I N T R O D U C T I O N :
Consumer behaviouris the study of when, why, how, and where
people do or do not buy aproduct.It blends elements frompsychology,sociology,socialanthropologyandeconomics.Itattempts to understand the buyer decision making process, bothindividually and in groups. It studies characteristics of individualconsumers such asdemographicsand behavioral variables in anattempt to understand people's wants. It also tries to assessinfluences on theconsumerfrom groups such as family, friends,reference groups, and society in general.
As a consumer we are all unique and this uniqueness is reflected in theconsumption pattern and process of purchase. The study ofconsumer behavior provides us with reasons why consumersdiffer from one another in buying using products and services. Wereceive stimuli from the environment and the specifics of the marketing
strategies of different products and services, and responds to thesestimuli in terms of either buying or not buying product. Inbetween the stage of receiving the stimuli and responding to it,the consumer goes through the process of making his decision.

ONLINE SHOPPING IN INDIA:
Though a development in the internet has been happening in
India, it took quite some time for e-commerce to have a stable
base in the country.Online shopping in India is gradually
increasing its pace. It could be that the slow internet penetration
is a hindrance, that online shopping is restricted only to huge
metro cities. However, today with more and more people being
cyber savvy, online shopping is gaining prominence amongst
Indians.Owing to certain technological challenges, you will find
only a small section of merchants involved in online purchases.
The main obstacles are low computer penetration in
India,amount of debit or credit card holders being few and certain
unfavorable tax regulations. Not many online shopping websites
in India offer the option of cash on delivery. Another important
trend is that, not all customers are willing to disclose their
financial statements and data online.These have been major
factors hampering the development and expansion of online
business.On the other hand, if analyzed from a wider perspective
online shopping holds a huge potential in India. Numerous
Ecommerce analysts and researchers are of opinion, that it has
the potential to reach about $100 billion or more in the
forthcoming years.
There are several enterprises, of both small as well as large scale,
that are willing to experiment with idea of B2C and B2B websiteson the internet in a huge way.Another factor that has been
holding people back from indulging in online shopping in India is
the inhibited mindset. People unwontedly give into ambiguous
beliefs of the products sold online not being of and faulty billing
systems.

Online shopping portals today practice stringent and
systematized billing processes and the products offered are of the
same quality kind to that of a mall. Sometimes, online shopping
websites offer attractive discounts and packages and displayproducts or gadgets that are otherwise not available in the
shopping marts. Given the present situation,where online
shopping in India developing gradually,people purchase objects
such as electronic gadgets, books, air and rail tickets, attires and
designer apparels, audio cassettes, CDs,computer
peripherals,online gifts,showpieces, paintings, gift vouchers, gift
articles and many others.
However, if developed and operated correctly there could be
other luxury as well as necessity products too that can be
purchased online.Most online shopping websites in India offer
detailed product information so that a customer can take time to
read and select the item that best fits his bill. A greater advantage
that online shopping has over conventional shopping is thatyou can shop anytime fromanywhere.
