INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

The number of internet subscribers in India is expected to increase from 446 million as on December 2017 to nearly 900 million by FY22 primarily driven by growth in wireless broadband services. Moreover, the fall in data prices coupled with increase in availability and affordability of smart phones, has resulted in users increasingly consuming content on their mobile devices. The digital classified market is expected to grow at a 14% CAGR over FY17-22 to reach a size of Rs. 77mn in FY22. The e-commerce market in India was estimated to be around INR 2,350 billion in 2017 and is projected to continue growing to reach INR 5,350 billion by 2020.

Additionally, the B2B digital classified market is estimated to more than double to Rs12bn by FY22, representing a growth of 18.5% CAGR over FY17-22.
