Abstract: This paper will discuss the role of artificial intelligence in transforming India’s electronic commerce business by increasing consumer interaction, reforming operations, and enhancing the individual shopping experience. Drawing on insights from secondary sources, the research aims to explore the impact of artificial intelligence on online retailing and examine the challenges to adoption, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Illustrative examples include Amazon’s AI-powered product recommendations, Flipkart’s use of chatbots and visual search tools, Myntra’s augmented reality virtual try-on features, and AJIO, which leverages AI for visual search and personalised styling suggestions. AI also improves logistics management and enables predictive analytics for better decision making. Despite these benefits, challenges such as data privacy concerns, a lack of skilled professionals, and high technology costs remain significant. The paper proposes solutions, including leveraging open-source AI resources, collaborating with startups, securing government support, and developing solutions tailored to regional needs. AI adoption can thus foster inclusive growth and strengthen India’s e-commerce sector.
