Amazon sees India as a promising market for e-commerce growth, thanks to robust macroeconomic fundamentals and positive consumer sentiment, according to company executive Abhinav Singh. Singh highlighted that the company's recent expansion of 'zero referral fee' coverage to a wide range of products has received an encouraging response from sellers.
He emphasized that Amazon's long-term vision for India remains strong, with significant growth potential due to the country's demographic and economic advantages. The company plans to invest over USD 35 billion across its Indian businesses through 2030, focusing on AI-driven digitization, export growth, and job creation.
As e-commerce adoption broadens, Amazon is targeting smaller cities and middle-income groups by enhancing logistics and services.
