How does Flipkart advertising work, and is it worth the spend?
The short answer
Flipkart Ads (accessible via advertising.flipkart.com or the seller.flipkart.com dashboard) runs on a similar auction-and-Product-Listing-Ad model to Amazon, and it's worth testing once you have organic listings live and clean, ads on a marketplace convert far better against high-intent shoppers than the same budget on Meta or Google. Start small on your best-selling SKUs to establish a baseline ACoS before scaling spend across the catalogue. Treat it as a per-SKU decision, not an all-or-nothing switch, some categories on Flipkart return ads spend faster than others.
