    online shopping has become the buzz word across the globe in the past one decade, which has opened several options for the customers and manufacturers alike to do business in a hassle-free and more transparent manner.
    India is one of the fastest growing economies and the vogue of online shopping has made an impressive foray in the commercial arena. Gone are the days when people used to visit shops and stores, scanning each and every product, bargaining with the sellers.
    With internet bringing a change in the dynamics of business, the people are just a click away from picking up their favourite products. Further, options like cash on delivery and guaranteed replacement has made the process of online shopping pretty lucrative.
    The survey was conducted among four age groups mainly below 15 years, 15-25 years, 26-34 years and above 36 years. Those between 26-34 years old, go for online shopping the most and stand at a decent 43 percent among the rest. The next in the tally is led by those between 15-25 years old, followed by the age bracket of above 36 years and those below 15 years finished below in the tally with a meager four percent.
    Online shopping is an easier option and saves a lot of time and energy as well. It is perhaps one of the major factors, which has given a boost to the trend of online shopping.
