Quick Answer
Blinkit commission is variable and slab-based
— roughly 2% on low-priced items, rising to about 8–15%
for most categories, and up to ~18% for premium categories. On top
of commission, sellers also pay a per-unit fulfilment fee (around
Rs 30–50), storage charges, and optional marketing spends,
plus 18% GST on platform fees. Altogether, the effective cost of
selling often reaches roughly 25–30% of selling price.
Commission is charged on a slab basis, so the exact
rate depends on your product category and price point. Lower-priced
everyday items typically fall into lower slabs, while premium
categories attract higher ones. The specific slab for your products
is confirmed with the Category Manager during onboarding.
Because commission is only one part of the cost, always build the complete
cost of selling — commission, fulfilment, storage, and GST
— into your pricing before you go live, not after. For a full
breakdown of how the numbers add up, see our guide on Blinkit
commission and charges.
