Online shopping is a popular trend in India and it’s getting bigger evey day. Flipkart has changed the meaning of online shopping in India and has passed the inspiration to several other indian startups in this space. The other hand , world’s popular ecommerce brands like Amazon, eBay..etc also the early movers in this space.
In our analysis about the top 10 ecommerce companies in India, we have found majority of the companies either using .IN name as a primary domain name extension or atleast owning the .IN domain name. This again proved, if you are a company having India business interests “You need to own a .IN irrespective of you own a .COM or not”. If you notice this trend closely, there is a paradigm shift on the awareness of domain name extensions in India , still its in early stages and need to go long way.
