After its initial announcement back in November 2021, the Delhi government is finally planning to launch its online shopping portal “Dilli Bazaar” this December. The online portal is meant for people to access the famous Delhi markets right from their homes. Here are the details.

According to PTI, Dilli Bazaar will feature over 10,000 vendors from across the state. For the uninitiated, Dilli Bazaar is the Delhi government’s ambitious effort to give its traders access to a global market. After starting off with 10,000 vendors, the government aims to onboard over one lakh Delhi shops to the portal. That’s planned to happen within a period of six months.

While enrolling the merchants, the government says that the market association will verify their credentials. Furthermore, there will be an agency to oversee the operations of the e-portal. The government also claims that products listed on the portal will be more affordable than other e-commerce portals. Each merchant will also get a personalized storefront.
