Amazon on Friday said it has witnessed a 250 per cent year-on-year growth in bringing new sellers on board as it looks to tap into the booming e-commerce market in India.

The company, which is making multi-billion dollar investments in India, has over 85,000 sellers on board. “We started with 100 sellers three years ago and now we have over 85,000 sellers, growing at 250 per cent year-on-year and adding over 90,000 products a day,” an Amazon India spokesperson said in a statement.

Amazon, which competes with the likes of Flipkart and Snapdeal, has cut its commissions by 25-30 per cent across categories.
