I went through a machine coding round centered on Flipkart Minutes, an instant delivery platform. The whole task felt very product-shaped: I was asked to implement the core system so customers could place orders for items to be delivered quickly.
The round was essentially one coding challenge where I had to build the solution end-to-end for the quick-commerce workflow. The prompt was framed around the platform’s core behavior, and I focused on getting a working implementation that covered the expected mechanics rather than just passing a couple of test cases.

I had an early machine-coding style interview that was very backend and very concrete. The focus was building a conference room booking system, and the round asked me to write full working code, not just sketches. There were different features and edge cases baked into the prompt, so the time pressure pushed me to keep thinking about correctness as I implemented.
The round itself lasted about 90 minutes for the coding portion. After I submitted, there wasn’t a separate deep-dive interview described—what stood out to me was how much the problem required a full working solution that could handle the extra constraints.
