E-commerce & marketplaces
E-commerce and marketplace development
Stores, marketplaces and B2B portals engineered around how you sell, not bent to fit a template.
Pick the commerce model first, then the stack
Many e-commerce problems trace back to a mismatch between business model and software. A wholesaler forced into a retail cart re-keys orders by hand; a brand with three storefronts maintains three catalogues.
So we start with how money and goods move: who sets prices, who holds stock, who ships and who gets paid when. That decides which model you need, and whether a hosted platform can carry it or custom code will pay for itself.
Solutions
Commerce builds we take on

Next.js storefronts on a headless commerce engine and CMS, for brands that need speed, several storefronts or content-led shopping.
How it works
How an online order moves from click to doorstep
The same backbone sits under every store, shopping app and marketplace we build.
- Website or app
Step 1: Shopper finds a product
Search, a category page or an ad leads to a product page showing price, stock and a delivery date for their pincode.
- Payment gateway
Step 2: Checkout and payment
The shopper pays by UPI, card, netbanking or wallet, or chooses COD where you allow it; the gateway confirms payment to your server.
- Order system
Step 3: Order and GST invoice are created
Stock is reserved, a GST invoice with HSN codes is generated and the order appears in your admin or seller panel.
- Warehouse or seller
Step 4: Packed and handed to a courier
A shipping label is printed and a pickup booked through your courier aggregator or a direct courier account.
- Courier and customer
Step 5: Tracked to delivery
Tracking updates reach the shopper by WhatsApp, SMS or email, and failed attempts start an NDR follow-up.
- Admin dashboard
Step 6: Returns, refunds and reorders
Returns trigger reverse pickups and credit notes, while reminders and offers bring the customer back for the next order.
Then it starts again at step 1: Shopper finds a product

| Running costs | Plan, app and possible transaction fees | Hosting and maintenance | Engine fees plus storefront hosting |
| Good fit for | Standard catalogues testing demand | B2B, marketplace or unusual models | Content-led brands, several storefronts |

Plain-English glossary
E-commerce terms, in plain English
- UPI intent
- On a phone, checkout opens the customer’s UPI app directly with the amount filled in, so they only approve with their PIN. On a computer, a QR code does the same job through the phone’s camera.
- Payment webhook
- A message the payment gateway sends your store’s server the moment a payment succeeds or fails. It is the reliable signal to confirm an order, even if the shopper closes the browser mid-payment.
- HSN code
- The Harmonised System of Nomenclature code that classifies each product for GST and determines which tax rate applies. It must print correctly on invoices, so it is stored with every product in the catalogue.
- NDR and RTO
- A non-delivery report is the courier telling you a delivery attempt failed; return to origin (RTO) is the parcel coming back to you. Acting quickly on NDRs is one of the simplest ways to cut RTO costs.
- Headless commerce
- Running the shop’s front end separately from the engine that holds products, carts and orders, connected by APIs. It gives design freedom and several storefronts, at the price of more moving parts.
- ONDC
- A government-backed open network (Open Network for Digital Commerce) where one seller catalogue can be listed across many participating buyer apps. Most sellers connect through a seller-side participant instead of building their own integration.
Product preview
The main screens in a commerce build
Illustrative screens from a store, a shopping app, an admin dashboard and a marketplace seller panel.
Online store. Product pages show variants, the price with GST and a delivery date for the shopper’s pincode before checkout, where many orders are won or lost. 
Shopping app. In an app, repeat customers reorder from past purchases in a few taps, which is where an app earns its place next to your website. 
Admin dashboard. Staff see every order with its payment method and status, print labels and invoices in bulk and spot COD orders still waiting for confirmation. 
Seller panel. On a marketplace, each seller sees sales, commission and deductions line by line, which heads off most payout disputes before they start.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do we choose between an online store, a marketplace and a B2B portal?
Start with who owns the stock and the customer. Selling your own products to consumers points to a store. If other sellers list and ship while you take a commission, you need a marketplace with seller onboarding and settlements. If your buyers are retailers ordering in bulk on credit, start from a B2B portal. Where you need two of these, we plan one shared backend.
Can our website and mobile apps run on the same backend?
Yes, and we usually recommend it. One set of APIs for catalogue, cart, orders, payments and customers serves the website and the Android and iOS apps, so prices, stock and promotions stay consistent and new features are built once. If you already run Shopify or WooCommerce, the apps can use its APIs instead, within the limits those APIs set.
Is selling on ONDC worth considering alongside our own store?
It can be. ONDC (Open Network for Digital Commerce) lets your catalogue appear in several buyer apps, which suits grocery, food and local retail. Sellers usually join through a seller-side participant; building your own network integration is a bigger technical and compliance project. We review your categories and operations first, and keep your own store as the channel where you control pricing and customer data.
