Jack Ma, head of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba.
Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba is in talks with Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Retail to form a joint venture with an investment of $5 billion.
The Chinese behemoth has offered to acquire a large stake in Reliance Retail to take on India's largest e-retail giant Flipkart and Jeff Bezos-owned Amazon.
The ongoing talks indicate that India’s e-retail space is likely to continue growing at a fast pace and the competition in the e-retail space is likely to increase.
If a deal is signed, it will be Alibaba’s largest investment in an Indian company. Reliance Retail is the largest retailer in India in terms of revenue.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
