Abstract
How does data shape the competitive landscape of a sector in the digital economy? This question is of great importance today, with jurisdictions worldwide debating regulations on the digital economy. This paper analyses growth and competition in the digital brokerage sector in India to establish how firms in this sector compete. Differences in business models show that firms offer differentiated products, have different approaches to managing costs through differing backend technologies, and innovatively use public data. A framework based on existing literature is developed to understand data-driven competitive advantage, and some lessons for data regulation are drawn from the sectoral analysis.
