FLIPKART said on Tuesday it will shift its holding company from Singapore to India. The move aligns with the company's operations and comes as it considers a possible public listing in the country.

The Walmart-owned e-commerce company is currently domiciled in Singapore.

“Flipkart, India’s homegrown e-commerce platform, proudly based and operating in India, has shared its intention to relocate its holding company from Singapore to India,” the company said in a statement.

“This move represents a natural evolution, aligning our holding structure with our core operations, the vast potential of the Indian economy and our technology and innovation-driven capabilities to foster digital transformation in India,” the statement said.

Flipkart has been exploring a public listing in India.

“As a company born and nurtured in India, this transition will further enhance our focus and agility in serving our customers, sellers, partners, and communities to continue contributing to the nation's growing digital economy and entrepreneurship,” the company added.

Inflation bites, unemployment rises, costs spike, yet how banks make billions?

  • Lloyds posts £2bn profit as higher interest rates boost margins
  • Mortgage costs rise sharply while households face growing pressure
  • Stagflation risks emerge with slower growth and rising unemployment

Even as inflation rises, unemployment edges up and household costs continue to climb, banks are reporting stronger profits. The latest results from Lloyds Banking Group highlight this contrast, with the lender posting a quarterly pre-tax profit of £2 billion, up 33 per cent year-on-year and ahead of expectations.

The gains come largely from higher interest rates. As borrowing costs rise, banks are able to charge more on loans while keeping deposit rates relatively lower, widening their margins. Lloyds’ net interest margin rose to 3.17 per cent, up from 3.03 per cent a year earlier, reflecting this shift. The bank also upgraded its outlook for net interest income to more than £14.9 billion, pointing to sustained higher rates.
