After Cloudtail’s sales, it can be said that Amazon India garnered more than Rs 10,000 crore in sales this fiscal.
"Cloudtail is an independent seller on the platform. Amazon.in is a neutral platform for all sellers. Amazon has so far impacted one lakh plus sellers in India. Over 50,000 of these are selling and growing their businesses profitably using our platform," the spokeswoman told ET.
Amazon India has plans to further expand in the country and has increased expansion multi-fold in the past years.

"We saw 250% growth in our seller base and emerged as the most visited site twice this year. We also received 65% orders from tier II cities and below and 70% of our traffic came from mobile," said Amit Agarwal, Amazon India's vice president and country manager.
Goldman Sachs has stated that India's e-commerce market will grow to $103 billion by 2019-20 from present $26 billion.
