Tata takes on Amazon with super app

The Tata Group in India is all set to conquer the flourishing tech sector with its new “super app” which is designed to provide services to desperate consumers. According to Financial Express, the new platform, which should be ready to launch in India from December or January, is set to put Tatah ead-to-head with rivals including Amazon and conglomerate Reliance Industries in a highly competitive market. The Tata Group which already has a $113bn-revenue empire of selling jewellery and groceries, to financial services and satellite television, also owns steel plants and carmaker Jaguar Land Rover, has so far lagged behind in its consumer-internet offerings.
