Flipkart on Wednesday said it would create over 20 lakh jobs through its marketplace and ancillary services in 2015.
The company in its announcement also said that 60 per cent of the job created will be in the logistics and warehousing sector.
The leading e-tailer also said in 2015, 50-60 per cent of the employment will be created in Tier II and Tier III cities.
The rapid development of the domestic e-commerce ecosystem will contribute towards the generation of employment across sectors.
According to Flipkart, sellers will also play a vital role in creation of jobs across India — sellers of home products, apparels, mobile accessories and small appliances will generate the maximum employment.
Last year, over half a million jobs were created in the e-commerce space alone, Flipkart said in a release.
