- Flipkart is accused of continuing to evade GST compliance on transport services despite a recent law amendment that removed GST exemptions for e-commerce operators. A Chennai-based advocate has written to the Finance Minister, alleging Flipkart splits invoices to reclassify marketplace fees as transport charges and claim exemptions meant for small transporters. The letter claims Flipkart ignores the new rules and maintains its old billing model, potentially encouraging other e-commerce firms to do the same. The advocate urges the government to investigate Flipkart’s practices and assess the revenue impact.
