MUMBAI, India, August 29, 2013 – Rediff.com India Pvt. Ltd (NASDAQ : REDF) today enhanced its online shopping marketplace offering, by introducing a free app, “Rediff Shopping” that enables users in India to check prices of books by simply scanning the barcode and then make purchases directly from their mobile devices.

Apart from books, some of the key categories from which consumers can purchase goods using the Rediff Shopping app are Apparel, Accessories and Bags, Mobile Phones and Accessories, Sports and Fitness Equipment, Cameras and Optics, Toys and Games, Computers & Peripherals, Home Décor & Furnishings, among others. Users can browse the top selling deals on products and the top selling books or use the search function directly on the Rediff Shopping app to look up a product of their interest.
