  • Flipkart All Set To Takeover Rival Snapdeal

    Flipkart All Set To Takeover Rival Snapdeal

    Flipkart is reportedly closing in on taking over e-commerce rivals Snapdeal. A report claims that the Snapdeal board has accepted Flipkart’s offer in the region of $900-$950 million last week. The future of Snapdeal has been a topic of discussion for the longest time and looks like the speculations will finally end now as the deal reaches a completion.

    Snapdeal has raised over $1.5 billion over the years including, from investors such Alibaba and Softbank. Snapdeal was valued at $6.5 billion as recently as 2015 and is now set to be taken over by Flipkart for under $1 billion. It has also been reported that other assets such as FreeCharge, which Snapdal acquired two years ago will be sold off to Axis Bank.

    Flipkart’s new CEO Kalyan Krishnamurthy, who took up the position in January of this year seems to be on the track of resurging the e-commerce giants. Under his leadership, Flipkart looks to be preparing to go head-on against global e-commerce leader Amazon. Flipkart also recently raised funding of $1.4 billion from eBay, Microsoft and Tencent at a valuation of $11.4 billion. All in the while acquiring eBay.in under its portfolio.

    eBay recently sold its India business, eBay India Private Limited, to Flipkart.

    With Snapdeal’s acquisition, Flipkart and Amazon will be the only players in the e-commerce space and this duopoly is a bad news for any other up-and-coming e-commerce player. Flipkart seems to be making up the ground it lost to Amazon in the recent past and this aggressive Snapdeal acquisition is just another step towards gaining back that power position.

    Amazon’s heavy investments in their Indian businesses, as much as $5 billion, since it launched India operations in late-2012 indicate that Amazon is serious about turning this duopoly into a monopoly. The e-commerce war is in full swing and it’ll be interesting to see how this pans out in the coming years.

  • Anytime May Be Amazon’s Answer to WhatsApp and Messenger

    Anytime May Be Amazon’s Answer to WhatsApp and Messenger

    With the ever increasing messaging apps, here’s another name to add to the messaging app consortium. Though with Facebook, Apple and Google, the messaging apps have reached a saturation point, it reportedly hasn’t stopped Amazon from taking a shot at it. According to reports, Amazon has been working on it’s own messaging app for Android, iOS and desktop.

    While it’s a little too early to speculate the app’s features, the Anytime app is rumored to be a full-featured, standalone messaging app for smartphones, tablets, PCs and smart watches.  Designed to let people chat via text and video, exchange photos with filters, play games etc. Anytime will allow the users to engage with other Amazon services like making reservations, shopping, business interactions etc while sharing all this with your messaging buddies. The app is also said to include all the mainstay features like message encryption, stickers  to begin with and then voice and video calls at a later stage.

    Amazon has also been reported to survey its customer base about the potential features. Some of which include, groups, gaming, filters for images and video, and personal along with business chats.

    The app is also apparently different from the likes of WhatsApp and messenger in the following ways.

    • Reportedly, only a name will be required to reach out to another user.
    • Unlike WhatsApp, Anytime might not be dependent on phone numbers of users.
    • Only Twitter-style @ mentions will be needed to share photos or bring people into conversations.
    • The chats can be color-coded just in case you need to highlight the  important ones.

    Amazon has already paved it’s way in the messaging and communications market with the launch of Chime- A video conferencing app for business users.  Provided the rumors are correct, a chat app would offer Amazon another way to bring people into its stride. Anytime is reported to be  designed to compete against messaging apps such as Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp etc and the fact that no phone number is needed to registerer the app maybe something that will excite potential users.

  • Amazon to Launch Amazon Prime in India This Year for Rs 3999

    Amazon to Launch Amazon Prime in India This Year for Rs 3999

    Amazon Prime is one of the best subscription services offered by the company and there are many benefits of becoming a Prime member. Some of which include free two day shipping, Amazon Prime Video library which works like Netflix, unlimited music streaming via Amazon Prime Music and Prime Photos give you unlimited Photo storage. You will also get a 30 minute heads up to Amazon instant deals and almost a million e-books.

    Amazon also delivers better customer support to Prime members, with express exchanges and returns. The company has stayed away from a membership model in India, due to several government restrictions and also due to it being a grey area with respect to success expected from said model in India. Flipkart tried and failed with a similar model offering next day shipping for a yearly fees for Rs 500 and later discontinued the service without informing the consumers.Flipkart has now brought back the Flipkart First service and claims a lot of people have subscribed to it.

    amazon-prime-day

     

    The Amazon fulfilled service works in the same way however does not offer up free shipping typically charging a couple hundred rupees for overnight delivery.

    Amazon is working hard to bring its prime service to what is now a large online community that is ready to consume content online, on there phones, tablets, computers and smart TVs.

    Amazon-Prime-boxSomeone close to the Amazon Prime launch in India claims that the challenges are immense in bringing about the kind of awareness that is required to launch and monetise a feature like this. Netflix’s recent launch has seen great appreciation from Indian consumers and Amazon is taking that data to understand subscription trends in India.

     

    With Amazon racing fast to reach the number one E-Commerce spot in India, services like these will possibly help the company reach new consumers. Amazon offers prime in the US for $99 for a year which roughly translates to Rs. 6700. Our source exclaims that the price may turn out to be too high for the India region, and Amazon is known to offer differential pricing based on region.

    Amazon is planning to launch Prime services, most of them, in 2016, with a yearly subscription as low as Rs 3999.

    While we are not sure if Amazon will be able to launch the whole suite of Prime services in the coming months, it will however, be a great add-on to what seems to be a growing appreciation for customer support and service in India.

     

  • Flipkart Plays Sore Loser in the Moto G4 Launch

    Flipkart Plays Sore Loser in the Moto G4 Launch

    Flipkart sees some bad days while the company is seeing a mark down in share value by up to 27%, a lot of manufacturers are choosing to go with other Online e-commerce players which offer not only better customer support but have better business practices.

    A mutual fund managed by Morgan Stanley has recently marked down the value of Flipkart’s shares by 27%, indicating that global investors believe India’s largest internet company is overvalued.

    Flipkart, who had in a press release, mentioned that the value of the company is at $15.2 billion right now. A 27% fall in Flipkart’s share price would imply Flipkart’s valuation now is around $11 billion vs. the 15.2 billion claimed.

    But, yesterday’s launch of the Moto G4 was an indication of one of many manufacturers including Lenovo, and now Lenovo-owned Moto, who have shifted their sales to the like of Amazon with higher levels of customer satisfaction. Xiaomi, a brand who had launched in the country with Flipkart has also turned to Amazon this year for offering the Redmi Note 3.

    Losing out on flash sales and exclusive launches means that E-commerce giants like Flipkart will also lose out on significant and quick revenues, a large chunk of traffic and customer loyalty.

    Flipkart today released a print ad reading  #motoOnFlipkart which is identical to the advertisement done by Amazon for their Moto on Amazon.
