The eCommerce industry in India is predicted to rise by 24% this year. This means the Indian online retail industry could be worth 47.8 billion dollars at the end of 2020. The growth rate of India’s eCommerce was decreased in 2017-19, but surprisingly 2019-20 is dispensing steady demand growth despite the inferior retail economy environment.

The factual miracle turned due to higher adoption of eCommerce by the new customer from the Tie-3,4 cities, towns and villages too.
