The Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) is a government-backed initiative in India that aims to create a unified open platform for all kinds of e-commerce transactions. It is designed to be a more open and transparent alternative to the current e-commerce landscape, which is dominated by a few large players.
#ONDC employs cutting-edge digital infrastructure, seeking to democratise digital commerce in India and make it more accessible and inclusive. More than 29,000 sellers are live on the network, and alpha tests are currently running in 236 cities.
ONDC has the potential to address some of the key concerns that users have with the current e-commerce landscape. For example, it could help to reduce prices by increasing competition. It could also make easier for small businesses to participate in e-commerce, which could lead to a wider range of products and services being available to consumers.

Democratising ecommerce is a process of opening up the world of online retail to everyone, regardless of their socio-economic status or location. The PIPOnet platform is a revolutionary tool that makes this possible by creating a level playing field where small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can compete with established retailers.
PIPO stands for "Pay in Person Only," which means that customers can place orders online but then pay in cash at a physical location. This feature is particularly useful in countries where online payments are not yet widely accepted or where people prefer to pay in cash.

India's unemployment rate has risen to a three-month high of 7.8% in March amid concerns a global slowdown will hurt Asia’s third-largest economy. Whereas, the private sector plays a crucial role in job creation and economic growth, and their efforts to address the unemployment problem are important.
Collaboration between the private sector and the government is crucial in addressing the unemployment problem. This could include public-private partnerships aimed at promoting employment-intensive industries and creating an enabling environment for businesses to grow and create jobs.
Unemployment is a serious concern, as it not only affects individuals and families but also has wider economic and social implications. The uptick follows early signs of cooling demand in the $3.2 trillion economy, where policy makers have been battling runaway inflation like their peers in the rest of the world.
"India's labour markets deteriorated in March 2023. The unemployment rate increased from 7.5% in February to 7.8% in March. The effect of this is compounded by the simultaneous fall in the labour force participation rate, which fell from 39.9% to 39.8% , as per the report from the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy.
This led to a fall in the employment rate from 36.9% in February to 36.7% in March, this has led to the employment fell from 409.9 million to 407.6 million.

The primary factor driving the growth of the market in the region is the rising adoption of #digitalpayments supported by government initiatives and strong growth in E-commerce, among others.
As per #GlobalData, card payments value in India registered a strong growth of 26.7% in 2022, supported by improving economic conditions. This trend is expected to continue in 2023 and India’s card payments market is set to grow at a CAGR of 18.7% between 2022 and 2026 to reach Rs 43.3 trillion ($581.1 billion) in 2026.
Experts say that, India, which is primarily a cash-driven economy, made robust progress in the adoption and usage of card payments supported by consumers’ increasing preference for electronic payments, improvement in payment infrastructure, and constant efforts by financial authorities to increase financial inclusion and boost cashless payments.”
The introduction of low-cost banking services under Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana program, the appointment of banking correspondents to serve remote population, the launch of payments banks, and the reduction of merchant fees on card-based payments are some of the initiatives from government and the central bank that led to rise in card payments in the past few years.
The post-pandemic recovery in card payments is mainly driven by credit and charge cards, with this card category growing by 39.2% in 2022, as consumer spending increased on travel, accommodation, restaurants, and transportation. Regular benefits such as loyalty programs, discounts, and availability of instalment facilities are also aiding to rise in credit and charge card usage.
The card payments market, however, is witnessing some hiccups due to the rising inflation rate as the country’s central bank is on an interest rate hike path to control inflation. The repo rate was increased in phases to 6.50% in February 2023 from 4.40% in May 2022, making credit costlier for consumers.

When we see the data points and an insight into the e-retail landscape, the emerging trends speaks how it is shaping the market. India’s e-retail market rose to approximately $40 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $50 billion in 2022. Online shopping is a growing trend in India, and the number of sellers and buyers is increasing daily by whopping percentages. Hence, India is the sweet spot.
Much of the growth for the Indian e-commerce sector has been triggered by an increase in internet and smartphone penetration. India currently has the world’s second-largest telecom market, one with the cheapest mobile data costs. Driven by the Government of India’s initiatives to digitise essential services, both governmental and otherwise, India has seen a tremendous rise in online shopping, with around 600 Million people opting for e-commerce platforms. This number is only expected to grow in the coming months. India has robust fundamentals supporting a continued boom in e-retail. India’s substantial online consumer base and retail market (third largest globally) already make it an incredibly attractive e-retail market.
Now it is the perfect time to bring the E-Commerce vision to life online. With the growing demand for digital shopping, launching your platform now will no doubt reap great rewards in terms of customer satisfaction and sales growth.
India’s e-retail market is estimated to increase to $150–$170 billion by 2027. This implies 25%–30% annual growth and doubling of market penetration to 9%–10% over the next five years.
The report highlights that, An estimated 40 million-50 million online shoppers were added in 2021 alone; of these, over 60% were from Tier III cities and beyond. Going forward, a growing segment of online shoppers will also come from digital-native individuals under 25 years of age.

Last year, in September, #SOVA appeared on the dark web or underground markets with capabilities to harvest usernames and passwords through keylogging, stealing cookies and placing false overlays on several apps installed on mobile. Ransomware attacks on mobiles would be catastrophic for every user.
Recent days have seen Indian mobile banking app users being hit by malware like Oscorp, Brata, SOVA, etc. that defraud victims by remote access controls, collecting keystrokes, or stealing cookies from devices. Many of these Malwares also seize the multi-factor authentication tokens.
Furthermore, this malware can capture screenshots, and record videos from the device’s camera without the permission of the users. One of the Android Trojans recently highlighted is SOVA Malware which has harmful capabilities like keylogging, overlay attacks, Screenshots Capturing & abuse of accessibility permissions. Mostly, this is sideloaded from phishing links sent to users on E-Mail/SMS/WhatsApp.
India’s computer emergency response team (CERT-In) also issued a warning about SOVA Android Trojan. SOVA was earlier focusing on countries like the US, Russia and Spain; but, in July 2022, it added several other countries, including India, to its list of targets.
The v4 version of this malware hides itself within fake Android applications that show up with the logo of a few famous legitimate apps like Chrome, Amazon, and the non-fungible token (NFT) platform to deceive users into installing them.
The banking industry is undergoing massive digital disruption with mobile apps and e-payments becoming the norm. India had 1.2 billion mobile subscribers in 2021, of which around 750 million were smartphone users. India is going to have 1 billion smartphone users by 2026, says a Deloitte report. For most people, mobile is becoming the preferred option, whether it is food ordering, ticketing, entertainment, payments, or funds transfer.

OTT, online gaming, increased smartphone usage, e-commerce, online schooling by EdTech platforms, location-agnostic work, along with advanced technologies including machine learning, 5G, blockchain, and artificial intelligence, has led to a multi-fold jump in data transmission and need for high spec servers.
According to a latest report, in H1 2022, the DC stock in India exceeded 9 million sq. ft. with a 600+ MW capacity in India. It is expected that the DC capacity will almost double by 2024, with more than 400 MW currently under construction across cities in India. Mumbai is expected to lead the supply addition, followed by Bangalore, Chennai, and Delhi-NCR.
Mumbai led in terms of pan-India DC stock, accounting for a share of about 48%, followed by Bangalore at about 18%, along with Chennai (9%), which is now gradually becoming one of the fastest growing DC markets in India.
Together, these three cities accounted for nearly 75% of India’s DC footprint. In addition, Delhi-NCR, Pune, Hyderabad, and Kolkata accounted for the remaining 25% of the DC market in India.
The report further states that hyperscale DCs majorly dominated investments during 2018-2021 with a share of about 77% – a similar trend was recorded in H1 2022. Moreover, investments in hyperscale DCs were majorly spread across the top states, with West Bengal leading with a share of 22%, followed by Uttar Pradesh (19%), Telangana (16%), and Tamil Nadu (8%).
On the other hand, more than half of investments announced in colocation DCs were across India, while the remaining half was split between the key states of Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, and Telangana.
Experts from CBRE, said, “With businesses across sectors expanding their digital infrastructure, DCs are becoming increasingly important as a larger alternate real estate class. Following policy refinement on the government's part, the DC segment in India is expected to

The subscription video on demand (SVOD) service revenue in India is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 15.5% from $1.3 billion in 2021 to $2.7 billion in 2026, driven by solid growth in SVOD subscriptions and an increase in unique SVOD household penetration, as per GlobalData.
India Subscription Video on Demand Forecast (Q4-2021)’ reveals that SVOD subscriptions in the country will increase at a CAGR of 16.2% during 2021-2026, driven by the increasing availability of affordable high-speed mobile internet, and a steady rise in household penetration of fixed broadband services, particularly high-speed fiber-to-the-home/building services, which enable the consumption of high-bandwidth OTT video content.
Moreover, the upcoming roll out of 5G networks will further aid in the growth of SVOD streaming services by facilitating a seamless streaming experience for consumers. The Indian SVOD market is on an accelerated growth path thanks to the availability of high-speed broadband services, growing smartphone penetration, and widespread popularity of OTT content among the younger population.
At the same time, the Global SVOD operators such as Disney+ Hotstar, Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, which have gained immense popularity in India, have been adopting innovative pricing plans with multi-device streaming options to expand their user base, and are investing heavily in developing premium original video content, especially in regional languages.
The result shows the Disney+ Hotstar platform is expected to hold the largest share of India’s #SVODservices market, in terms of subscriptions, through the 2021-2026 period. The growth can be attributed to the company’s wide, distinct pool of multilingual local and original content library, competitive pricing, and exclusive coverage rights to the Indian Premier League, one of the biggest sporting events in the country.

The Centre launched Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) in Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, Bhopal, Shillong and Coimbatore in a pilot phase in the month of April.
ONDC is a freely accessible government-backed platform that aims to democratise e-commerce by moving it from a platform-centric model to an open network for buying and selling of goods and services. ONDC is planned to be active in 75 locations by August, months after running pilots in seven cities.
The #digitaleconomy has been propelled by a pandemic, which has contributed to the Indian e-commerce sector's current hypergrowth. In order to avoid being infected during the pandemic, people were advised to conduct online transactions. Digital use increased along with the rise of online-only purchasing.
It is an initiative of the government to promote an open platform for all aspects of the exchange of goods and services through electronic networks. ONDC to become the next Unified Payments Interface (UPI), one of India's most successful digital products. Through this platform, consumers can potentially discover any seller, product or service by using any ONDC-compatible application or platform, thus increasing freedom of choice for consumers.
The open network concept extends beyond the retail sector, to any digital commerce domains including wholesale, mobility, food delivery, logistics, travel, urban services, etc. It is an opportunity for the startup entrepreneurs to take the UPI, a system that powers multiple bank accounts into a single mobile application, to the world in a "very big way".
With the usage of ONDC platform, consumers' freedom of choice will increase as a result of the platform's potential for enabling them to find any seller or service by utilising any ONDC-compatible platform or application. ONDC can support business owners engaged in e-commerce, B2B transactions, or direct consumer contact.

Customer data platforms (CDPs) help to deliver personalized experiences across brand touch points. A new study by Juniper Research has found that customer data platform providers will generate $6 billion globally by 2027, rising from $1.7 billion in 2022; representing a growth of 250%. The introduction of AI-based services will be key to unifying multiple data sources on a single platform; reducing siloed data and centralising enterprise access to customer data. Customer data platforms are used to gain insight into customer preferences through collecting and extrapolating data on transactions, browsing history and other online information. Customer expectations continue to rise as purchasing journeys become increasingly digital and industry leaders raise the bar for compelling customer experiences. E-commerce already accounts for 42% of all B2B purchases today, and it is predicted to add another 15% to its growth in terms of sales by 2023. To compete, companies must create more dynamic, personalized experiences throughout the customer lifecycle by quickly converting user data into insights. Customer data management, analytics, and audience creation solutions help organizations address business priorities by creating superior customer experiences.
In the age of the customer, businesses focus everything they do on what their customers value most, including creating a compelling and consistent customer experience. The most valuable capabilities of current toolsets — for customer data management, analytics, and audience creation strategies — are creating a single view of the customer and improving data management. The research says there are urges for the customer data platforms to increase the breadth of integrations with third‑party vendors, such as relationship management platforms, for greater access to user data. It highlighted the ability of customer data platforms to merge different data sources using AI as critical to unlocking more granular user insig

India and the United Kingdom have committed to a joint program of cooperation to increase cybersecurity. In May 2021, both the leaders had agreed to build on the Enhanced Cyber Security Partnership, which was announced by the two countries with a focus on cyber governance, deterrence, resilience and capacity building. Prime Minister Modi and UK counterpart PM Boris Jhonson reiterated a shared commitment to a partnership for vision 2030 for open, accessible and peaceful cyberspace that will bring a more secure Indo-Pacific on 22 April 2022. India and the U.K. are concerned by the increased willingness of states and their proxies to undertake malicious cyber activities contrary to identified norms of responsible state behaviour in cyberspace. India and the U.K. are working in close cooperation under the International Counter Ransomware Initiative. They will also work together to counter cybercrime by preventing, deterring, mitigating, investigating and prosecuting these crimes, ensuring speedy justice for the victims of cybercrime and taking into account the need for appropriate safeguards including data protection. Both countries have pledged to work in partnership to increase their mutual cyber resilience, taking a holistic and whole-of-society approach. They will complete joint work to identify shared vulnerabilities, and promote effective public-private partnerships, with a view to ensuring decisions on systems design and deployment take into account public safety protections and increasing the awareness and ability of the public and infrastructure owners, to increase resilience against malicious cyber activity.
With the increasing complexities of Cyberspace, governments cannot meet the challenges of the digital age alone. Hence, it has been recognised by the state that the private sector can play an important role as developers and implementers of new technologies, and in relation to data management. India and the UK will work in collaboration with indus

We have been seeing the global shortage of semiconductors, the semiconductor industry found itself in an unaccustomed spotlight. Suddenly everyone was talking about the tiny chips that enable many different car functions, from interior lighting to seat control to blind-spot detection. When some high-tech and consumer-electronics companies began to experience chip shortages or voiced concerns about supply chains, the attention intensified. It’s now clear to all that we are living in a semiconductor world. A report says, there is a huge demand-supply gap, the global smartphone applications processor market grew 23% to $30.8 billion in 2021. But the current chip shortage is unlikely to be resolved in the near future, partly because of the complexities of the semiconductor production process. Typical lead times can exceed four months for products that are already well established in a manufacturing line. Increasing capacity by moving a product to another manufacturing site usually adds another six months (even in existing plants). Switching to a different manufacturer typically adds another year or more because the chip’s design requires alterations to match the specific manufacturing processes of the new partner. And some chips can contain manufacturer-specific intellectual property that may require alterations or licensing.
Sales are jumping as computer chips spread to every part of consumers’ lives, becoming essential components of products from cars to smart devices to clothing. Surging demand during the pandemic also resulted in a shortage. There has been rapid growth of the technology sector, and increased cloud usage, as well as ongoing consolidation in many sub-segments. One consequence is that the semiconductor industry’s profitability has improved significantly relative to other industries, and this trend is expected to continue. When we saw the statistics, Qualcomm tops the global smartphone apps chip market with double-digit growth. Qualcomm maintai

The pandemic accelerated far-reaching global mega trends from labor shortages and supply chain uncertainty, to the individualized consumer and growing pressure to operate sustainably and resiliently – leading new businesses to look to robotic automation. As technology opens new opportunities for meeting customer demands, new trends will continue to emerge that will further drive demand in areas where robots have traditionally not been used. With demand for robots growing as companies in multiple sectors look for new ways to enhance their productivity and competitiveness post-pandemic and acceleration continues for robots in new sectors like logistics and retail, and speeds up for EV production. With many countries restricting and phasing out the production of combustion engine vehicles over the next decade, the race towards electric cars has accelerated. Manufacturers and their supply chains must tackle the complexity of diversifying into EVs alongside combustion-engine vehicles, to meet varying regulatory frameworks governing EV adoption across the globe. The speed and added flexibility needed will see new and established manufacturers move away from traditional linear manufacturing, towards modular, flexible production.
Secondly, the E-commerce boom will accelerate, Consumer behavior and expectations are driving companies to find new ways to satisfy demand, developing new channels through omnichannel retailing and adapting their production lines and distribution processes to enable personalization of both products and delivery. Fulfilling these requirements has seen thousands of robots installed worldwide where they were not used just five years ago, and this rapid rate of automation will continue in 2022 driven by a combination of consumer trends and a growing shortage of labor. Going forward, more robots will appear in more places – and workers will need new skills. Smaller, more affordable, and easy-to-use robots, are helping to remove many of the bar

Journalists and news organizations can do yeomen service to the world by opening our eyes to the wheeling dealing, which happens in the name of statecraft, diplomacy and internal security. They also give us a peep into the world’s underbelly, which is greasy and is kept intact in the name of security, territorial integrity, sovereignty and the ultimate power of the nation states not to divulge anything. All we need to understand is how tech is used for things it is not meant for and not made public. A recent news from the apex court of the country said, there is a strong indicator state used Pegasus for spying, pointing to the involvement of "the state, its intelligence and law enforcement agencies" in using Pegasus for unauthorised surveillance, at least two cybersecurity experts told the Supreme Court-appointed committee. A researcher reportedly analysed iPhones of seven people, of which two were found to be infected with Pegasus, Cyber experts told the Supreme Court panel. Pegasus can be very safely be termed as the most potent weapon, since the atom bomb. A year-long investigation including inputs from government officials, leaders of intelligence and law enforcement agencies, cyber weapon experts and lots others has clearly proven how Israel’s ability to approve or deny access to NSO’s cyberweapons has been entangled with its diplomacy. In a shocking news, Chief Executive Officer of NSO Group, Shalev Hulio, in an interview to Israeli Channel 12 said, strongly defended the company's operations, though he also conceded that some "mistakes" may have happened over the years. Our technology has over the years helped the interests and national security of the United States quite a bit," he claimed.
Pegasus used spear phishing to enter phones, utilising a message designed to entice the target to click on a malicious link. However, it evolved into “zero-click” attacks with the phones being infected without any action from the tar

There is a prime focus on digital users as they emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic into a post pandemic “next normal.” The mainstreaming of IoT, AI and big data analytics, is providing utilities with the firepower of working and transforming into modern enterprises. The unprecedented adoption of e-utilities has already charged up the digital space. Cryptocurrencies, unicorns, decacorns, IPOs, super apps, data breaches have become a part of drawing room conversations in 2021 — a year when India’s digital economy boomed. Several important pending Bills and policies across data protection, cryptocurrencies, e-commerce and social media intermediaries were fast tracked. A lot of this was driven by an unprecedented digital adoption of payments, e-commerce, social media, healthcare, education, remote working and every other possible utility. In 2022, the digital economy will continue its upward journey, propelled by the listing frenzy of internet start-ups towards the end of 2021. The listings have boosted investor confidence in the internet economy space. Developing countries such as Brazil, India, and Mexico have seen higher growth in digital adoption than developed ones have, during the past six months, which may reflect a “catching up” effect, since developed countries were further ahead in their pace of digitization, and in the percentage of adults with internet access. It follows that developed countries may see a deceleration in digital adoption sooner than developing countries will.
In India the digital economy gained speed, regulations arrived and we are likely to see more rules governing the space. But an area of concern are overlaps, and experts feel these need to be streamlined. The draft bill focussing on “personal” data protection now includes social media intermediaries, which could also fall under the new IT Rules. An expert from IndiaTech.Org says, “Last three years of our efforts with SEBI and the government finally took shape in 2021 with the li

India is contributing significantly to the next generation of telecom services with companies collaborating to broaden solutions. Private networks are expected to see a huge demand from enterprises in the near future across industries such as healthcare, education, fintech, e-commerce and entertainment. Though the spectrum auction is expected to happen in the second half of this year, the buzz around 5G has gained momentum over the last few months. The Fifth Generation or 5G telecom services are set to be rolled out in selected cities in India in 2022. The cities which are set to get the 5G telecom services in 2022 include Gurugram, Bangalore, Kolkata, Mumbai, Chandigarh, Delhi, Jamnagar, Ahmadabad, Chennai, Hyderabad, Lucknow, Pune, and Gandhinagar. Leading telecom service providers Bharti Airtel, Reliance Jio and Vodafone Idea, have established 5G trials sites in these cities. These Metros and big cities would be the first places for the launch of 5G services in the country. While 5G services will allow telecom players to generate additional revenue streams especially from the enterprise and digital services segment, it is widely expected to come at a huge cost. The biggest chunk of the additional costs will be the price of airwaves companies will have to pay in an auction.
Telecom has played a significant role in bringing a change in consumer usage pattern. Data availability has pushed more and more digital services to the end user. To prepare for 5G well in advance, the Department of Telecommunications is considering using 'street furniture' to densely deploy 5G telecom infrastructure to overcome right-of-way challenges following a proposal from a state electricity board. The new committee under the department is looking at the viability and the quantum of state-owned infrastructure for making it available for 5G small cells deployment. Apart from the leading telecom operators and smartphone manufacturers, the government is also involved activ
