People in India, like most of the global citizens, have now developed a taste for ordering things online and getting them shipped to their doorstep. The last two decades have been a testimonial of the visible change in the lifestyle of the people.
After the concept of economic liberalization began to take shape in India, which was initiated in the year 1991, the people here took to shopping for commodities those were global in nature of their availability.
Soon after, the use of internet and mobile phones became a regular thing and that brought upon a change on how a consumer will approach the market while buying a commodity. Eventually, with the availability of e-commerce websites in the 21st century people turned to internet and mobile phones to buy products online.
