India permits 100% FDI in e-commerce inventory models for exports
DPIIT has opened export-only inventory-led e-commerce to foreign investment, allowing platforms such as Amazon and Flipkart to manage India-made goods for overseas sales. The move could simplify export compliance for MSMEs and strengthen marketplace-led cross-border retail.
DPIIT has allowed FDI-backed e-commerce inventory models exclusively for exports of India-made goods, easing compliance for MSME sellers and potentially enabling platforms such as Amazon and Flipkart to directly manage export inventory.
Why this matters
DPIIT’s latest export policy follows its recent FDI-backed inventory e-commerce signal for Made-in-India exports and its extension of footwear QCO stock deadlines while easing R&D import norms.
Retail-company signals are accelerating, up 1,050,800% QoQ.
