AJIO Seller Registration: A Complete Guide for Fashion Sellers
Quick answer: AJIO seller registration is done through Reliance’s supplier registration portal. You need a registered business with PAN, GST, bank details with a cancelled cheque, and usually a trademark certificate or brand authorisation. Approval takes anywhere from one to about six weeks depending on the source. AJIO does not publish a public commission rate. Fees are “a combination of commission and operating expenses, as agreed during registration”, so you only know your real numbers once your seller agreement is in hand.
AJIO is Reliance’s fashion and lifestyle marketplace, and it is more selective than a general marketplace. It screens brands for quality, positioning and documentation before they go live. Sellers who arrive prepared get through faster.
This guide covers who AJIO suits, how its two business models work, how to register, how fees work and how to avoid common delays.
In this guide:
- Who AJIO suits and which categories sell
- JIT and dropship: the two business models
- How to register as an AJIO seller
- What AJIO really charges
- After approval: Seller Central and listings
- How RB2F can help
Who AJIO Suits and What Sells There
AJIO focuses on fashion and lifestyle. Categories mentioned across guides include western and ethnic wear, footwear, accessories, beauty, kids wear and home products. Guides also stress that AJIO favours verified brands and good quality, so it suits sellers with a clear brand identity more than anonymous resellers.
If you sell fashion and already have strong product photos, consistent sizing and a registered trademark, AJIO is worth considering alongside Amazon and Flipkart. Sellers who also want Myntra must register separately, according to Easebuzz.
AJIO’s Two Business Models: JIT and Dropship
AJIO works with sellers in two main ways. Sources describe them slightly differently, so confirm the exact flow in your seller agreement.
- Just-in-time (JIT / B2B): AJIO collects customer demand and sends you orders, usually in bulk. You ship stock to an AJIO warehouse, where it is checked and dispatched.
- Dropship: Orders come to you individually through the seller portal, and you pack each one in line with AJIO’s guidelines. Arvian and Unicommerce say dropship orders ship from the seller’s own warehouse. Other descriptions have them going via an AJIO warehouse.
Under both models, AJIO manages the customer relationship. Unicommerce says AJIO handles consumer queries, returns and logistics in dropship, but gives no terms, so check yours.
How to Register as an AJIO Seller
You register as a supplier on Reliance’s unified supplier registration portal, the same entry point used for JioMart and Reliance Digital, according to Arvian and Unicommerce. You need a registered business in India. Individuals without business registration are not eligible, per Arvian.
Documents to keep ready:
- PAN (business PAN for companies and firms, personal PAN for proprietors)
- GST registration (GSTIN)
- Bank account details with a cancelled cheque
- Trademark certificate, or a brand authorisation letter if you resell
- Aadhaar of the owner or authorised signatory
- Company logo
- CIN and TAN certificates, for private limited companies
- MSME or Udyam certificate (optional)
Registration steps:
- Open the supplier registration portal and choose new supplier registration.
- Enter business, address and contact details. Names must match your PAN exactly.
- Upload documents and select your product categories.
- Submit and wait for review. You receive a request code to track your application.
- Log in to AJIO Seller Central once approved, then upload listings using category templates.
- Choose a fulfilment model and go live.
Some guides, such as Scalo Digital’s, also describe a brand screening step with physical product samples checked for stitching, fabric and labels. Requirements can vary by brand, so ask AJIO what applies to you.
How long approval takes. Sources differ: Arvian says one to two weeks for many applications, Unicommerce says it can take about 25 business days, and Scalo says three to six weeks including sample checks. Mismatched documents are the most common cause of delay.
Ways to improve your chances:
- Upload an MSME certificate, which Unicommerce says improves approval chances.
- Register your trademark. Without a brand certificate, some guides mention a self-declaration route, so check current rules.
- Keep names and addresses identical across PAN, GST and bank records.
- Prepare clean product images and complete size charts before you apply.
A note on “AJIO seller login.” After approval you sign in to Seller Central to manage listings, orders and payments. Use only AJIO’s official portal and keep your OTP and password private.

What AJIO Really Charges
AJIO does not publish a fixed rate card, so any single commission figure online should be treated with caution. Blooprint, quoting AJIO’s seller FAQ, says fees combine commission and operating expenses as agreed during registration. Fees apply to customer orders, GST applies to fee elements, and payouts follow a schedule set during onboarding.
Third-party estimates for commission differ a lot:
- Unicommerce gives several conflicting figures within one article, ranging from about 8% to 30%.
- Scalo Digital gives category ranges of roughly 18% to 28%, plus a 2% tech fee, and says these are approximate.
- Blooprint reproduces a seller-circulated fee sheet with higher figures for some models and says it is not confirmed by AJIO.
What this means for you: use these only as a rough range. Your real commission, logistics and return charges sit in your seller agreement.
Taxes. Blooprint states that TCS under GST is 0.5% of net taxable sales and TDS under section 194-O is 0.1% of gross sales, but cites no tax source. Confirm both with your chartered accountant.
Payout timing. AJIO does not publish a settlement cycle. Blooprint notes that just-in-time stock at AJIO’s warehouse can lengthen the wait for cash, so plan your working capital.
A simple margin check before you sign:
- Start from your selling price.
- Subtract commission, logistics and any fixed charges from your agreement.
- Subtract GST on those fees and tax deductions.
- Allow for returns, which are common in fashion.
- Check that what is left covers your product cost and leaves a margin.
If the number is thin at 20% commission, it will not work at 28%.
After Approval: Seller Central, Listings and Avoiding Delays
Seller Central is where you manage the catalogue, orders and performance. Typical tasks include product listing, pricing, inventory, promotions and order tracking.
Listing tips from the guides:
- Download the category template and fill every mandatory field, such as style code, HSN code, fabric and size.
- Use clear images from several angles, ideally on models or mannequins.
- Keep size charts and fabric details complete, which helps reduce returns.
- Add keywords naturally in titles and descriptions.
- Expect listings to go through quality checks before they go live.
Common causes of delay: incomplete documents, inconsistent brand details and low-quality images, per Business Waala.
