    1. Macro Level Current Business Environment

    In the past few years, India has proved to be nectar for major MNCs around the world. With

    favourable policies, India is one of the most favourable destinations for FDI.

    Opportunity in Current Business environment

    India Economy

    Among the poorest countries in terms of per capita income

    But:

    High growth rate (but low agriculture growth rate)

    High investment/savings rate

    Low share of agriculture in GDP (but high services share)

    More diversified industrial structure

    Foreign exchange constraints less binding?

    Strengths of Indian Economy

    High GDP growth rate

    High growth in merchandise exports (though imports grew even faster)

    High growth in services trade

    High capital flows

    Not affected much by the global crisis

    Overall positive outlook for India

    2. Current Retail Online Industry

    Compared to the more mature and far bigger online retail markets in the U.S. and Europe, Indias e-

    commerce sales are relatively small. They are estimated at about $1.6 billion by market research

    firms such as Forrester Research Inc. and some Indian e-commerce venture capital firms.

    But the Indian direct-to-consumer e-commerce market is likely to double in size to more than $3

    billion within three years, and could grow to reach $15 billion by 2017. Indias online customer base

    of around 20 million shoppers could increase as much as 1400% and reach 300 million shoppers

    within 10 years. Its an exciting time to be in e-commerce in India, because even though the

    market has been developing since 2000 its still very early on in the development stage.

    Secure payments processing remains a challenge, order fulfilment and package delivery to 60% of

    the Indian population that lives outside of major cities such as Mumbai and New Delhi is

    problematic, and India has a very low percentage of consumers with a credit or debit card

    compared with other countries such as the U.S. and Europe. On the plus side, the number of Indian

    consumers with a smartphone connected to the mobile Internet could approach 220 million within

    the next 10 years

    Today the Indian online retailing market has thousands of individual e-commerce sites and only

    about 80 well-known online retail companies such as Flipkart.com, a six-year old web-only mass

    merchant with annual sales of about $100 million.

    Catering to Indian consumers that connect to the web via mobile phones will be key to e-commerce

    success in India. Indias emerging base of online shoppers will be consumers age 25 and under with

    web-enabled smartphones who are active users of social media. India has one of biggest bases of

    Facebook Fans in the world. There are 62.7 million Facebook users in India, representing 68% of the

    countrys online population, according to SocialBakers, which tracks activity on social networks.

    In addition, the online shopper base in India will be increasingly females who will shop with

    increasing frequency online. Today the average consumer in India who shops online may do two or

    three transactions per month. In just a couple years as the market grows and matures, the average

    online shopper could be doing more like four to five transactions per month.

    During a keynote speech at eTailing India Expo, Matrix Venture capitalist Bajaj told attendees that

    venture capital funding of Indian e-commerce companies, especially smaller start-ups, is improving.

    The good news is that India now has 15 or so seed funds to invest in smaller start-ups, Bajaj says.

    Its a good time to be bullish on e-commerce in India.

    5. FlipKart Organization Structures and Leadership Team

    Participative and corporate Leadership.

    Sachin Bansal, CEO and one of the co-founders of Flipkart

    Binny Bansal other co-founders of Flipkart

    Indias largest e-tailer which clocked sales (our guess of gross merchandise value or

    GMV) of Rs 500 crore (factoring out the recent ups and downs in forex rates, around

    $100 million) in FY2011-12, a ten-time increase from FY2010-11. The key to

    success has been the execution and that essentially means the people working for

    Flipkart. Currently, the company has on board a 4,800-strong team.

    Ravi Vora (joined in March 2011), VP (marketing), seems to be the right hand man

    of the Bansals. This IIM-Bangalore alumnus has been instrumental in setting up the

    marketing function and spearheading the positioning and branding strategy of the

    company. The Fairy tale and No kidding, no worries ad campaigns have given

    Brand Flipkart a considerable push/facelift both in terms of revenues and customer

    base.

    Mekin Maheshwari (since Sept 2009), president (engineering) at Flipkart.com, is

    responsible for leading the engineering team, scaling up Flipkarts business at a rapid

    speed. His LinkedIn profile says, I help make e-commerce happen in India. A

    bachelor of engineering in Information Science from Visvesvaraya Technological

    University, Maheshwari had earlier worked with Yahoo!, Ugenie and Lulu (post its

    acquisition by Ugenie).

    Ankit Nagori (in Flipkart since 2010), VP (categories), is an IIT-Guwahati alumnus

    who heads multiple categories and helps the e-tailer build its team across multiple

    31

    offices. After acquiring Letsbuy.com a few months ago in a bid to boost its

    electronics product catalogue going forward and launching the digital music store

    Flyte, Flipkart has expanded into pens & stationery, home appliances, perfumes and

    most recently bags, belts & luggage.

    Karandeep Singh (joined the company in January 2012), Flipkart CFO, is the one

    who handles all aspects of finance and corporate governance. Within weeks after he

    joined last December, Flipkart reportedly raised a mega round of funding from

    existing investors and also announced the acquisition of Letsbuy.

    Sameer Nigam (joined in October 2011), VP (digital business), was the founder of

    Mime360.com, a digital distribution platform solution which hosts music streaming

    for labels like Saregama, Universal Music and Inreco, which was acquired by

    Flipkart last October. This made public Flipkarts plans of entering the digital

    distribution domain and the company did launch Flyte, one of Indias largest legal

    online music stores.

    Maneesh Mittal (been with Flipkart since September 2009), VP (operations), is a

    B.Tech from IIT-Delhi. Although he joined the e-commerce company as a general

    manager, he went on to become AVP (warehousing) and was finally elevated to VP

    last year.

    Sujeet Kumar (joined in December 2008), president (operations) at Flipkart, is a

    B.Tech in Civil Engineering from IIT Delhi. He has been there for quite some time

    and has been responsible for building the company, along with the Bansals. Kumar

    oversees supply chain, warehousing and logistics, and is also in charge of business

    through smooth operations at every level.
