AJIO vs Myntra 2026: Complete Head-to-Head
Both AJIO and Myntra are India's top fashion e-commerce platforms — but they're very different in what they do best. We tested both platforms across 6 key dimensions to give you a clear answer on where your money goes furthest.
1. Brand Selection
AJIO carries 6,000+ brands with a strong focus on international labels — GAP, Superdry, Armani Exchange, New Balance, Crocs, Tommy Hilfiger — alongside strong Indian ethnic brands like Manyavar and BIBA. AJIO's private label (AJIO Luxe, indie picks) is also excellent for premium basics at accessible prices.
Myntra also lists 6,000+ brands but leans into Indian mass-market fashion — HRX (Hrithik Roshan's brand), Roadster, H&M, Mango, and fast-fashion labels. Better for budget Indian brands; weaker on premium international stock.
Winner: AJIO — for international brands and premium ethnic wear. Myntra for H&M and Indian mass-market labels.
2. Coupon Codes & Discounts
| Feature | AJIO | Myntra |
|---|---|---|
| New user discount | 60% OFF (AJIONEW) | 40% OFF (first order) |
| Flat off code | ₹300 OFF above ₹1499 | ₹200–300 OFF (varies by season) |
| Biggest sale discount | Up to 90% (Big Bold Sale) | Up to 80% (End of Reason Sale) |
| Bank cashback | 10% HDFC, 10% ICICI, 12% HSBC | 10% HDFC, 10% Kotak |
| Category-specific codes | Yes — 10+ category codes | Limited — mostly sitewide |
Winner: AJIO — the 60% new user code and category-specific coupon library consistently give better absolute savings.
3. Return Policy
AJIO: 30-day returns on most items. Free pickup in most cities. Innerwear, earrings, and items marked "Final Sale" are non-returnable. Refunds in 7–10 business days.
Myntra: 30-day returns with free pickup. More lenient on sale items — many End of Reason Sale items are still fully returnable even at deep discounts.
Winner: Myntra — marginally more flexible return policy on sale items and faster refunds in some cases.
4. Delivery Speed
Both platforms deliver in 3–7 business days for standard orders. AJIO's express delivery (1–2 days) is available in fewer cities than Myntra, which has slightly better same-day/next-day coverage in Tier-1 cities like Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore.
Winner: Myntra — by a slight margin in metro cities for express delivery.
5. App Experience
AJIO's app (4.4★ on Play Store) is clean, fast, and well-organised with strong filters. Myntra's app (4.5★) is slightly more polished with better outfit recommendation features, "style feed," and social shopping elements. Both are excellent and well-maintained.
Winner: Tie — Myntra wins on social/discovery features; AJIO wins on checkout speed and sale performance.
6. Pricing on the Same Item
We checked 20 identical products (same SKU where available) across both platforms. Result: AJIO was cheaper on 14/20 items, especially for Nike, Adidas, Levi's, and Superdry. Myntra was cheaper on H&M and Mango items where it has stronger partnerships.
Pro tip: Wishlist the same item on both platforms before any sale. Prices diverge significantly during sale events — sometimes by 20–30% for the same item.
Final Verdict: Use Both Strategically
- Use AJIO for: Nike/Adidas sneakers, Levi's jeans, Superdry, international brands, premium ethnic wear (BIBA, Manyavar), and any order where you can apply a bank offer
- Use Myntra for: H&M, HRX, Roadster, Mango, fast fashion, and items during the End of Reason Sale where their discounts sometimes beat AJIO
- Best overall strategy: Install both apps, use AJIONEW on your first AJIO order (60% off), and compare prices before any large purchase
