Experts say that the key to success will be to develop user-friendly apps and ensure that the shopping experience is not lost across different devices.

URBAN LADDER - ONLINE FURNITURE RETAILER

HOUSING.COM - ONLINE RENTALS, RESALE, LAND AND NEW PROJECTS

UNIQUE APP FEATURE: The app is completely gesture-based. Once a user starts browsing, a map adjusts to the location of the property automatically.

LIMEROAD - SERVICES PROVIDED: ONLINE WOMEN FASHION RETAILER

UNIQUE APP FEATURE: The retailer's app posts new styles and product updates from customers and vendors every 30 seconds, having something fresh to see every time a user logs in. Products and looks created by users are streamed along with new products and trends.

VOONIK - ONLINE PERSONAL STYLIST PLATFORM

UNIQUE APP FEATURE: The app's swipe-to-like interface allows the user swipe to the right if they find some clothing/accessory attractive and to the left if you are not interested. Once swiped right, it will keep her posted on the discounts and availability for that item over time.

TAXIFORSURE - ONLINE TAXI AGGREGATOR

Passengers can also share location directly from the app via email, SMS, WhatsApp and let their friends and family track their journey.
