    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Delhi, Feb 4 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; Better enforcement of FDI policy on e-commerce will contribute significantly to growth of the sector over medium and long term, said C. R. Chaudhary, Minister of State for Commerce and Industry.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The e-commerce sector is expected to keep growing in future because of a number of reasons. The FDI policy on e-commerce has also remained unchanged, he added.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;In order to ensure due compliance with the FDI policy on e-commerce, the ministry has issued norms putting in place certain conditions. &lt;br /&gt;&#13;
&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
As per those conditions, an entity having equity participation by e-commerce marketplace firm or its group companies will not be permitted to sell its products on the platform run by such marketplace entity. &lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;E-Commerce marketplace entity will not mandate any seller to sell any product exclusively on its platform only, Chaudhary said.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Stakeholder consultations on creating a framework for National Policy on e-Commerce with representatives from Government Ministries, Departments, Reserve Bank of India, industry bodies, e-commerce companies, telecom companies, IT companies and payment companies have been held. Issues regarding the e-commerce sector are regularly reviewed by the Government, Chaudhary said.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Chaudhary has given this information in written replies at the Lok Sabha.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
