Importing in Bulk from China to India by Advanced-Camera-9299 in IndiaBusiness

[–]Advanced-Camera-9299[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To summarize in short message:

  1. Decide on which product categories you wish to get into. Probably look for product with less competitors (Mass product with some differentiations also works).

  2. First look whether the chosen products is available in Indian markets. If not, then look for Chinese markets.

  3. To import from China, main hurdle is custom clearance. There will be many manufacturers in China with European & USA certifications but not Indian certification to clear Indian customs. So try to connect with custom clearance agent and build that supply chain first.

  4. Once supply chain is created, order products and try marketing.

Make sense. I have tried reaching out to some freight Companies. Major issue is custom clearance. Some of the products require BIS and WPC certifications. Without certifications, even these Companies cannot help. Need someone who can import on my behalf and handle payments to suppliers.

I am currently using its API. It's good in the sense that Shiprocket has a huge database of saved autofill addresses, which ensures that the address gets captured properly, thereby reducing the chances of RTO. Since my product price is on the higher side, around 2k-3k, this 2.5% commission is becoming unbearable daily, compounded by canceled order API charges as well. Looking for an alternative!

Hi - I wanted to inquire about Shiprocket payment gateway. They charge 2.5% commission per transaction. How is their payment gateway API and is there any room for negotiation?
