“Mindtree is at the forefront of e-commerce and m-commerce innovation for retailers and CPGs and we have seen the level of profitable growth these initiatives can drive.

We are not just rewarding innovation in e-commerce, but also fostering it by instilling a little friendly competition in the industry,” she added.
