Flipkart was founded in 2007 by Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal, both alumni of IIT Delhi, to make books easily available online. It has since expanded into multiple product categories. Flipkart raised funding from Accel India and Tiger Global Management, and has grown to thousands of employees and millions of customers. It operates warehouses across India to fulfill orders through its delivery and logistics operations, with a focus on providing customers a good shopping experience.
