“IndiaMART had incurred significant operating losses in the past and it may not be able to improve its financial position or generate sufficient revenue to achieve positive net worth. Also, competition from new and existing companies may reduce demand for services or cause to lose visitor traffic, market share or paying subscription suppliers," the brokerage added.

Also, it will invest in mobile platforms and capabilities to leverage the growing smartphone penetration in India.
Talking about its competition in the market, the brokerage said, “TradeIndia.com and Alibaba India are some of the key competitors for IndiaMART. Nonetheless, internet penetration and mobile usage is expected to grow rapidly, driven by greater smartphone penetration and relatively affordable mobile data cost.”
The company is planning to increase the number of free and paying subscription suppliers, upgrade existing technology, bring onboard large and medium enterprises, and attract large suppliers and leading brands, added the report.
