Investors are not showing interest in investing money.

Future Road Map• They aim at 10 times growth, and eyes at $ 1Billion sales by 2015.

•They will look at bigger investments in their supply chain and technology.

• Investment will be made in large warehouses and increased automation of their process, so that the product is not delayed.

• They intend to enter in to various new categories and expand their current categories as well.

• Everything except for groceries and automobiles will be available on Flipkart in future.

• To go further in the value chain, Flipkart is looking at associations with a larger number of suppliers and partners, both nationally and internationally.

• Flipkart, the first billion dollar Internet company from India(going by 2015 estimates )is by far the leading online store in the nation.

• Now that Amazon has entered India in early 2012, this news becomes even more significant, considering that Amazon has previously, and unsuccessfully, tried acquiring the company, with Flipkart demanding a very high buyout price.

• With online retail industry in India pegged to reach $1.5 billion (2015), sources suggest that e-commerce is just hotting up in India and we may soon seen many more Internet companies achieving similar success
