6. India

Ranking basis: India has no uniformly audited GMV series — by FY2025 GMV/share estimates (ICICI Securities: share and users; CLSA: Meesho; company financials). Quick commerce is included in the Top 5: Zepto annualized GOV (~$4B) and Blinkit GOV (≈ Zomato food delivery) already exceed Nykaa GMV; Myntra is folded into Flipkart Group to avoid double-counting. Note: q-comm uses GOV (including non-merchandise categories), which is not fully comparable with marketplace GMV, and is treated as a separate high-growth category. India e-retail 2025 about $65B (WPP/MediaCom).

⚠️ Definition note: India market-size definitions vary widely ($60B estimate / $65B e-retail 2025 / $174–214B FY30 forecast); Flipkart and Amazon absolute GMV are derived estimates; q-comm GOV is not directly comparable with marketplace GMV; quick commerce drove 45% of 2025 festival-season purchases.
