Just like other Amazon.in product sections, the new categories feature detailed product descriptions, options to shortlist products by features, customer reviews from Amazon.com, and personalised recommendations for products.

Amazon will offer these products from retailers like Croma, Vijay sales,  Mahindra Retail, Vividha, Toygully, Kidzoba, Redlily, Mom & Me (Mahindra Retail), Ofororange and Toyworld among others, using Fulfillment by Amazon, offering customers cash on delivery, free returns pickup, an delivery tracking to the doorstep.

Amazon.in now boasts of a large selection of products across eleven categories including over 9 million books, more than 70,000 products from hundreds of brands, and over 1.7 million ebooks, from 500 plus retailers, the company informed.

Commenting on the launch, Amit Agarwal, Vice President and Country Manager, Amazon India, said, "We are excited to launch four new stores today and expand selection on Amazon.in in time for the festive season. We look forward to delighting customers with broad selection, low prices, great convenience, and reliably delivery."
