    The first thing I'd ask is - why would people buy from your ecommerce portal when there are big guns like Amazon and Flipkart already selling IT products.

    How is the market?

    It's already very saturated and the top players already have huge capital to offer discounts. The entry is easy, but gaining market share is tough!

    How to get products from supplier?

    Are you going to build your own inventory? Or are you going in for a marketplace model? You will have to talk to distributors in your region to see if they can offer you a deal. Also start talking directly to the sales people of the companies.

    How get courier contract and full details?

    Just go and talk to the guys at courier collection centers. They'll provide you with the details of the central hub in your city/town and the contacts who you can negotiate with. The discounts are typically based on volume of shipments you can provide to them on monthly basis.
