Best For

  • Mid-market (โ‚น1Cr+ ARR) to premium
  • Brands with registered trademark under Class 25 (apparel), Class 3 (beauty)
  • Founders committed to weekly marketplace ops (or agency retainer)
  • Categories aligned to fashion, footwear, beauty, accessories
  • Brands seeking Tier-1 marketplace visibility

Not Recommended For

  • Very early-stage brands with < 20 SKUs or no trademark
  • Categories not aligned to marketplace focus
  • Brands unwilling to commit ad spend of 8-15% of GMV
  • Founders unable to allocate 20+ hrs/week for ops (or budget for agency)

Implementation Steps

  1. 1Complete document dossier (GST + PAN + trademark under Class 25 (apparel), Class 3 (beauty) + brand deck + photography samples)
  2. 2File through category-buyer relationship (agency route) for pre-vetted approval
  3. 3Upload 20-50 SKUs via API or bulk XLSX
  4. 4Enable PLA + Sponsored Brand from Day 1 with baseline 1.8-2.5x ROAS target
  5. 5Set up weekly recon + returns audit cadence

Myntra Reconciliation Checklist

  • GST certificate โ€” active + name matches
  • Trademark under Class 25 (apparel), Class 3 (beauty) โ€” REGISTERED
  • PAN + COI / LLP / Partnership deed
  • Cancelled cheque + 3-month bank statement
  • Brand deck (5-10 slides)
  • Photography spec (1080ร—1440 fashion)
  • Instagram handle at threshold
  • Category certifications (BIS/FSSAI/CDSCO as applicable)
  • Brand authorization letter (if OEM)
  • MRP labelling proof
  • D2C site URL
  • GA4 + pixel setup for cross-channel attribution

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Filing before trademark is fully REGISTERED (not "applied")
  • Using D2C photography instead of Myntra's marketplace spec
  • Skipping the category-buyer intro in first 30 days
  • Launching PLA before 2+ reviews land on hero SKUs
  • Ignoring pricing parity ยฑ3% across Myntra + other channels
  • Not reconciling settlements weekly (2-8% GMV silent leak)

Expert Opinion

โ€œMyntra rewards brands that treat it as a curated media channel โ€” not a passive sales channel. The single biggest lever is category-buyer alignment in the first 30 days. Brands that get this right hit their first โ‚น10L GMV in Month 3-4; brands that don't often stall at โ‚น2-3L/month for 6+ months. If reconciliation is your current bottleneck, the fix is almost always dossier quality + agency-filed submission for 10โ€“15 days (agency) turnaround.โ€
