Flipkart pledges to deepen investments in West Bengal infrastructure, citing its largest fulfillment center at Haringhata supporting over 120,000 jobs and empowering more than 66,000 sellers across the state.

Why this matters

Flipkart's West Bengal expansion follows Walmart's $16B stake acquisition that highlighted India's retail FDI potential, extending that capital into regional infrastructure and MSME growth.
