Binny Bansal, co-founder of Flipkart, officially stepped down from the board of the e-commerce giant, marking the end of his association with the company he co-founded with Sachin Bansal in 2007.

In a statement, Binny Bansal expressed pride in Flipkart’s achievements over the past 16 years. He affirmed Flipkart’s robust position, strong leadership team, and clear path forward.

I wish the team the best as they continue to transform experiences for customers, and I remain a strong supporter of the business.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Binny’s departure comes after his full exit from Flipkart last year, along with early investors such as Tiger Global and Accel.
