Jasper Infotech has planned to sell its SaaS-based, e-commerce focused, warehouse management company Unicommerce eSolutions, a transaction as it looks to raise cash. For this, the company has initiated conversations with multiple parties, including e-commerce giant Amazon, which recently planned to invest in Acko, and Nasdaq-listed business software provider Intuit.

Seeking a Valuation of Rs 150 crore-200 crore

Jasper Infotech is seeking an enterprise valuation of Rs 150 crore-200 crore for Unicommerce eSolutions, which it had acquired in a cash-and-stock deal in 2015. A potential acquisition of Unicommerce could fit into both companies’ strategy.

Amazon Competing with Flipkart

Amazon has been competing with Flipkart to grab the pole position in India’s fast-growing ecommerce sector and has been investing huge amounts of capital in adding to its physical infrastructure in the country.

Given that Unicommerce provides multichannel warehouse management and omni-channel platform to its clients, an acquisition of the same could help the domestic arm of the Amazon to further strengthen its back-end infrastructure.
