Comparison chart of e-commerce (online shopping) websites in India
Since the onset of online marketing in India, the rise of e-commerce websites has been exceptional.
It is said that 15 % of Indian population now prefers online shopping to the tedious process of physical shopping at retail stores.
Also, the amount of discounts availed while shopping online far exceeds the age old storefront shopping.
We list below few of the most famous online shopping websites in India:
Flipkart versus Snapdeal versus Amazon versus HomeShop18

Website | Return schemes | Customer service | Website traffic ranking in India (Alexa) | Our overall verdict among big 4 |
Flipkart | 4/5 | 4/5 | 6 | 1 |

Please note that websites with consumer to consumer sales service have been excluded.
Yebhi very recently became a product aggregator working with Flipkart, Jabong, Myntra and other online brands. It is hence excluded from above list.
Overall, Flipkart, Amazon and Snapdeal are definitely ruling the e-commerce seen as of now while Jabong is settling down as a major online fashion store.
Flipkart’s mobile app is also the most used among the three big shots.
We hope the above comparison could help you in one way or the other with this more convenient mode of shopping.

I bought home decors on Jabong and price is huge. I searched for Jabong offers and found coupons from saveplus. You can use coupons while purchasing.

Interesting comparison. So, which is best for women/man accessories as per you.
Flipkart, Jabong, Amazon. What is important is the seller. If seller is WSRetail, go for flipkart without a second thought.
Excellent comparison
Thanks
