Flipkart has seen renewed focus on its ads platform since Binny Bansal took over, and it seems to work. A senior Flipkart official privy to the latest developments claims its advertising arm has been growing exponentially since the previously quoted figure of $1 million in revenue a month.“A million was long back. Around 25% sellers are currently onboard, and we’re growing at around 50% month-on-month”, he said.
While the media discourse around advertisement platforms of Snapdeal and Flipkart has been around their desperation to raise additional revenues in tough times, the official claimed the foundational work was already in place from long back.
“The basic work for Flipkart ads in terms of product development was being done previously. We’re only taking our finished products to the market now”, he claims.
