Noida based Moglix has been ranked No.1 with FY18 revenue coming in at 120x of their FY16 revenue. Moglix is funded by marque investors like IFC, Accel and Ratan Tata, and within 3 years of inception, it has emerged as India’s leading B2B e-commerce Company. Bangalore based payments technology company, Razorpay, has emerged as the 2nd ranked company this year and has grown 110x from 2016 to 2018. The third place went to Delhi-based Cashify, which grew approximately 70x from 2016 to 2018.
