estimate and let you override it.
Meesho charges 0% commission on every category, at every price, and no payment gateway or COD fee — you keep 100% of the sale price.
It earns from logistics margin, advertising, and a fixed platform fee per order. That makes Meesho structurally different: shipping is the cost that decides your profit there, not commission.
Your selling price includes GST, so the taxable value is price ÷ (1 + GST rate). Marketplaces also charge 18% GST on their own fees — and that GST is reclaimable as Input Tax Credit, so we credit it back.
Calculators that subtract GST as a flat cost and ignore ITC overstate your tax and understate your profit on every single order.
A return isn't just a cancelled sale. You lose forward shipping, reverse shipping and packaging, and you get the product back. So a return costs you real money rather than simply earning nothing.
We model that as a loss per returned order. Cutting profit by a flat percentage — which most calculators do — makes returns look far cheaper than they are.
Shipping is charged by weight slab and delivery zone — local (same city), regional (same region), or national (across regions).
Now that commission is zero on most sub-₹1,000 products, shipping is frequently the largest fee you pay. Reducing weight or selling closer to home often moves your profit more than raising your price.
Amazon referral fees are verified from Amazon's own published schedule — 234 categories with exact price bands — and each card shows when they were checked.
Some figures are estimates, and we label them as such rather than pretending otherwise. Amazon publishes its closing-fee and weight grids as images, Flipkart's rate card is per-seller and login-gated, and Meesho's shipping slabs aren't on its own page. Where we estimate, we say so and give you the field to enter your real number.
Marketplace fees change — two Amazon categories changed in June 2026 alone. Always confirm against your seller panel before pricing a product.
