• A. Amazon
• B. Flipkart
• C. Reliance
• D. Paytm

Hint:

When identifying MoU signatories, link the organisation’s core business strengths to the purpose of the agreement — Flipkart’s e-commerce platform is ideal for promoting crafts and handlooms.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Flipkart, one of India’s leading e-commerce companies, signed an MoU with the Department of MSME and Mines of the Government of Karnataka.
The objective of this agreement is to promote the arts, crafts, and handloom sector of the state by providing artisans and weavers access to online marketplaces.
This initiative enables small-scale producers to expand their reach beyond local markets and connect with customers nationwide.
Option (A), Amazon, also works with artisans but was not the signatory in this particular MoU with Karnataka.
Option (C), Reliance, is involved in retail but not in this specific handloom promotion agreement.
Option (D), Paytm, is a fintech company focused on payments and commerce but not on this partnership.
Therefore, the correct answer is (B) Flipkart.
