Something to know about “The Two Mastermind”

•Flipkart was founded in 2007 by Sachin Bansal(26) and Binny Bansal(25) , both alumni of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi Computer Science graduates from the 2005 batch.

•Sachin worked at Techspan for 6 months and then at Amazon.

•Binny worked at Sarnoff India for a year and a half and then at Amazon India for 8 months. They quit their jobs in September 2007 to begin our startup journey.

•Flipkart.com was founded on 5th Sept 2007. The website was launched on 15th Oct 2007.

•From a start-up with an investment of just 4 Lakhs Rupees Flipkart has grown into a $100 million dollars online retail giant in just five years.

ABOUT FLIPKART.COM•Flipkart is an Indian e-commerce company headquartered in Bangalore, Karnataka.

•In its initial years, Flipkart focused on online sales of books. But it later expanded to electronic goods and a variety of other products.

•Flipkart offers multiple payment methods like credit card, debit card, net banking, e-gift voucher, and Cash on Delivery.

•The cash-on-delivery model adopted by Flipkart has proven to be of great significance since credit card and net banking penetration is very low in India.

CHALLENGES FACED BY FLIPKART DURING ITS LAUNCH…

•One major challenge was to get tie-ups with the major book vendors as they did not have an off-line book store.

• They have somehow managed to persuade them and now most of the vendors are supporting us. •The second major challenge was to get the approval for the credit card payment gateway. •We did want to use CC Avenue as their interface is really confusing. So they had to convince Axis Bank for the payment gateway and that was not easy given the fact that they are a self-funded startup and they don’t have an offline presence….
