Abstract | Working capital management plays a crucial role in ensuring the smooth operation and financial stability of any business. It involves the efficient management of a company’s short-term assets and liabilities to ensure that it can meet its operational expenses and short-term debt obligations. In the case of Flipkart, one of India’s leading e-commerce giants, effective working capital management has had a significant impact on its profitability and overall performance. Firstly, proper working capital management helps Flipkart maintain optimal inventory levels. As an e-commerce platform dealing with a wide range of products, Flipkart must ensure it holds enough stock to meet customer demand without overstocking, which can tie up capital unnecessarily. Through the use of data analytics and demand forecasting, Flipkart manages its inventory efficiently, reducing holding costs and improving cash flow. Secondly, Flipkart’s ability to negotiate favorable payment terms with suppliers and delay outflows while accelerating customer payments contributes to better liquidity. By shortening its receivables cycle and managing its payables effectively, Flipkart ensures that it has sufficient working capital to reinvest in growth opportunities, marketing, and technological advancements, thereby boosting profitability. Thirdly, Flipkart uses technology to streamline its operations and working capital cycle. Automation in logistics, supply chain, and financial reporting reduces the time and resources needed to manage day-to-day operations. This efficiency directly translates into cost savings and improved margins, both of which are critical in the competitive e-commerce industry. |
