30 min back received flury of OTPs from vendors like Flipkart, Apollo, snapdeal, lenskart, Netmeds and Dominos. All the otps total 42 received in 1-2 minutes. From this vendors last I gave my number to Apollo medical store to buy medicines not the first time though. Anyone faced such issue anytime?
Note: I'm on airtel network.

Thanks!

This happens when there is ddos based attack. I assume all the vendors you mentioned must be using a same sms provider
 
Check your credit card/ ATM cards, specially if this contact number is connected to your bank accounts/ CC company.
And please do not turn off your phone. Heard about few frauds like this back in India.

Bit paranoid suggestion- check if your phone is compromised or not. Do a scan, check which apps have sms access. If even more paranoid, shift your sim to a known good phone for temp use, till you are sure everything is ok.
