Delhivery, backed by Tiger Global, even confirmed that it has had talks with Alibaba last month for a possible partnership. "We have discussed how best we can provide fulfilment for Alibaba, which is still finalising its India strategy. There is no official agreement yet," said Sahil Barua, Delhivery CEO.
Delhivery has been in the market for five years now, and has been under pressure to diversify its business portfolio especially after Flipkart moved some of its logistics business to its in-house logistics arm
Ekart, on the other hand, has recently tied up with third-party players like Paytm, ShopClues and Jabong, which has made it an emerging name in the B2B logistics industry.
