Calculate Blinkit seller fees, commission, inwarding, storage, fulfillment, GST, net settlement, margin and ROI before you list inventory on quick commerce.
Blinkit’s public seller page lists category commission, inwarding, storage, fulfilment, returns and inventory removal fee types. Exact charges depend on your product and seller terms. This calculator uses unverified planning assumptions and GST on fees, not a current account-specific rate card.

How this is calculated: price-band commission, inwarding, fulfilment, tiered storage, optional prorated returns and GST on fees reduce settlement; product cost reduces profit. Fee slabs are planning benchmarks, not verified current account rates. The existing 18% GST-on-fees treatment is a model assumption; verify invoice tax treatment. Product GST, GST TCS, income-tax TDS, inventory removal, ad credits and volume-based storage mentioned elsewhere are not included.
You're losing ₹64.9 per unit. Consider increasing your selling price or reducing product cost. Total take rate of Infinity% is too high.

Use this Blinkit seller fee calculator to estimate unit economics before sending inventory to Blinkit dark stores. The tool combines Blinkit commission, inwarding fee, storage fee, fulfillment charge, optional return cost and GST on platform fees to show your settlement amount, net profit, profit margin, ROI and total take rate.
Understanding Blinkit seller fees is critical for FMCG, grocery, beauty, personal care and packaged food brands because quick-commerce profitability depends on both price and inventory speed. Blinkit operates a dark-store model where sellers send stock into fulfillment locations, while the platform manages storage, picking, packing and last-mile delivery. Even a low commission product can become unprofitable if storage days, returns or fulfillment deductions are ignored.

This calculator uses the following price-based Blinkit commission assumptions. Blinkit’s official page says commission varies by category and product price; these slabs are not verified account rates:
In this planning model, products priced under ₹500 use a 2% commission assumption. This is not confirmation of the rate applicable to your category or account.
The calculator estimates Blinkit profitability using this practical seller formula: Settlement amount = Selling price − (commission + inwarding fee + storage fee + fulfillment fee + expected return fee + GST on fees). Net profit is then calculated as settlement amount minus product cost. This makes the page useful as a Blinkit profit calculator, Blinkit commission calculatorand quick-commerce margin planning tool in one workflow.
• Selling price: ₹299
• Product cost: ₹150
• Commission slab: 2%
• Fulfillment fee: ₹50/unit
• Inwarding fee: ₹5/unit
• Storage assumption: 15 days
For low-priced items, the fixed fulfillment fee can be a larger deduction than the commission. That is why sellers should test price, storage days and product cost before committing dark-store inventory.

Fast-moving FMCG products avoid tiered storage fee escalation. Target 7-15 day turnover to keep storage costs at just ₹7-₹15/unit.
Products under ₹150 rarely survive the ₹50 fulfillment fee + commission. Keep selling price at 2x+ your cost.
The calculator assumes ₹50/unit per return; actual charges depend on seller terms. Accurate product descriptions, quality packaging, and correct expiry dates reduce returns significantly.
