Myntra catalogue quality checks help ensure that products are represented accurately, consistently, and in a customer-friendly format. A catalogue may fail quality control when images, titles, attributes, sizing, brand information, product classification, legal declarations, or variation data do not match the product or the selected category requirements.
A QC failure can delay product activation, prevent a style from becoming live, create incorrect customer expectations, and increase returns. The correct solution is to read the exact rejection reason, verify the product source data, correct only the affected fields, and submit the catalogue again through the current Myntra Partner Portal workflow.
This guide explains common Myntra catalogue QC errors and practical solutions for fashion, footwear, beauty, accessories, home, and lifestyle products. Myntra can update portal screens, templates, attribute rules, and image requirements, so sellers should always follow the live validation message displayed against the affected style or SKU.
What Is Myntra Catalogue QC?
Myntra catalogue QC is the review and validation process used to check whether submitted product information is complete, accurate, category-appropriate, visually acceptable, and suitable for customers.
A catalogue submission may include:
- Brand
- Article type
- Gender or consumer group
- Product title
- Product description
- Colour
- Material or fabric
- Pattern
- Fit
- Neck, sleeve, closure, and other style attributes
- Size and measurements
- Product images
- MRP and selling information
- Country of origin
- Manufacturer, packer, or importer information
- Warranty or usage information where applicable
- SKU and style relationships
If required information is missing, contradictory, inaccurate, or not supported by the images, the catalogue can fail QC.
QC Failed vs Catalogue In Progress vs Product Not Live
| Status | Meaning | Recommended action |
|---|---|---|
| QC failed | The submission did not pass one or more catalogue checks | Open the rejection reason and correct the affected fields |
| In progress | The catalogue is still being processed or reviewed | Monitor the portal before resubmitting |
| Draft | The catalogue has not been completed or submitted | Complete all mandatory information and submit |
| Approved but not live | Catalogue data may be approved, but commercial or inventory requirements are incomplete | Check price, inventory, location, activation, and account status |
| Blocked or restricted | The brand, product, category, account, or compliance status requires action | Review the notification and submit valid evidence |
How to Find Myntra Catalogue QC Errors
- Sign in to the Myntra Partner Portal.
- Open the catalogue, listing, DIY cataloguing, or style-status section available in the account.
- Filter styles by QC Failed, Rejected, Action Required, or a similar status.
- Search using the style ID, seller SKU, barcode, brand, or product name.
- Open the detailed rejection message.
- Download an error report when multiple styles are affected.
- Record the exact field, error reason, correction, owner, and resubmission date.
Do not use a generic correction for all failed styles. Each rejection should be resolved according to the exact error and product evidence.
Common Myntra Catalogue QC Errors and Solutions
1. Incorrect Article Type
The article type controls many mandatory attributes. Selecting the wrong article type can trigger irrelevant fields, incorrect size requirements, or image rejection.
Check:
- The exact product type
- The intended customer use
- The category and subcategory
- The style construction
- The measurement template
Use the article type that best describes the physical product, not the keyword with the highest search volume.
2. Brand Name Mismatch
The brand entered in the catalogue should match the product label, packaging, invoices, trademark or authorization documents, and approved seller account information.
Common problems include:
- Different spelling
- Extra spaces or punctuation
- Using a parent company instead of the consumer-facing brand
- Submitting an unapproved brand
- Using a reseller name as the brand
3. Product Title Error
A product title should describe the product accurately without keyword stuffing, unsupported claims, contact information, or misleading promotional terms.
A practical structure may include:
Brand + consumer group + article type + key material, pattern, or style feature
Title construction can vary by category. Use the current category standard shown in the portal or seller guidance.
4. Colour Mismatch
The declared colour should match the visible product. Colour mismatch is common when sellers reuse images, upload the wrong variant, use an inaccurate colour family, or apply excessive editing.
Review:
- Primary colour
- Secondary colour
- Colour family
- Printed or multicolour classification
- Selected variant
- White balance and editing
5. Material or Fabric Mismatch
Material information must match the label and actual product composition.
Do not describe polyester as cotton, artificial leather as genuine leather, or plated metal as solid precious metal. Use composition details supported by the product or packaging.
6. Pattern, Fit, or Style Attribute Error
Attributes such as solid, printed, striped, slim fit, regular fit, round neck, collar, sleeve length, closure type, and hemline should match the images and construction.
When uncertain, inspect the product physically and compare it with the available attribute definitions.
7. Missing Mandatory Attributes
Required attributes depend on the article type. Examples may include:
- Gender
- Age group
- Fit
- Occasion
- Fabric
- Pattern
- Neck
- Sleeve length
- Closure
- Sole material
- Heel height
- Capacity
- Dimensions
- Skin type
- Ingredient or formulation information
Complete only verified values. Random attribute selection can pass one validation but create customer complaints and returns later.
8. Main Image Rejection
The main image should present the exact product clearly and according to the relevant category requirement.
Common image problems include:
- Low resolution
- Blurred product
- Incorrect background
- Product cropped at the edges
- Wrong angle
- Multiple unrelated products
- Visible watermark or contact details
- Incorrect colour
- Wrong pack quantity
- Excessive retouching
- Image does not match the selected SKU
9. Missing Required Image Views
Fashion and lifestyle categories may require multiple views so customers can understand fit, construction, design, back details, and product features.
Depending on the category, useful views may include:
- Front view
- Back view
- Side or angle view
- Detail close-up
- Model or mannequin view
- Package or included-components view
- Size or measurement reference where permitted
Use the live image requirement for the selected article type.
10. Image and Attribute Conflict
QC can fail when the product image shows a different sleeve, neckline, colour, pattern, closure, heel type, pack size, or design than the entered attributes.
Resolve the conflict by checking the physical product and updating the incorrect source, not by changing both sides without verification.
11. Size Chart Validation Error
Size charts should be complete, correctly mapped, and logically ordered. Common size issues include:
- Missing measurement
- Incorrect unit
- Values not in ascending order
- To-fit measurements mixed with garment measurements
- Inconsistent decimal format
- Duplicate size labels
- Wrong age or size mapping
- Men, women, or kids chart selected incorrectly
Maintain a verified master size chart for every product family and measurement method.
12. Variation or Style Grouping Error
Only genuine variants should be grouped together.
Common errors include:
- Different designs grouped as colours
- Different product types grouped together
- Duplicate size and colour combinations
- Wrong image mapped to a variant
- Incorrect barcode or SKU relationship
- Size sequence mismatch
13. Duplicate Catalogue or Style
Creating a new style for a product that already exists can create duplicate content, stock confusion, and mapping errors.
Search existing catalogue records before creating a new product. Raise a support ticket when a valid product has been mapped incorrectly.
14. Barcode, SKU, or Identifier Error
Every SKU and barcode should belong to the exact variant.
Check:
- SKU uniqueness
- Barcode uniqueness
- Size and colour mapping
- Pack quantity
- Style relationship
- Product label
15. MRP or Pack Quantity Mismatch
MRP, pack quantity, product title, images, and packaging should describe the same customer offer.
A set of two should not be listed with the image, title, or label of a single unit.
16. Legal Information Missing
Catalogue and seller information may need accurate manufacturer, packer, importer, country of origin, price, warranty, and other legally required details.
Use the exact information printed on the product or packaging and supported by business documents.
17. Beauty or Personal Care Compliance Error
Beauty catalogues may require additional product details such as net quantity, ingredients, usage instructions, expiry or shelf-life information, shade, formulation, skin type, safety warnings, and manufacturer or importer information.
Do not make medical, therapeutic, or performance claims that are not supported by the product label and applicable approvals.
18. Footwear Measurement Error
Footwear QC can fail when size systems, foot length, heel height, sole material, closure, toe shape, or product type are inconsistent.
Clearly distinguish between UK, US, EU, and other size systems where the portal requires it.
19. Home and Living Dimension Error
Home products may require product dimensions, package dimensions, quantity, material, pattern, and included components.
Do not confuse product measurements with shipping-package measurements.
20. Bulk Upload Processing Error
A file may upload but fail at row level because of:
- Wrong template
- Modified headers
- Unsupported characters
- Missing mandatory fields
- Invalid image URLs
- Incorrect numeric format
- Duplicate SKU or barcode
- Invalid attribute values
- Incorrect category mapping
- Broken variant relationships
Step-by-Step Myntra QC Correction Workflow
Step 1: Create a QC Error Tracker
Include:
- Style ID
- Seller SKU
- Barcode
- Brand
- Article type
- QC status
- Exact error reason
- Required correction
- Assigned owner
- Resubmission date
- Final status
Step 2: Review the Exact Error
Copy the error text into the tracker. Screenshots are useful when portal messages change after resubmission.
Step 3: Verify the Physical Product
Check the label, packaging, measurements, material, colour, style construction, included quantity, and identifiers.
Step 4: Verify Business Documents
Review invoices, trademark or authorization records, manufacturer details, importer details, licences, and category-specific evidence.
Step 5: Correct Only the Failed Fields
Avoid unnecessary changes to approved information.
Step 6: Validate Images and Variants
Confirm that every image belongs to the correct size, colour, style, and pack quantity.
Step 7: Submit a Small Test Batch
When many styles have the same issue, test a few products before updating the complete catalogue.
Step 8: Review Processing Results
Check row-level success and failure information. Do not rely only on the file-level upload message.
Step 9: Verify the Live Product Page
After approval, check:
- Title
- Brand
- Images
- Colour
- Size options
- Price and MRP
- Material and attributes
- Package quantity
- Availability
Step 10: Raise a Partner Support Ticket When Required
Include the style ID, SKU, barcode, error screenshot, upload reference, product images, and relevant documents.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
Guessing Attribute Values
Incorrect values may cause returns even if the catalogue becomes active.
Using the Same Image for Different Colours
Every colour variant should show the correct product.
Mixing Garment and Body Measurements
Use the correct measurement type consistently.
Reusing SKU or Barcode Values
Every sellable variant should have a clear and traceable identifier.
Changing Multiple Approved Fields
Unnecessary changes can introduce new errors.
Ignoring Row-Level Upload Results
A successful file upload does not mean every style was accepted.
Creating Duplicate Styles
Search the existing catalogue before creating a new entry.
Submitting Unsupported Claims
Product claims should match labels, documents, and applicable rules.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why did my Myntra catalogue fail QC?
Common reasons include incorrect article type, brand mismatch, image rejection, missing attributes, colour or material mismatch, invalid size data, identifier conflicts, and missing legal information.
2. Where can I see the Myntra QC rejection reason?
Open the relevant catalogue or style-status section in the Myntra Partner Portal and review the detailed rejection message.
3. Can incorrect images cause QC failure?
Yes. Images can fail because of quality, background, crop, product mismatch, wrong colour, missing views, or incorrect pack quantity.
4. Why is my Myntra size chart rejected?
The chart may contain missing measurements, incorrect units, non-ascending values, duplicate sizes, or an incorrect size-to-SKU mapping.
5. Can I correct Myntra catalogues in bulk?
Yes. Use the appropriate template, preserve its structure, upload a test batch, and review row-level processing results.
6. Should I create a new style when QC fails?

7. Why is an approved product not live?
Check inventory, price, activation status, fulfilment location, account status, and any remaining commercial requirements.
8. Can a brand mismatch block a Myntra catalogue?
Yes. The brand should match product labels, packaging, invoices, and approved documents.
9. How long does Myntra QC take?
Processing time can vary by submission type, category, workload, and whether additional review is required. Follow the live status in the Partner Portal.
10. Can DigiCommerce fix Myntra catalogue QC errors?
Yes. DigiCommerce can support catalogue audits, attribute corrections, size charts, images, variation mapping, bulk uploads, error reports, and support tickets.
Conclusion
Myntra catalogue QC failures should be solved through a controlled process. Read the exact rejection reason, verify the physical product and source documents, correct only the affected fields, test the update, review processing results, and confirm the approved product on the live platform.
Most Myntra catalogue errors are connected to article type, brand, title, images, colour, material, mandatory attributes, sizing, variations, identifiers, legal information, or bulk-file structure. A verified product master, locked size charts, and a pre-submission QC checklist can reduce repeated failures.
