There are so many online market plces in India. Its a steep competition. It was bound to happen as We Indians are a billion strong market place. Flip kart was the 1st Indian Company that grabbed the market. Amazon took time to launch in India amd Flipkart stole the initial thunder. I was feeling real pround that the Indian online market is ruled by an Indian company. It was desi.
But soon that birw changed. Amazon entered in to the market place with a bang and I gradually shifted from Flipkart to Amazon inspite of supportimg flipkrt at an emotional level.
Why I prefered Amazon?
Amazon did some thing that flip kart couldn't do it for me many times over. Mine is a touring based job for Govt. Of India where in I regularly have to go to rural areas. Some timw I need to stay for around 2 months and I also need to order things. Flipkart always says to me - that we cannot provide the facility to your place. Being an Indian birn company thats a real shame. Flip kart forgot that millions of Indians live in rural Indians. Amazon was a surprise in that aspect. It delivered the product to each and every rural area I was posted in. I was very inpressed with the service. An american originated company is delivering products to some of the moat rural parts in India. Big Thumbs Up.
FINAL VERDICT:
AmaIn India is a great company I will prefer it more than any other company.
