E-commerce, in India is still a new market when compared to western countries but has huge potential as seen with the large number of population we have. Recently in a past few years , internet have been more prominent in India and we can see large number of transactions online for mobile banking , online sale purchase and more. In short indian users are getting trust on using their credit cards online slowly .
Recently we have seen success stories for flipkart ,infibeam and more ecommerce sites coming up , but they have precisely the same thing when it comes to design. Each of them have more or less same type of design , user interface or so. And to be more specific with my views , when compared each of them , they more or less seem to copy Amazon.com (The world’s leading ecommerce solution). Navigation menu is almost same for each site .
Now Amazon is coming to India , i would seriously wish to see some innovation as Indian E-commerce is concerned .Here you can see the proof :

But the question is , Is Indian E-commerce a clone industry ?
Not just with Retailing , but the next virgin market in India i.e the coupon industry too started with a Groupon clone i.e SnapDeal. And continuing that Desidime have come up with almost a clone and same concept of slickdeals and fatwallet. And may be sooner we gonna see some clones to yipit or some more unique ecommerce ventures from west and implemented in India.
Can’t we expect some innovation here ? Share your thoughts !!.
