Flipkart was founded by Binny and Sachin Bansal back in 2007 and was one of the first Indian e-commerce stores in the market. Since then, the company has grown exponentially but has also received some stiff competitions from its rivals, mainly Amazon. 

In this article, we’re going over how you can delete your Flipkart account. Once you delete your Flipkart account, the following things happen.

  • You are logged out of your Flipkart Account.
  • Your public profile on Flipkart is no longer visible
  • Your reviews/ratings are still visible, while your profile information is shown as ‘unavailable’ due to deactivation.
  • Your wishlist items are no longer accessible through the associated public hyperlink. The wishlist will be unavailable following deactivation.
  • You will be unsubscribed from receiving promotional emails from Flipkart
  • Your account data is retained and is restored in case you choose to reactivate your account
