India's biggest online retailers have sharply reduced their service after the government ordered a three-week lockdown on residents across the country in response to the coronavirus pandemic.

Flipkart, which is owned by Walmart (WMT), announced Wednesday that it was suspending services after authorities called for a "complete" lockdown for the entire population of 1.3 billion people, directing most stores, offices and factories to shut down.

"We urge you to stay at home to be safe," Flipkart said in a statement. "Our promise is that we will be back to serve you as soon as possible."
