To run an online auction in India, the following procedure must be followed:

1. Registration at online auction sites: The first step for both the buyer and seller before participating in an online auction is to register on an online bidding site. Registration is required in order to keep a track of the items you bid on or sell. The seller meets the potential buyers with the competitive bids.

2. Listing of the item by the seller on the online auction sites: The seller lists one or more items for sale on the bidding site and sets up a starting price for bidding. The seller is expected to give a complete description and specifications of the items on sale. Mostly, a specified time period is set up for bidding. In some cases, the bidding process takes place live where on a specific date at a pre-specified time period, bidders log-in with their IDs and place their bids.

3. Bidding on online auction sites: Buyers visit the website, select the preferable item and bid on them during the online auction duration.

4. Online Bidding: The online bidding for each auction closes at the specified time. In the case of multiple bidders, the bidder with the highest online bid at the end of auction is likely to buy the items. If there is no online bidding at or above the reserve price, the auction closes without a winner. At the end of a successful online auction, the buyer and seller communicate over an email to arrange for payment and delivery of the goods.
