Inefficient utilization of capacity also creates difficulty to reach the breakeven point.

Online B2B Platform Market in India
Industry Overview
There are ~20 B2B platforms catering only to the manufacturing MSMEs across India. The industry is at a nascent stage and holds high potential for growth in the future. The highest user penetration is of Online Listing & Marketplace as many of MSME use this service to generate business leads. SaaS has not been able to gain much traction & is very rarely used as of now.
Competition Scenario
The competition is not very high in the industry as there is a lack of vertical platform players in the market, but it is expected with the emergence of new players in the future, the industry competition would become fierce. In the online listing & marketplaces segment, the players compete on the basis of listing charges & commission rates. IndiaMART is the biggest player in terms of users & suppliers & controls ~60% of the market of online listing.
Industry Bottlenecks Faced
Bad quality of leads along with low conversion rates, high commission charges, leading to loss of margins, lack of end to end solutions in lots of platforms, lack of quality checking procedures on platforms leading to loss of repetitive business & stringent payment terms & often there is a lack of good credit facilities in the industry, all above factors are considered the major bottlenecks in the industry by players as well as by MSME manufacturers.
Future Strategies-The Way Forward
Special Focus on Vertical Marketplace needs to be given in order to acquire expertise. International competition across the globe will be the next big thing. Development of new categories of retail & wholesale would be leading the innovation scenario, while cost optimization across various service streams will become important along with harnessing Artificial Intelligence, Data Analytics as well as Deep Learning Algorithms to facilitate and identify demand and trend analysis in advance for exploiting future growth opportunity.
