Separate inventory states
One in-stock column is not enough for Flipkart: inventory is separated between Flipkart Fulfilment programs and seller warehouses. Track available, reserved, inbound and unaccepted units separately.
- available for sale
- reserved by orders
- shipped or awaiting receiving
- blocked, returning or under review
Match stock to sales velocity
The Flipkart assortment context is broad catalog, seasonal events, COD orders and profit across Indian regions. Calculate days of cover on a stable period and flag campaigns, seasonal peaks and new items separately.
Zero sales do not always mean overstock; verify listing availability, price and warehouse status.
Shortage and overstock need different actions
Shortage control needs the next supply date and lost selling days. Overstock control needs tied-up cash, storage and a realistic sell-through horizon.
Compare inventory by store and market: India.
Daily control list
Start with SKUs that will run out before replenishment, then review unaccepted supplies and products without movement.
SellerStrat keeps recommended order next to available and inbound inventory.
