Nokia India has launched an online store, Nokia Shop on an Indiatimes* sub-domain, to sell its handsets, reports BGR.in. The online store is powered by Indiatimes Shopping, which will also take care of customer support.

Shipping time varies between upto 3 days for Metros, 3-5 days for tier-2 cities and 5-10 days for the rest. The site also offers Interest free EMIs of 3 and 6 months on phones. The site has a 7 day return policy, under which unused products can be returned for a refund or replacement, within the period. We had expected that Nokia would directly link to the Indiatimes shop from the front page.

The user is not taken to the Indiatimes domain till the time he clicks on the Buy Now button. We presume that Nokia might add other online retailers on the site in the future.
