往年的节日大促中，印度电商狂打“价格战”，商品价格甚至低至1卢布。今年，资本寒冬和政策变动让印度电商的日子不太好过，玩好十月开始的大促季显得困难重重。作者 | 路遥印度的销售旺季一般从10月拉开帷幕，到排灯节（每年10月或11月中）左右达到最高峰。往年，印度电商都会用巨额折扣吸引消费者，但今年三月印度出台的电商新政禁止电商打折促销，扰乱市场价格。 咨询公司Greyhound Research的首席研究员 Sanchit Vir Gogia表示：“今年各大电商都在改进技术，备战节日促销。希望他们今年别再犯同一个错误了。” 今年，Flipkart和Snapdeal的官网大促从10月2日开始到10月6日结束，拉长的促销日或许能让他们控制好网站流量。 重重束缚在身，今年印度电商该如何在节日促销旺季突出重围？Quartz建议，印度电商不妨尝试将高利润和低利润的商品混搭销售。Gogia认为：“消费者可能会见到不少品牌类混搭。电商平台会将服务绑定产品，以确保获得利润。” Source: Weixinduba.comWeixinduba.com | chuansong.me
