Flipkart has decided not to take up 40% of the office space in its new campus in Embassy tech village in Bengaluru even as the country’s biggest ecommerce company looks to cut costs and reduce losses, said multiple people aware of the matter. Flipkart, which is undergoing a restructuring drive, will now take 1.2 million sq ft office space in the new campus as opposed to the earlier plan of occupying 2 million sq ft in two phases.
