Panel I: Indian E-Commerce: Staying Power, Profitability & Unit Economics Are Back
With an aggressive competition for market share, huge advertising spends and aggressive customer acquisition methods, are the Indian e-commerce players building sustainable businesses with visibility on their bottomline? Will these e-commerce stories survive if capital supply dries up? What will differentiate the winners from those who might not make it? Are there businesses which are unhealthy and ripe enough to burst? How are the unit economics working for ecommerce players today?
