ONDC set to go live in 4 more cities this week

The Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) is working vigorously to bring intercity logistics onto the network, which will facilitate buyers from multiple cities to place orders on the platform and scale up fast, senior executives told ET.

ONDC CEO T Koshy told ET, “By the end of this week, we expect to add at least four cities. Three of these cities are Chennai, Thrissur and Kannur. We may become ten from six. We are trying to organically build up. We are attempting 75- 100. We are putting that kind of pressure on our team. We will see a hockey stick graph rise in one year’s time.” The platform is bullish that it will go live in 100 cities by August, the network’s chief business officer Shireesh Joshi told ET.
