From mobile and computer accessories to soft toys and artificial jewellery, Indian consumers are slowly getting hooked to Alibaba. "While most of the items shipped are low-ticket, ranging from Rs 200 to Rs 2,000 — the maximum demand for such products is from tier III and IV towns," adds the official. "And that's what present ecommerce players in India are missing out."


How does one explain the huge price difference? It's simple math, he says. As far as electronics items are concerned, over 90% of them are sourced from China. An Indian seller, after getting the product from China, adds to it his margin, logistics cost, inventory holding cost and other taxes, which inflate its price.
