作者:

Highlights:

• The perceptual map revealed that consumers can perceive top e-retailers as similar or isolated brands.

• Consumers distinguish top e-retailing brands based on all the seven dimensions of e-service quality.

• Preferential maps indicated that consumers prefer e-retailers that provide better service recovery.

• Web traffic analysis divulged Amazon India and Flipkart as the top two e-retailing brands in India.

• Fulfilment and contact were benchmarked as critical dimensions for managing e-service quality from the top two brands.
