This deal will help both the platforms to enter into the relatively small towns in India. As per stats, 60% customers during the Big Billion Days sale and Amazon Great Indian Festival sale, this year, belong to Tire-II cities only.

Alongside Flipkart, its rival, Amazon India is not far Behind. It already tied knots with some Indian retail chains including Shopper Stop Ltd. and Future Group. According to Tehnopak Advisors, the Indian modern retail market will be double to $188 billion by 2023 from the valuation of $79 billion in 2018.
