These are available-account cohorts, not estimates of whole industries. Industry membership follows the landscape’s broad company classification; multi-industry entities can appear in more than one row. Revenue is not allocated by segment. Do not add the rows together or interpret the ranking as an investment score.

Coverage, calculations & financial sources

Eight reporting entities have open account previews. Other individual figures are available in Radar. The same eight previews apply across years, filters, profiles and downloads. Aggregate charts cover the full eligible cohort. Annual accounts were checked on 14 September 2026. FY2025 means 1 April 2024–31 March 2025; FY2023 and FY2024 use the equivalent full April–March years. This comparison uses FY2023–FY2025, even where a newer report exists.

Company identities are matched by exact website and their designated Indian reporting entity, then by CIN (Corporate Identification Number). Eligible entities are distinct matches after reviewed brand-to-parent exclusions. Covered entities also have usable revenue and net profit for the selected year. Missing accounts are not treated as zero. Multiple brands sharing a CIN count once in each industry.

Only standalone annual accounts reported in INR enter this view. ₹1 crore equals ₹10,000,000. The display currency selector converts these INR amounts using the dated ECB reference rates shown above; it does not recalculate historical exchange rates. Downloads retain reported INR. These accounts describe the legal entity’s full operations, including activity outside Bengaluru. They do not measure Bengaluru consumer spending, GMV or sales per store. Funding elsewhere on this page is sourced in USD and follows the same display currency selector.

Net margin = net profit after tax ÷ positive operating revenue. Aggregate margin divides the two cohort totals; median margin uses individual entity margins. Profitable share = entities with positive net profit ÷ all covered entities. Growth uses the same CIN, standalone basis and a positive prior-year revenue; the growth denominator is shown separately. FY2023 growth is unavailable because FY2022 is outside this extract. Borrowings add reported short- and long-term borrowings only; they do not include every lease or debt-like liability.

Flipkart India accounts are withheld while their standalone-versus-consolidated basis is reconciled; Ninjacart accounts are withheld pending unit verification. Conflicting statements, unresolved unit scales, negative operating revenue and material balance-sheet mismatches are excluded. The latest available revision of each full statement is used. Figures come from compiled annual statutory accounts; they have not all been independently re-audited. Cash-flow and current-ratio measures are withheld where definitions require further reconciliation. Coverage can favor larger or more regularly reporting businesses.

DIGITAL FOOTPRINT

Web traffic, app reach and release cadence

How the Bengaluru companies on this page show up online: the sites people visit, the apps they install, and how often those apps ship.

Busiest websites

103 of the 2,424 companies on this page carry a measured traffic record (4.2%); these are the largest of those, by monthly visits. The median among them is 383,045 visits.

Visits and authority are third-party web estimates, not company-reported figures.

Most-installed apps

300 of these companies (12.4%) publish at least one Android app — 1,123 apps in all, carrying 4.7B installs between them.

Installs are lifetime totals to date at the June 2026 store reading — a measure of reach, not of people using an app today.

App reach by segment

The busiest app inside each of this page’s own segments, with the quarterly release trend behind it (2024Q1–2026Q2).

A company can carry several segment tags, so these rows overlap and should not be added together. Trend lines are zero-based and share one quarter grid, so a flat line is a quiet segment, not a missing one.

Release cadence by quarter

New apps published, beside apps whose most recent update landed in that quarter — the second bar is how much of the shelf is still being maintained.

Darker bars are new releases, lighter bars apps updated. 813 of 1,123 apps carry a release date. The series ends at 2026Q1, the last quarter that closed before the June 2026 reading.

DEMAND, SUPPLY & PLACE

Where demand signals run ahead of mapped supply — Bengaluru

Compare demand signals in Bengaluru’s newsflow with the retail categories mapped to each signal.

Expand panel +
HOW TO READ THE GAP

Signal percentile − supply percentile = gap in percentile points. Positive gaps highlight questions to investigate. A high signal can reflect spending pressure or access friction, as well as potential demand.

The comparison is relative to the signal families on this page. A supply percentile of zero means the lowest relative reading, not zero companies. It is a prioritisation clue, not measured market size or unmet demand.

Legal-name variants are not merged into corporate groups. A jointly assigned document can count for more than one assignee, so these rows should not be added together.

Sources, matching and how to interpret the numbers

Company scope. The local view uses seven reviewed legal-name variants for four featured companies. It includes their worldwide published documents across technology classes. It does not claim that the other companies have no patents, that all their subsidiaries are captured, or that the invention originated in Bengaluru.

Technology scope. The global view matches any stored CPC code beginning G06Q30/06. It includes the wider buying, selling and leasing technology field. The local and global views use different selection rules and should not be divided into a market-share figure.

Counting. Each publication number is counted once. Families are distinct recorded family IDs within 2016–2025, counted once across the whole period. Document type comes from the publication kind code; it is not a current legal-status assessment.

Timing. Queried 14 September 2026. The available records include publications through 21 April 2026; this analysis ends with 2025. Applications are often published around 18 months after the earliest priority date, so the latest years are not an immediate signal of inventive activity.

Retail in Bengaluru: key questions

Clear definitions for making better comparisons.

How many retail companies are tracked in Bengaluru?

Fliar tracks 2,424 companies in the Bengaluru retail landscape as of 6 August 2026. The scope includes retail technology, e-commerce, consumer brands and commerce enablers.

How much funding have Bengaluru retail companies raised?

The snapshot records $27.03B in disclosed funding across 432 companies. This is cumulative company funding, not Bengaluru retail sales or market size. Source funding is in US dollars. Annual financial accounts are reported in Indian rupees, displayed in crore by default. The currency selector offers indicative conversions at a stated reference date; reporting periods and standalone basis stay unchanged.

Which Bengaluru retail companies are hiring?

The snapshot records 272 companies with 613 open roles. Livspace, Smytten, Myntra, Meesho and Printo lead the featured hiring list. Job availability is recorded as of 6 August 2026; open a company profile for newer information.

What do the industry KPIs measure?

Hiring participation divides companies with open roles by all 2,424 tracked companies. Funding participation divides companies with a recorded round by the same total. Funding concentration measures the share of disclosed capital received by the three largest recipients. The median round is the middle disclosed round amount since 2016.

Can I add the market segments together?

A company can belong to several segments and use more than one revenue model. Segment counts and funding therefore overlap and should not be added together.

Does the page measure retail market size or store performance?

The page measures the company ecosystem. Retail sales, gross merchandise value, same-store sales growth and sales per square foot require a different dataset and are not represented by these funding and hiring KPIs.

Company ecosystem snapshot: 6 August 2026. News and demand comparisons cover May 2025–April 2026; the opportunity board was built on 12 September 2026. Source funding is in USD. Annual accounts cover FY2023–FY2025 in INR, checked 14 September 2026. Each chart identifies its own period and geography.
