CHAPTER-II
2.1 REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Review of related literature is one of the first four steps in research process. It
consists of summary of finding of research carried out in the past on the same directly and
indirectly related topic. This review provides insight to the researchers regarding what is
already known and what remains to be tested regarding the topic of research.
Baljeet Kaur, Sushila Madan (2013), found out the factors influencing the trust
and subsequently the willingness of the Indian consumer to buy online. Consumers are
bothered about the product quality, credit card frauds, availability of returns, product
delivery, security and privacy of their information. Therefor trust plays a significant role as it

Communication medium — the first since the invention of the telephone.' This

just for transaction processing but also for e-messaging and information retrieval and
dissemination, later known as e-business. His definition of the new mass communications
medium as 'participative' [interactive, many-to-many] was fundamentally different from the
traditional definitions of mass communication and mass media and a precursor to the social
networking on the Internet 25 years later. In March 1980 he went on to launch Redifon's
Office Revolution, which allowed consumers, customers, agents, distributors, suppliers and
service companies to be connected on-line to the corporate systems and allow business
transactions to be completed electronically in real-time.

t r u s t r e s u l t s i n c u s t o m e r loyalty. This study considered three factors which are
associated with online shopping; perceived security, loyalty and trust. Customer trust and
loyalty are important in online shopping and customers continue to shop at the
website which they have shopped before and consider it as trustworthy. He
concluded that as customer loyalty depends on the website security, taking
measures to improve the perceived security of the website in turn increase the
customer trust and customer loyalty.

customer loyalty in an online market. It provides insight into the customer’s experience of
service failure and helps to redress the failures. The importance of trust in developing a
psychological state with good or negative feeling about e-vendors cannot be overstated.

reviews (OCR) are more influenced by trust in online shopping malls than OEAs. When trust
in online shopping malls is high, consumer’s purchase intensions influenced by OCRs are
more favorable than those influenced by OEAs. This study is an initial consumer
endorsement research that uses OCRs to extent the trust transfer theory and extends the
interpersonal online trust perspective.

expected that the Online Retail Market will grow at a compound rate of 39% of what it is
today, during FY 2013 to FY 2016.Moreover due to urbanization the distance between places
increase sand so the travelling increases waste of time and fuel. So here in such situations

COMPANY PROFILE
MEESHO
Meesho is an Indian social e-commerce company situated in Bengaluru,
Karnataka, India. Vidit Aatrey and Sanjeev Barnwal launched it in December 2015.Meesho is
the abbreviated form for ‘My E-shop’. It is an online platform where users can purchase and
resell the products provided by the organization. It is now a part of WhatsApp business with
the catalogue feature. It is available for download from both the Google play store and Ios
app store, which allows anyone to establish a business with zero investment. This app is one
of the India’s most popular social commerce platforms, allowing anyone to launch an online
business. In June 2019, Meesho became the first Indian startup to obtain funding from
Facebook. It employs over 750 people. According to the reports Meesho is the most
downloaded app on Play store for July 2021. In April 2021, Meesho raised $300 million led
by Soft Bank Vision Fund giving it a valuation of $2.1Billion. Its tagline says, “Not just a
homemaker, a Meesho entrepreneur”. Meesho claims that their platform has connected them
with more than 13 million entrepreneurs. Women make up the vast majority of business
owners. Meesho is India's largest and most reliable platform for Resellers that sell things
online via WhatsApp and Facebook. Meesho is trusted by over 50,000 resellers and helps
them expand their online business by supplying hit items at low costs with excellent quality
and a simple return policy. All around India, they deliver to your doorstep. Payment Options
are available in both online and cash on delivery. Meesho has helped thousands of people
earn a living over the last two years by making it easier for them to establish and expand their
online reselling businesses. Meesho has strict quality controls in place to ensure that only
high-quality vendors are on boarded. They have a simple return and exchange policy in case
the product quality isn't up to par. In addition, the team actively solicits user input on product
quality and after-sales service. On the Product Details page, you can also see this feedback in
21
the form of Ratings & Reviews. Meesho's quality control method is improved as a result of
this feedback, and low-quality vendors are eliminated. On the supply side, the corporation is
also experimenting with new categories. For example, in the case of travel packages, resellers
are attempting to sell travel packages to end users. Currently, the majority of them are
women's and children's clothing, but Meesho is experimenting with travel, FMCG, and
beauty, among other things. So far, Amazon Web Services (AWS) has met the company's
cloud server needs, and the company's expansion into new categories likewise based on this
infrastructure. Meesho resale concept is similar to that of a personal shopper. Customers
purchase products straight from e-commerce sites such as Flipkart or Amazon. A reseller
model, on the other hand, adds a third party between the platform and the consumer. A
product will be shared with the reseller's network via WhatsApp or Instagram. If a customer
wishes to place an order, they may do so after adding their margin, and Meesho will deliver
the product directly to the customer. The supplier saves money on marketing and shipping,
the reseller gains money from their markup on each product, and Meesho receives a
commission from the provider. Resellers aren't Meesho's sole competitive advantage over
Amazon and Flipkart. Another secret sauce of Meesho is the creation of an easy-to-use
platform, similar to WhatsApp. Their goal was to create something as simple as WhatsApp.
In fact, the first few versions of the app were designed to seem extremely similar to
WhatsApp's User experience in order to familiarize users with the service when they went
online. As transactions increased, Meesho's income nearly tripled to 307 crores in the fiscal
year ended March 2020. However, losses increased threefold to 315.4 crore, owing to higher
logistics and fulfilment expenses. The bottom line will seem healthier when economies
of scale kick in. The success of Meesho, as well as the markets potential, has attracted some
notable investors. Soft Bank, for example, is investing in Meesho for the third time in India's
e-commerce market, following Snapdeal and Flipkart. Vidit and Sanjeev have developed a
sophisticated understanding of the Indian market and have built a platform to service the next
500 million internet shoppers. They are connecting more than 50 million SMEs to the
internet while also supporting women businesses. Meesho's success can be attributed to
Facebook India. Meesho has been effective in providing a platform for small firms and
entrepreneurs to increase sales outside of urban areas. Fashion, beauty, furnishings, and home
appliances are among Meesho's unbranded and long-tail sectors. As a result, a shift into
grocery seemed inevitable, despite the fact that the circumstances were far from perfect
