Majority of the users were from Delhi (35 per cent), Mumbai (26 per cent) and Chennai (8 per cent).

While home grown major Flipkart leads overall conversations on social, with approx 217,000 posts, followed by Snapdeal (112,000) and Amazon (57,000), Amazon India had the highest overall traffic during its sale period, with peak being 14.7 million visitors on Day 1 (Oct 1, 2016), suggesting an earlier mover advantage, the research said.

“User conversations primarily revolved around four key themes: availability of products, promotions and offers, website experience, customer service and fulfillment,” the research noted.
