Factors like hectic lifestyles, inflating per capita incomes, increasing penetration of the Internet, rising utilization of smartphones, and the growing trend of fast fashion are escalating the demand for premium clothing and cosmetics through online portals.

Moreover, the advantages of B2C e-commerce services, such as convenience, 24/7 delivery, easy return policies, multiple payment options, and easy navigation of product categories, are increasing their adoption in the electronics, automotive, and travel and tourism industries worldwide.
