Walmart-owned Flipkart has launched its new program called Sell Back Program, under this scheme, users can sell their old phones on Flipkart. Doing so will help in reducing the e-waste generated from phones and other electronic items.

Flipkart has said that the new sell back program will be available only on the Flipkart app. This option will be found at the bottom of the app. Users who sell their phones on Flipkart will get a Flipkart gift voucher of a correct value. Like Flipkart's trade-in program, your phone will be valued in this program too. After filling all the details, a Flipkart executive will collect the phone from you within 48 hours. Once this is done, Flipkart will verify your product, and if all goes well, it will give you an electronic coupon in exchange for your smartphone.

According to a report by Flipkart, out of 125 million users in India, only 20 million users send their phones to the refurbished market.

This program will reduce this problem and give consumers a safe platform on which they can sell their old phones.
