Default Transplant a flowering plant

Hi,

Is it advisable to transplant a chilli plant to a bigger pot now that it has
started to flower ?

Thanks for your advice,
Jackie

Any plant if shocked may drop its flowers - I'd advise to leave it for
now.

Yes. The growing season is over, even if the plant is indoors (too
little light). Don't repot until (say) early March - chillis like
a lot of light.
