E-COMMERCE

Fastest growing e-commerce market in the World

The Indian e-commerce industry has been on an upward growth trajectory. In FY
2022-23, Government e-marketplace (GeM) registered its highest ever Gross
Merchandise Value of $2011 Bn. GeM has achieved a cumulative GMV of more than
INR 9.82 Lakh Cr (since inception) as on 30th July 2024. Hence, considering the
saving estimates as reported above, GeM has facilitated savings worth more than
INR 40,000 Cr since its inception. As per TRAI’s Indian Telecom Services
Performance Indicators Apr-Jun 2024, the internet subscribers in India as of
Sept 2024, are over 969 Mn, and the number of telephone subscribers as of Aug
2024 is over 1200 Mn.

The e-commerce industry in India is growing on levers such as increased
smartphone penetration, increased affluence and low data prices, providing
impetus for e-retail growth. With over 950 Mn users, India is the 2nd largest
internet market in the world with 131.16 Lakh Cr UPI transactions in FY 2023-24.

Close to 100% of pin codes in India have seen e-commerce adoption. More than 60%
of transactions and orders in India come from tier two cities and smaller towns.
The e-commerce trend is gaining major popularity even in tier-2 and tier– 3
cities as they now make up nearly half of all shoppers and contribute three of
every five orders for leading e-retail platforms. The average selling price
(ASP) in tier-2 and smaller towns is only marginally lower than in tier-1/metro
cities. Electronics and apparel make up nearly 70% of the e-commerce market,
when evaluated against transaction value. Other new upcoming categories within
e-commerce include ed-tech, hyperlocal and food-tech.

ONDC, a network launched by the Government of India in 2022, aims to provide
equal opportunities to MSMEs to thrive in digital commerce and democratize
e-commerce. In 2022, Indian e-commerce and consumer internet companies raised
$15.4 Bn in PE/VC funding, 2x increase from $8.2 Bn in 2020.
