Prabhu asks officials to hold another round of consultations on draft e-commerce policy

Commerce and Industry Minister Suresh Prabhu today asked his officials to undertake another round of stakeholder consultations for the draft e-commerce policy as concerns have been raised on some proposals.

The ministry, in a tweet, said that it "had received few concerns regarding the draft e-Commerce Policy following which the minister has directed officials to conduct another round of consultation with stakeholders to address them. The Minister will personally review the draft once it is prepared."
Saurabh Sharma, Director, Travel Unravel Holidays said, "This move will organise the entire travel space, which eventually will help everyone in the chain especially the end consumer. The single e-commerce regulator will ensure one umbrella that will drastically reduce the multiplicity of compliance and authorities to deal with, offering seamless business ecosystem."
