Tira Glossary

Vendor Portal (Reliance/AJIO Vendor Portal)
AJIO's seller backend (a Reliance system) — handles PO acceptance, ASN generation, dispatch, and settlement. Requires Reliance vendor code.
FSSAI (Food Safety and Standards Authority of India License)
Statutory licence mandatory for any beauty/personal-care/wellness product that touches skin, hair, or is ingestible — required by Nykaa, Tira, Purple, and FirstCry.
AOV (Average Order Value)
Average rupee value of a single order on the marketplace. Higher AOV categories (e.g. luxury) tolerate higher commission percentages.
Brand Store (Branded Storefront)
A dedicated, brand-controlled URL on the marketplace (e.g. myntra.com/brand-x) with custom banners, A+ content modules, and curated collections.
PLA (Product Listing Ad)
A sponsored placement that pushes a specific SKU to the top of search and category pages. Bidding is CPC-based on the seller portal.
Reconciliation (Payment Reconciliation)
The order-by-order audit of marketplace settlements against the SKU-level commission, fees, RTO claw-backs, and TDS — typically run monthly.
