We have today Buyers/Sellers with KYC done on our excess inventory platform. We started the commercial transactions in the August-end and in the very first month and we have had our first milestone of Rs 1 million”.
“Over a period of the last four months we have created enough awareness amongst IT, Electronics, Telecom, Mobility, Home automation segments to reach to the sellers/dealers/retailers community and have been building an eco-system for the excess inventory marketplace. We now broadcast excess inventory availability to over 15000 B2B buyers/sellers across India, this enables the buyer & seller ecosystem to have access to the overall excess inventory. This opportunity is estimated to be worth almost US$ 10 billion a year in India.
