Indian e-commerce firm Flipkart is eyeing India’s fast‑growing live‑events and food‑delivery markets, with plans to launch movie and concert ticketing and pilot food delivery from May, according to reports. The move pits the Walmart‑owned platform against established players like Accel‑backed BookMyShow and Zomato’s District in ticketing, as well as Zomato and Swiggy in a crowded, discount‑driven food‑delivery space. Flipkart’s push comes as it prepares for a possible India IPO, after moving its holding company back to India, reshuffling top management, and strengthening business units like fashion arm Myntra. The company will rely on growing smartphone use, higher spending power, and India’s booming concert culture to attract users, even though the ticketing and food‑delivery markets are already crowded, deeply discounted, and dominated by big rivals. #Flipkart #LiveEvents #MovieTickets #BookMyShow #Zomato
