How much does Blinkit charge sellers in 2026?
Blinkit deducts a commission on every sale plus fixed per-unit charges for fulfilment, inwarding and dark store storage, and 18% GST applies on these fees. Commission is usually linked to your selling price slab or product category, while fulfilment is a flat amount per unit. The exact numbers depend on your seller agreement, so use the calculator above with the terms Blinkit has shared with you.
How to use this Blinkit fee calculator
- Selling price: Enter the price at which your product will sell on Blinkit.
- Commission %: Enter the commission from your Blinkit agreement for this price slab or category.
- Fixed fee: Add the per-unit fulfilment fee (pick, pack and last-mile delivery) plus the inwarding fee charged when stock is received at the warehouse.
- Handling fee: Add storage and any other per-unit handling charges. For storage, multiply the per-day rate by the average days your stock sits in the dark store.
- GST on fees: Keep this at 18% unless your invoice shows a different treatment.
The result updates as you type and shows your estimated payout, total deductions and effective fee rate.
Blinkit payout formula
The effective fee rate is the number to watch. It tells you what share of every rupee Blinkit keeps, after all charges, not just commission.
Blinkit seller fees explained
| Fee | What it covers | How it is charged |
|---|---|---|
| Commission | Platform's cut on each sale | % of selling price, based on price slab or category |
| Fulfilment fee | Picking, packing and 10 minute delivery | Flat amount per unit sold |
| Inwarding fee | Receiving and checking your stock at the warehouse | Flat amount per unit received |
| Storage fee | Keeping your stock in dark stores | Per unit per day, can rise for slow moving stock |
| Return fee | Handling customer returns | Per returned unit |
| GST on fees | Tax on Blinkit's service charges | 18% on the total of platform fees |
Some sellers also see ad wallet commitments or listing related charges at onboarding. These are not per-order deductions, but they should be part of your launch budget.
Why Blinkit commission rates differ across websites
Search for Blinkit commission and you will find very different numbers. Some guides show price-based slabs, some show category-based rates, and others quote broad ranges. All of them can be partly right, because Blinkit's terms vary by category, price point, brand size, business model (SOR or outright) and what was negotiated at onboarding.
That is why this calculator does not lock any rate. Every fee field is editable, so you can enter the exact terms from your own agreement instead of trusting a generic table. If you are not yet on Blinkit, use conservative assumptions and test a few scenarios before you set your MRP.
Example: ₹299 product on Blinkit
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Selling price | ₹299.00 |
| Commission (5% assumed) | ₹14.95 |
| Fulfilment fee (assumed) | ₹50.00 |
| Inwarding fee (assumed) | ₹5.00 |
| Storage (₹1/day × 15 days, assumed) | ₹15.00 |
| GST on fees (18%) | ₹15.29 |
| Total deductions | ₹100.24 |
| Net payout | ₹198.76 |
| Product cost | ₹150.00 |
| Profit per unit | ₹48.76 (16.3% margin) |
Here the commission is only ₹14.95, but fixed charges and GST take the total deduction past ₹100. On low-priced products, fixed fees matter more than commission.
Fixed fees hit low-priced products hardest
This table shows how a fixed ₹55 per unit (fulfilment plus inwarding) affects products at different price points, before commission, storage and GST.
| Selling price | ₹55 as % of price |
|---|---|
| ₹99 | 55.6% |
| ₹199 | 27.6% |
| ₹299 | 18.4% |
| ₹499 | 11.0% |
| ₹999 | 5.5% |
If your product sells below ₹200, consider combo packs, multipacks or larger pack sizes to raise the order value and spread the fixed cost.
6 ways to improve your Blinkit margin
- Price for the platform, not just the market. Work backwards from your target margin using the calculator before you finalise MRP for Blinkit.
- Keep stock moving. Send inventory based on weekly sell-through so products do not sit in dark stores and build up storage cost.
- Build packs for low-ticket SKUs. Bundles and multipacks reduce the share of fixed fees per rupee of revenue.
- Reduce returns and damages. Strong packaging, correct barcodes and accurate shelf life cut return fees and inwarding rejections.
- Choose the right model. SOR and outright purchase affect cash flow, pricing control and risk differently. Pick based on your margin and stage.
- Compare platforms. Run the same SKU through our Zepto and Instamart calculators and allocate stock where unit economics work best.

What is the Blinkit fulfilment fee?
It is a flat per-unit charge for picking, packing and last-mile delivery. Since it does not change with price, it has a bigger impact on low-priced products.

Yes. GST at 18% generally applies to Blinkit's service fees like commission and fulfilment. Check your invoices, since treatment can vary by fee.
How do I calculate my profit on Blinkit?
