E-commerce in India to touch $60 billion by

2023
Telecom companies will be the biggest e-commerce players in India over the next couple of years,
Singhal said. Singhal pointed out that there is limited access to financial capital -- the industry needs
FDI in e-commerce and free access to capital. Logistics, spoiling consumers with unreasonable
promises, and poor Internet connectivity will be some of the challenges for e-commerce in India.
Nitin Bawankule, Industry Director, Google, said, "The signs are all encouraging. Air tickets and train
tickets have been the earliest successes of e-commerce in India.
The size of the industry was USD 1.5 billion in 2012 (exclusive of tickets) and grew to USD 2.5 to 2.8
billion in 2013. The number of online shoppers has more than doubled - 20 million shoppers in 2013
from 8 mn in 2012. The average consumer basket has grown by 50-80 per cent online."
