E-commerce in India has rapidly grown, driven by internet access, smartphones, and digital payments. A new trend, Quick Commerce (Q-commerce), focuses on ultra-fast delivery of essentials like groceries and pharmaceuticals within 10 to 30 minutes, with companies like Zepto, Blinkit, and Swiggy Instamart leading the way.
Q-commerce caters to consumers needing urgent products, using AI, micro-warehouses, and digital payments for efficient fulfillment. It’s gaining traction due to urbanization and busy lifestyles.
However, Q-commerce faces challenges like high costs, sustainability concerns, and profitability struggles. Innovations in AI logistics and eco-friendly solutions are expected to support its continued growth in India’s digital economy.
