Also: Flipkart & Amazon Clocked $2 Billion Plus In Revenue
Reportedly both Walmart-owned Flipkart and Amazon India have chucked in more than $2.3 billion in revenue during the Flipkart Big Billion Day sale and Amazon Great Indian Festival last week. Flipkart claimed that it had over 70 percent share of entire Indian e-commerce during the day Big Billions Day sale.
As per a RedSeer consulting report, Flipkart had more than half of GMV for the entire e-commerce industry during those five days of the sale. Flipkart and Amazon had a 62-38 share in the face off.
Interestingly Amazon India strongly disputed the figures saying their gross sales nearly doubled from the last year’s Great Indian Festival sale, and Amazon has a higher share.
The Amazon India spokesperson said that the RedSeer reports are speculative and lack robust and credible methodology.
Flipkart has stayed ahead of Amazon all these years, but the company has worked hard through to match the capabilities. The Dussehra version of the Amazon Great Indian Festival has Prime sign-ups crossing 3X, 60 percent new customer sign-ups and 99 percent orders from pin codes across India in just 4 days.
We will have to wait till the official figures are out by the next quarter. Stay tuned for further updates!
