Flipkart-owned fashion e-commerce marketplace Myntra slipped into the red in the financial year ended March 31, 2026. The company reported a net loss of Rs 579.4 crore after posting a profit of Rs 548.5 crore a year earlier, according to filings sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC).
Revenue from operations fell 14% to Rs 5,242.5 crore, compared with Rs 6,063.8 crore in FY25, largely due to a sharp decline in revenue from logistics and shipping services.
Myntra also earned other income of Rs 73.3 crore in FY26, mainly from royalty services to suppliers. Inclusive of that, total revenue stood at Rs 5,315.8 crore, down 13% from Rs 6,137 crore in the previous fiscal.
Flipkart, which bought Myntra in 2014, shifted its domicile back to India from Singapore in March this year. The restructuring allowed Flipkart’s India entity, Flipkart Internet Private Limited, to bring Flipkart’s Singapore-based subsidiaries including logistics arm eKart, fashion business Myntra, fintech platform super.money and travel platform Cleartrip within its fold.
Overall, Flipkart Group posted a consolidated net loss of Rs 8,468 crore on an operating revenue of Rs 1.45 lakh crore in FY26.
How Myntra earns revenue
Myntra generates revenue primarily from marketplace services under which third-party sellers sell products on the company’s website to customers. It also makes money from advertising, logistics and shipping services.

- Marketplace services contributed Rs 2,657.3 crore, accounting for 55.05% of the platform’s revenue in FY26.
- Advertising services revenue stood at Rs 1,236.4 crore, marking a 35% increase from Rs 914.5 crore in FY25.
- Logistics and shipping services brought in 1,119.2 crore in revenue, 53% less than Rs 2,390.5 crore Myntra earned from this segment in FY25.
Myntra offloads stake in WROGN
