The demonetisation effect may have prompted shoppers to go online recently, but e-commerce majors Flipkart and Amazon entertained buyers with deals and offers throughout the year. The rivalry among online retailers was just as intense this year, with every e-tailer trying to bag as many exclusive products as possible.
As we mark the end of 2016 this week, let's take a look back at the hottest products on Amazon and Flipkart this year. People are less sceptical about online shopping, thanks to retailer's guarantee on products and easy returns options.
