E-pharmacy (BPC) market is majorly driven by changing lifestyles, increasing
number of youth and working population, along with increasing awareness about
personal care and beauty products is contributing to high demand for personal care
products. Furthermore, this is leading to high sales of these products through
e-pharmacy channels and others. Authenticity and comparative low prices attract
consumers towards online pharmacy channels over other e-commerce websites.
E-pharmacy can be used to order products online, which aids to reduce cash
transactions and promotes cashless economy. The government of India is taking
efforts to promote digital payment systems through the launch of ‘Digital India
Initiative’ in July 2015. This initiative aims to offer internet access and mobile phone
coverage across India, which in turn is expected to help several people to receive
online access and utilize digital payment technique.
Moreover, in order to encourage poor and illiterate people in rural areas to make
digital payments, the government of India launched ‘Aadhaar Pay’ in March 2019,
which ensures financial transactions online. It is expected to help people in rural
areas to order personal care products at a single click, where pharmacy stores are
not available nearby. Therefore, increasing government initiatives to promote
cashless economy is expected to boost growth of the market over the forecast
period.
