Bengaluru based e-commerce company Flipkart was founded by Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal in 2007, which was acquired by US retailing giant Walmart in 2018.
Flipkart initially began as an online bookstore before diversifying to consumer electronics, fashion, home essentials & groceries, and lifestyle products. Flipkart also owns Myntra, PhonePe, Ekart, and 2GUD. It has received funding from Tiger Global, Naspers, Accel Partners, Softbank, and Iconiq Capital. Softbank has since then sold its stake to Walmart.
