India's Festive E-commerce Growth Driven by Quick Commerce and Diverse Consumer Demand
India's e-commerce and quick commerce sectors are poised for strong growth this festive season, with spending expected to rise by 25-29%, reaching around Rs 1.5 lakh crore. Consumers are balancing premium purchases, especially in electronics, with bargain hunting amid rising prices. Quick commerce is expanding beyond groceries into fashion, electronics, and beauty, gaining market share. Analysts project India's e-commerce market to nearly triple to USD 345 billion by 2030, driven by quick commerce growth and AI integration, with e-commerce accounting for 10-12% of retail spending by decade's end.
