TechGraph: How has the ongoing covid wave affected the e-commerce business in India? What are your initiatives to help businesses come back on track?
Punit Sindhwani: Indian e-commerce, like its counterparts globally, received a shot in the arm with the recent pandemic. The growth seen in the last 2 years surpassed even long-term projections in most cases.
The recent growth has brought about a slew of developments in the industry – penetration, contribution to retail sales, the share of ad spends, business models, regulations, competition, and support ecosystem of enablers have all gone up.
We have seen a lot of evolution, not just in focus from brands and sellers on e-commerce, but also a lot of innovation around intelligence, strategy, and maturity towards the same. In today’s highly competitive environment, intelligent decision-making and informed strategy have become essential to survive and thrive.
The pandemic has been an inflection point for the eCommerce industry in India as more consumers have adapted to online shopping. Consumer brands of all sizes are betting big on eCommerce to sell their products. Companies selling products online have grown at an astonishing rate.
However, the flip side of this growth is that competition is increasing, and brands must understand all aspects of eCommerce strategy to stay on topBrands are capitalizing on this opportunity by utilizing data analytics that allows them to ensure higher stock availability, predict risks, and optimize their strategies to reach the targeted audience with greater accuracy. Keeping an eye on the hygiene and growth metrics across all marketplaces where a brand is looking to expand its business is crucial.
