Has Flipkart received a blank cheque from Walmart?

Flipkart is trying to enter two different market segments at the same time: Quick Commerce and UPI. There are already proven players in the space and it isn't possible to enter these segments without loads of investment. I wonder what Flipkarts game plan is and how it is going to execute it

They had to enter Quick Commerce - they need it for tier 1 cities. They’re losing out on so much stuff being sold exclusively on blinkit / instamart / zepto or grocery stores but not flipkart/amazon. These apps are only adding more products in - you can buy phones, and other electronics like earphones on blinkit now - this is typical flipkart market that they’re eating away

So the everyone is now a everything store.

To save cost and have better retention you will do payments.
