Rohan Verma discusses Flipkart’s strategic & minority stake in MapmyIndia

Executive Director of MapmyIndia, Rohan Verma, discusses Flipkart’s minority and strategic stake in MapmyIndia with Manvi Sinha Dhillon of NDTV Profit.

But secondly, Flipkart has also licensed MapmyIndia’s Advanced Maps, the largest and most accurate data set for India, to strengthen the supply chain and logistics areas of their business.
