As new FDI rules kick in, Walmart may abandon Flipkart if it isn't able to see a long-term path to profitability.

holy shit!

But I somehow doubt they'll exit easily without putting up a fight. ours is huge population aka potential customers and they did spend 16B $ on flipkart

yes but china communist. single party so all decisions full and final. india is democracy so parties change. if congress coalition comes, walmart can spend $500 million in worst case and get the rules changed

That's their (Amazon and Flipkart) only hope for now. Even then, the so called middle-men who benefit from their exit, if they spent more money than Amazon and Flipkart together, there is no future for them. As everyone knows, it's all about lobbying and money, when it comes to such important decisions. No one bothers about consumers or the benefit of a single company or two.

they just need to outspend ril lol. in the end... things look bleak. comparisons with china are valid. we are slowing moving towards the same type of control over private industries here. in the name of nationalism and protectionism.

I dont think anyone would dare go against RIL. Because motabhai has too many people in pocket.

Foreign companies can fill pockets one time. But motabhai is the ultimate bread and butter.

@Sushubh I hope you don't sell information or reveal information of your members. 😛

I'm seriously sadden because of this news though. With the Walmart coming to India. There were some scope that Best Buy would follow.

Walmart vs. Amazon would have lead to that advancement in business that Amazon would have ordered their own Jet in India for doing more faster deliveries. (They buy scrap planes, doesn't cost a lot).

the only information i have on you is ip address from my understanding. rest is in your control. and i have dumped the ip database table in past and would probably do it again if i can find a safe method. the new upcoming it regulations would probably make that bit illegal assuming it is not illegal already.

 

[Deleted member 63558]

IP is everything. 🙁
