Market Outlook
The India online grocery market attained a value of USD 2 billion in 2018. The fluctuating market is highly dependent on investments but is expected to show a steady growth in the coming few years.
The online sales of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) grew by a robust 30% in March 2017, as compared to the previous year. While the online grocery industry accounts for only 4.6% of all distribution channel, it is expected to be the fastest growing distribution channel for groceries. India is one of the fastest developing economies in the world and is the fourth largest retail market globally after the US, China, and Japan. The country's retail sector is dominated by the food and grocery segment. Apparel and footwear, consumer durables, and IT are the other significant retail sectors in India. In 2018, the food and grocery retail sector in the Asian country was estimated to be worth USD 380 billion. However, the industry is dominated by traditional distributional channels such as 'kirana' stores or neighbourhood shops. Supermarkets and hypermarkets are also emerging trends within the sector. Currently, the online grocery industry in India accounts for only 0.3% of the total Indian retail industry.
While less than 2 million of Indian grocery consumers buy their groceries through online platforms, the industry has the potential for growth in the country, especially with the increased in the penetration of the internet. The industry will also find impetus in the overall growth of the e-commerce industry in the country, which is expected to attain USD 84 billion in 2021, growing from USD 24 billion in 2017. The online grocery industry in India is highly concentrated with Big Basket and Grofers dominating the industry with over 70% market share. While Big Basket is thriving in regional markets like Bangalore and Hyderabad, Grofers is the leading players in the Delhi-NCR region. Other niche players focussing on specific sectors like milk delivery and meat account for about 3% of the market share in the Indian industry.

Market Analysis
The online grocery market in India is being driven by the growing internet penetration in the country, along with a rise in digital awareness. India has more than 430 million internet users, and the number of internet users is expected to increase to about 635.8 million by 2021. The online grocery industry in India is also likely to be aided by the increasing availability of cheaper smartphones and declining data tariffs. With the government promoting digital literacy and the digital economy framework, the industry will receive a further impetus for its growth. The industry is expected to be aided by the consumers in Tier-I cities who are more adaptable to online shopping due to the availability of highspeed internet, better adaptability to mobile devices, and the logistical simplicity.
With the growth in disposable incomes and increasingly busier lifestyles, people are increasingly seeking out the customisable and convenient online platforms for grocery. Indian consumers are also starting to experiment with international brands and cuisines, further propelling the industry forward. They are also willing to pay more for premium and organic food. Further, the industry will be driven by the younger generation who are willing to spend more for convenience. The industry is also finding impetus in the rise in the number of women in the workforce.
The rise in investments of Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital funds into India's online retail and consumer internet sector will also aid the online grocery industry. An estimated USD 25 billion has been invested into these platforms over the past five years due to the size of the projected market and the high growth potential of the industry in the country. In the coming years, the industry is expected to be driven by consumers using local languages over English from Tier-I as well as Tier-II/III cities. Thus, major players are expected to adapt their platforms to local languages and introduce better voice search features to expand their potential consumer base. Other attractive offers like low delivery charges, fast delivery, cashback offers, and flexible return policies by e-commerce websites dealing with groceries are also expected to drive the industry in the coming years.
