Abstract
The Indian marketplace is vibrant and evolving as the Indian consumer is amongst the youngest in the world and willing to experiment with new retail formats and transaction modes.

The study was conducted on a sample of 236 online buyers residing in the National Capital Region. Analysis revealed the existence of three distinctly different segments - online innovators, socially compliant buyers and the online laggard buyers.

However, trust, offers and discounts and attractive website design emerged as features important for all the three segments.
