India supports e-commerce but not at cost of small retail businesses: Piyush Goyal

Mumbai, Aug 23: Two days after Piyush Goyal raised concerns over predatory pricing by big e-commerce companies, the Union Commerce Minister on Friday said India supports technology coming into the country but it should not come at the cost of small retail businesses.

“We support technology coming into the country. We believe every section has a right to promote their business. We welcome the e-commerce for the technology that it brings in for the convenience that it offers for bringing in more modern techniques,” Goyal told reporters in Mumbai today.
