Welcome Amazon to India.E-commerce competition gets more competitive now

World's largest online retailer Amazon entered the Indian e-commerce industry with online market place amazon.in. Just now it has started with Books and Movies & TV with additional categories like mobiles,cameras will be coming soon.

Some of the perks given by amazon to Indian users are :

The site is just now designed as a market place that provides facility for transactions between buyers and sellers.Restrictions on foreign direct investment (FDI) policies have prevented Amazon to sell directly to Indian customers.

With 24 X 7 customer support some features to attract Indian customers were secure payments 30 days return but I think the most think which we attract Book lovers is no minimum fee for free delivery.

I though they might have also included the gift card feature and Hence I would be able to use my global Amazon gift card balance in Indian site but hard luck, no such feature as of now . But Hopes alive and  expect to receive great offers from the biggest online retailer to attract customers from its rivalries like flipkart,snapdeal.

But as an Indian I would request Indian users to still use domestic companies :)
