Myntra selects. That is the whole difference.
Everything else about selling here follows from this one fact, so it is worth sitting with before you spend weeks on an application.
On Meesho you register, upload a catalogue and sell — nobody decides anything about you. On Myntra you apply, and a person or a process assesses whether your brand belongs on the platform. The application can end in no, and frequently does.
What that costs you is time and certainty at the start. What it buys you, if you get in, is a much smaller field: the competitors who would undercut you on an open marketplace are not there, because they were not let in either.
Which means a plain reseller usually will not qualify
If you buy unbranded stock wholesale and resell it, Myntra is generally not available to you and no amount of reapplying changes that. It is a brand platform, and the assessment is looking for a brand. That is not a judgement about your business — it is a different business from the one Myntra is built for.
The sequence that works is Meesho or Flipkart first to learn what actually sells, then build a label around what did, then apply here with a year of trading behind you. Whether Myntra fits your stock goes into that in more detail.
What an application is judged on
Four things, roughly in the order they matter.
- A brand you own. A registered trademark, or a written authorisation from the brand owner if you are selling someone else’s. This is the one that most applications fail on, and it is not negotiable by being persistent.
- Catalogue quality. Myntra is a fashion platform and its own photography standard is high. A catalogue shot on a bed against a bedsheet reads as a different tier of seller, however good the garment is. The Myntra photo guide covers the spec.
- Depth in a category. A coherent range in one category assesses better than a handful of items across five. It signals you can supply consistently, which is what the platform is actually buying.
- The ability to fulfil. Stock you can actually ship, at the volume a listing might generate, without going out of stock in week two.
None of the four are quick to acquire, which is the honest reason most sellers should not start here.
The portal, and the address that catches people out
Worth knowing before you go looking, because the obvious guess is wrong.
Almost every guide on the internet prints partners.myntra.com as the seller portal. That address does not resolve — it is not a slow site or a login wall, there is simply nothing there. It has been copied between blog posts for years without anyone checking.
The working portal is at partners.myntrainfo.com, which hands off to Myntra’s own accounts system for the sign-in. The seller login guide covers what to expect there, including the sign-in methods available.
This is the same class of trap as Meesho’s: seller.meesho.com serves the ordinary shopping site rather than a seller panel. In both cases the platform’s real address is not the one you would guess, and searching the obvious phrase leads somewhere confidently wrong.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can anyone become a Myntra seller?
No, and this is the main difference from Meesho. Myntra is approval-based: you apply, the platform assesses whether your brand belongs there, and the application can end in a no. A plain reseller of unbranded wholesale stock is usually declined.
Do I need a trademark to sell on Myntra?
Effectively yes — either a registered trademark of your own or a written authorisation from the brand owner whose goods you are selling. It is the requirement most applications fail on, and persistence does not substitute for it.
Where is the Myntra seller portal?
At partners.myntrainfo.com, which hands off to Myntra’s accounts system for sign-in. Almost every guide prints partners.myntra.com instead, and that address does not resolve at all — it has been copied between blog posts for years without anyone checking it.
What does Myntra charge sellers?
A commission that varies by category, plus shipping and the cost of returns. Fashion returns at a high rate everywhere, so model the return rate rather than the commission alone — the commission is the number people quote and rarely the one that decides profitability.
Should I start on Myntra or Meesho?
Meesho, almost certainly, unless you already have a brand. Meesho selects nobody, so you can start this week and learn what sells from real orders. Build a label around what worked, then apply to Myntra a year later with trading evidence behind you.
Why was my Myntra seller application rejected?
Most commonly no brand ownership, then catalogue quality below the platform’s photography standard, then a range too thin or scattered to signal consistent supply. All three are fixable, but none quickly — which is the honest reason most sellers should build elsewhere first.
The narrow door cuts both ways. Myntra is harder to get into than any other Indian marketplace, and that difficulty is the reason the sellers inside it are not competing with everyone who owns a phone.
