India's Richest Man Is Getting WhatsApp's Help in Effort to Crush Amazon and Walmart
India's wealthiest man -- entered the country's e-commerce market with a bang last year and take on American heavyweights Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Walmart (NYSE: WMT). Ambani's JioMart e-commerce venture scaled up rapidly in a short time, thanks to parent company Reliance Retail's already extensive physical footprint across the country. JioMart is now all set to scale up to the next level, thanks to its partnership with Facebook (NASDAQ: FB), which invested $5.7 billion in Ambani's Jio Platforms venture last year for a 9.99% stake.
