alumni of Indian Institute of Technology Delhi and worked for
Amazon.com before quitting and founding their own company.

of the top 100 Indian sites and was credited for being India's largest
online bookseller with over 10 million titles on offer.
Flipkart broke even in March 2010 and claims to have had at least
100% growth every quarter since its founding.

21. conclusion
Flipkart, the first billion dollar Internet company from
India(going by 2015 estimates )is by far the leading online
store in the nation.
Now that Amazon is reportedly entering India in early
2012, this news becomes even more significant,
considering that Amazon has previously, and
unsuccessfully, tried acquiring the company, with Flipkart
demanding a very high buyout price.
With online retail industry in India pegged to reach $1.5
billion (2015), sources suggest that e-commerce is just
hotting up in India and we may soon seen many more
Internet companies achieving similar success.
