E-commerce platforms hike fees, penalties ahead of festive season
Amazon and Flipkart have increased penalties for late dispatches and cancellations, along with new fees on every order. Delhivery has also added a surcharge for D2C brands. These changes impact sellers, especially those handling low-value orders, amid rising production and fulfilment costs.
