Not only online market but also shopping malls like big bazzar easy day club and the big shopping complex they selling their products in lessss amount the local shopkeepers not getting the product at low rate….they destroying the Indian Market and breaking the bone of India so India government has to stop this unjustice
In most of the big shopping malls like city centres, lulu malls, Express Avenues the selling price of any product is sky rocketing, they are putting in all the rental shares, AC fee everything in the end user retail price. Added to it, if the consumer go into local shops they are getting mostly duplicate products, sellers want to become king overnight that much profit they are keeping in their price. Plus mostly they dont accept return or exchange unless it is from a known favourable customer. And too much of middlemen brokers in almost every service which puts up into higher price for the end user without any advantage to the farmers who are growing them. That’s why people are opting for online sales wherein the price is competitive but trading is far more comfortable.
There are at the most 30 Crore households in the country assuming 5 members per household. I don’t think there are 7 Crore shopkeepers for 30 Crore households. They are inflating their numbers to have more leverage.
Why are the shop keepers not joining forces with either Flipkart or Amazon to sell their products online. What is not stated here is how many Indian companies are making money by partnering with both of the e-commerce giants. People like to shop online. Oh by the way local shop keepers have grown 65% in India so how can they say it is the e-commerce companies fault. They are not growing because either they are high priced or low quality products! Competition helps everyone!
I can make this categorical statement. Across length and breadth of India, vast majority of the traders are cheats. They palm off duplicate products, they , they sell sub-standard products, refuse to take back defective goods, short change the customers, they give 40 paise chocolate in place of one rupee change. They adopt the old Sanskrit adage “Vyaparam droha chintanam” – Trading is cheating the customer”. With on-line suppliers, we have none of thes problems. Returned goods are taken back and money refunded without inconvenient questions. Prices are certainly competitive. Foolish central government is needlessly interfering and imposing restrictions on on-line market places for appeasing these cheats. They will perish if they can’t live with competition.
