Points to make your decision easy

Creating your own online store to sell products across India is simpler than ever. Unlike registering on an e-commerce platform, setting up a personal store involves a few extra steps. You'll need a website domain, a digital marketing strategy to boost product visibility, and a secure payment gateway to process transactions.

To start selling on an existing e-commerce platform, all you need are a few key registrations: business registration, trademark registration, and GST registration in India. Once these are complete, open a business bank account and begin your journey by registering on the platform of your choice.
