Magento Development for Indian Online Stores
Adobe Commerce and Magento Open Source stores for catalogues that have outgrown simple platforms, plus rescue work on stores that are slow, outdated or stuck on a broken extension.
Magento is a heavy platform. It suits stores with thousands of SKUs, customer-specific pricing, several warehouses or a B2B buying flow. It is a poor fit for a shop selling forty products. Our first job on any Magento enquiry is to confirm you actually need it. We would rather lose that project than build something you will resent paying for.
NioDelta is a software studio in Kothrud, Pune, founded in 2017. We build new Magento stores, take over inherited ones, and repair the usual damage: abandoned extensions, failed upgrades, slow category pages and checkout steps that do not match how Indian buyers pay. Every engagement begins with a written look at what is actually installed and why.
Why Magento projects go wrong
Too much platform for the catalogue
Many stores are sold Magento when a simpler platform would do. Hosting, upgrades and developer time then cost more than the sales justify. We say so before you commit.
Extension pile-ups
Ten extensions from ten vendors often fight each other and block upgrades. Each one adds load time and a possible security gap that nobody owns.
Stuck on an old version
Stores left on an unsupported release get no security patches. Moving forward without breaking custom code needs a staging copy and a tested path, not a weekend upgrade.
Checkout that ignores India
Foreign-built checkouts miss UPI, COD limits, pincode serviceability and GST-correct invoices. Buyers drop out at the payment step and nobody knows why.
Our Magento development services
New store builds on Magento Open Source
A clean install with a custom or lightly modified theme, only the extensions you need, and a catalogue structure planned before import. Good for large catalogues without the licence cost of Adobe Commerce.
Adobe Commerce projects
When you need staging tools, B2B modules or a support contract with Adobe, we scope and build on Adobe Commerce. Licence fees are paid by you directly to Adobe and are separate from our quote.
B2B catalogues and quote flows
Company accounts, buyer roles, tiered pricing, minimum order quantities, quote requests and credit-term ordering. Useful for distributors and manufacturers who currently take orders on WhatsApp and Excel.
Extension audit and repair
We review what is installed, remove what is dead, replace what is unsafe and fix what conflicts. You get a written list of findings before any repair work starts.
Version upgrades and migration
Planned moves to a supported Magento release, or off Magento to a simpler platform when that is cheaper to run. Code, data and URLs are tested on staging first.
India checkout and compliance
Razorpay, PayU or Cashfree with UPI, COD rules, shipping aggregator links, GST-correct tax invoices and HSN codes on products.
How a Magento project runs
Discover
We audit the existing store or list your catalogue, order volumes, ERP and warehouse needs. We also check if Magento is really the right choice.
Define
You get a written scope covering extensions, integrations, hosting size and a fixed quote. Anything we cannot estimate is called out, not hidden.
Design
Category, product and checkout screens are designed for phones first, since most Indian shoppers order from mid-range Android devices.
Build
Work happens on a staging server you can open any day. Imports, tax rules and payment tests run before launch, not after.
Ship & extend
We run a launch checklist covering redirects, indexing and backups, then support the store for one month. Longer care is available as a monthly plan.
What it costs
Magento work varies too much for a single number. A fresh ecommerce store build starts at ₹75,000 (excl. GST) on simpler platforms, and Magento projects are scoped above that.
- Number of products and attributes
- B2B pricing and approval rules
- ERP, warehouse and shipping integrations
- Hosting size and security setup
- Quality of existing code to repair
All prices exclude 18% GST. See also website costs and app costs.
Questions we get asked
Is Magento still worth choosing in 2026?
Yes, for large or complex catalogues, B2B ordering and multi-warehouse stock. For small stores it is rarely worth the running cost. We compare it with Shopify and WooCommerce against your actual order volume before recommending anything.
Can you fix a Magento store another developer built?
Usually yes. We start with a paid or free audit, depending on size, and give you a written list of problems with a fixed estimate. We do not touch production until we have a tested backup and a staging copy.
Do you work on Adobe Commerce as well as Open Source?
Yes. Adobe Commerce adds a licence fee paid to Adobe, which is not part of our quote. We will tell you honestly if the extra features justify it or if Open Source covers your needs.
Can Magento handle GST invoices and COD?
It can, with correct tax rules, HSN codes and a payment setup tuned for India. COD is handled with order value limits and pincode checks to cut returns. These need careful configuration, they do not work out of the box.
How much does a Magento store cost?
It is quoted after a discovery call because catalogue size, integrations and hosting vary widely. Our basic ecommerce store build starts at ₹75,000 excluding GST, and Magento scope is above that with a fixed written quote.
Can you move my Magento store to Shopify or WooCommerce?
Yes. We migrate products, customers and order history, and set 301 redirects so search rankings are kept. This is often the right call when Magento running costs are higher than the revenue complexity requires. We also check that Magento running costs are not eating the margin first.
