contents <p><strong><span>Abstract </span></strong></p> <p><span>India is rapidly going through an e-commerce - tapered exponential expansion and technological disruption in today’s India and retail is seeing unprecedented upheaval. We study in great deal the significant consequences of digital retail platforms on the conventional retail ecosystem, examining their transformations with respect to the mechanism of how they are affecting market share dynamics, trends in employment and their environmental consequences. Using secondary data provided between 2015 and 2023, the research uses a mixed methods approach and sophisticated statistical tools including regression analysis, correlation studies, and hypothesis tests. The research found that market share had shifted significantly, with e-commerce rising from 10% to 40% and conventional retail from 90% to 60%. Employment numbers show 1 million up, 9 million up, and retail down from 50 million to 35 million. Statistical tests support the importance of these changes and reveal ways in which the structure of the retail job environment has changed. Environmental impact assessments show e-commerce to have larger environmental footprints across plastic, cardboard, and mixed material packaging categories, emphasizing the big problems in CO2 emissions from packaging. The research sheds light on how technology integration and environmental and equitable economic development practices must be flexible to address retail continuation. We have some main suggestions in that regard: Developing sustainable packaging options and putting in place supporting legislative frameworks like digital skill training courses. With insights gained from this study, academic researchers, industry strategists, and policymakers wishing to understand the complex dynamics of digital retail development in developing countries will have a complete, data-driven investigation of the change in the retail sector</span></p>
