Paytm, India’s largest mobile payments and commerce platform, has invited selected women sellers from across India (Karnataka, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh and Delhi/NCR) to interact with their senior management in formulating a long term future roadmap for supporting women entrepreneurs in the country.
Vice President Paytm, Sudhanshu Gupta, was quoted by agencies as saying, “We have seen a lot of women entrepreneurs register on our platform and take a keen interest in participating in the online growth story. They come from very diverse platforms and regions that include homemakers, career women even Instagram sellers.”
The unprecedented growth of e-commerce in India has given entrepreneurs a national platform to sell from and build their brand. Entrepreneurs are also being backed by the government’s Make in India initiative – an initiative Paytm strongly backs.
Paytm currently has over one lakh sellers and aims to have five lakh active sellers by the end of next year.
Paytm started by offering mobile recharge and utility bill payments, but is a full marketplace today
