    In March, Flipkart had 5 lakh daily shipments while Amazon had 4.5; Snapdeal, now at fifth in terms of volume, had just 30,000 shipments a day.

    Meanwhile, Paytm Mall and ShopClues are tying at third.

    Amazon enters the Indian market: Challenges the leaders

  • Amazon entered the Indian market only in June 2013, many years after Flipkart (2007) and Snapdeal (2010). However, it is now catching up with its two local rivals in the ongoing race to the top of India's e-commerce market.

  • Amazon pipped Snapdeal to become the 2nd largest online marketplace in India.

    While Flipkart's and Snapdeal's shipments fell to 37% and 14-15% respectively, Amazon's shipments saw a massive increase, from 14% to 24% in the same time frame.

    Analysts contend that if no new company enters the e-commerce segment, it will be a race between Flipkart and Amazon by the end of 2016.

  • Amazon Inc announced that it would invest an additional $3 billion in India to take on local rivals Flipkart and Snapdeal.

    This highlights Amazon's ultra-aggressive spending on "discounts, advertising, logistics and other things to achieve its ambition of becoming the largest e-commerce company in India."

    A sizeable chunk of this investment will go towards building web services systems in India.

    Analysts said that Amazon had been riding on top for almost a month.

    However, in terms of 'monthly active users of the app', Flipkart still led the way.

    While 4.5% Flipkart users used the app every day, only 2.7% Amazon users did so.
