Vaping devices still available on Amazon, Flipkart after India ban by adityakalra
NEW DELHI - Some vaping products were still listed on the Indian websites of Amazon.com Inc and Walmart’s Flipkart on Thursday, while several other websites discontinued their sales a day after the government’s nationwide ban.
Websites such as Vapestop and Litejoy, which offered vaping products online, discontinued their operations and ran disclaimers on their websites related to the government order. A Reuters reporter successfully placed an order for the device on Amazon on Thursday. Other pen-shaped smoking vapes, with a small liquid bottle, were also available on the e-commerce website.
When contacted about the product listings, an Amazon spokeswoman in India said she would provide a comment in due course.
