Online Store for Your Kirana Shop
Yes — your kirana shop can have its own online store. With e-Kirana your shop gets a branded online dukaan on its own web address, your stock and prices stay fully in your control, and every order lands right at your billing counter. Customers in your area find you by pincode and order online; you pack and deliver from your shop.
This is the big difference: e-Kirana doesn't rent you a slot on someone else's app. You own the store, you own the customers, and you keep the margin.
How it works
- 1Turn on your online store.
Inside the e-Kirana desktop app you switch on your store and pick a name. Your shop gets its own branded storefront on its own subdomain — your dukaan, your address — ready to share.
- 2Your stock syncs live from the counter.
The products, prices and stock you already keep in e-Kirana flow straight to your online store. Bulk-import your catalogue by barcode once, then every price change or stock update on the desktop shows up online automatically. Nothing to maintain twice.
- 3Nearby customers discover and order.
Customers open your store on the e-Kirana customer app or as an offline-friendly web app (PWA), find shops by area and pincode, fill their basket and place the order.
- 4Orders land at your counter — offline-safe.
New orders appear in your e-Kirana billing screen. If your internet drops, orders are captured and synced once you're back online, so you never miss a sale. UPI payments are verified automatically, so you know an order is paid before you pack it.
- 5Deliver from your shop.
Hand the order to your delivery boy with the partner app, batch nearby orders together, follow an optimised route, and let the customer watch live GPS tracking until it reaches their door.
Your own store vs. renting a slot on an aggregator
| What matters | Your e-Kirana online store | A listing on a big aggregator app |
|---|---|---|
| Whose brand is on it | Your shop's name and store | Their app; you are one of many sellers |
| Who owns the customer | You — repeat buyers come back to your store | The platform keeps the customer relationship |
| Who sets prices & stock | You, live from your counter | Often constrained by platform rules |
| Per-order commission | None taken by e-Kirana on your sales | A cut of every order |
| Delivery | From your shop, your area, your way | Their fleet, their coverage and rules |
| Works when internet drops | Yes — offline order capture + cloud sync | Needs their app and network |
Why e-Kirana — you own the store, not just a bill
Most shop apps stop at one thing. Billing-only and digital-khata apps give you a faster bill or a tidy ledger — useful, but they don't put your shop online. e-Kirana's whole point is the opposite: it gives your kirana shop its own branded online store plus home delivery, so you can take orders and serve your neighbourhood the way the quick-commerce apps do — without handing your customers and your margin to a middleman.
In a world where 10-minute delivery apps are pulling shoppers away, having your own online dukaan is how a kirana shop stays in the game. You already have the trust, the location and the local knowledge. e-Kirana adds the online storefront, the UPI verification and the delivery tooling on top — all driven from the same desktop app you bill from, in any of 22 Indian languages.
Honest pricing
e-Kirana is premium, paid-upfront software — no ads, and you own your store and your data. Plans are ₹2,999/year (Standard) and ₹4,999/year (Business), both plus 18% GST, billed annually. There is no free trial and no freemium tier — you pay for a tool that runs your shop, instead of paying with your customer data or a cut of every order. The Business tier adds GST invoicing with HSN codes.
Frequently asked questions
Does my kirana shop really get its own online store?
Yes. Your shop gets a branded online store on its own subdomain — it's your dukaan online, not a listing inside someone else's app. You can share the link with customers, on posters or your shop board.
Do I have to update stock and prices separately for the online store?
No. Your stock and prices sync live from the e-Kirana desktop POS. Update once at the counter and the online store reflects it automatically, so customers see what you actually have.
How do online orders reach me?
Orders appear in your e-Kirana billing screen at the counter. Customers can order through the customer app or the offline-friendly web app. UPI payments are auto-verified before you pack.
What if my internet is patchy?
e-Kirana captures orders offline and syncs them to the cloud once you're back online, so a weak connection won't cost you a sale. Your billing keeps working either way.
Can I deliver to customers myself?
Yes. e-Kirana includes home-delivery dispatch with order batching, route optimisation, a delivery-partner app and live GPS tracking — so you deliver from your own shop, to your own area.
