The details

- Flipkart had about 85 million DAUs in June 2026, according to Sensor Tower data.
- Meesho came second with roughly 70 million DAUs.
- Amazon had over 60 million DAUs in the same period.
- In fashion apps, Myntra led with about 21 million DAUs.
- Ajio had 6-7 million DAUs, while Nykaa Fashion had about 2 million DAUs.
- Shein and Tata CLiQ each had below 2 million DAUs.
- BofA noted no visible slowdown in value commerce demand or e-commerce parcel shipments despite macroeconomic concerns.
The bigger picture
- BofA observed that demand trends across fashion and beauty remain healthy despite inflationary pressures.
- Competition in premium fashion and beauty categories remains relatively limited.
- Meesho's shipment volumes and NMV (net merchandise value) growth show no slowdown signs.
- BofA expects Delhivery's part truckload business to grow over 20% year-on-year in the near term.
- Valuations across listed internet companies have corrected over the past 6 months despite stable business momentum.

What happens next
