Abstract

Online shopping has more or less made heavy inroads in today's retail trade across the world. Companies like Amazon are out to render brick and mortar establishments obsolete. Even after its' strong presence in the country, Indian sites like Flipkart, Myntra, Ajio, and Snapdeal, among others, are also doing extremely well. A deeper study has been undertaken by the authors to study the real driving variables in online shopping and their relationship to demographic and other variables. The following variables have been taken for Model building. The importance is given to website features and their relationship to respondents' other internet activities like engaging with their Facebook society, Gaming on the net, using the net for e-learning, etc is a necessary dimension that has been studied in this paper. Also, the relationship to the demographic variables of the respondents is equally important for designing an enticing website for digital marketing.
