"The response was as per expectation with majority members coming out and telling us that they have stopped selling on Snapdeal. We also collected data of disputes ranging fromRs 1,000 to Rs 1.5 crore which are stuck since the past 6-8 months due to which sellers have stopped selling. We hope (that) either the Snapdeal management or government takes these cases and clears the pending dues,” an AIOVA spokesperson told ET.
However, Snapdeal has rejected the allegations. "Seller dues are processed and settled as per predefined payments cycles, information of which is available with the sellers. There are no outstanding payments to sellers. In fact, earlier this week we have further reduced the payment cycle for SD+ sellers, which will enable them to receive their payments 40% faster,” Snapdeal told ET in a statement.
