8. The Proposed Combination pertains to retail sector i.e. B2C (Business to Consumer). The
overall B2C sales can be broadly categorized into organized and unorganized segments.
Organised segment includes supermarkets, hypermarkets, retail chains and online retail
(e-commerce); unorganised segment include traditional low-cost retail run locally by the
owner or caretaker. It is noted that Portfolio Companies and SGS are engaged in B2C
through their respective e-commerce platforms (online B2C). However, in absence of any
competition concern the exact definition of relevant market is being left open in this case.

While the most common nomenclature for entities such as Netflix and Amazon Prime is Subscription
Video on Demand, these companies are often also classified as “Online Video Distributors.” 7 Netflix
has described itself as an “Online Video Distributor” in FCC filings8 , and the Justice Department has
described it as such in antitrust complaints. 9

The phrase “Subscription Video on Demand” was not created because these services were not
distributors, but to distinguish OVDs such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon from a la carte video-on demand
(VOD) services like Vudu and Cinema Now, advertising supported video on demand (AVOD) like TubiTV
and PopcornFlix, and social media streaming services such as YouTube, Twitch, and Periscope.10

Relevant market:- m-wallets

7. The mobile wallets (“m-wallets”) are a type ofsemi-closed PPI, which allows the user to make
payment for products or services to third party(ies).
8. Given the fact that there are multiple modes of payments, evolving nature of m-wallets segment,
entry of new players, and presence of well-established players like State Bank of India, HDFC Bank, ICICI
Bank in the market for provision of digital payment services through m-wallets, the Commission
observed that the Proposed Combination is not likely to raise any significant competition concern and
accordingly decided that the exact delineation of the relevant market be left open.
