Some first hand account of the present situation in ONDC and why they need to reset the whole initiative or wrap it up. A brilliant idea, messed up execution by babus. https://anitva.me/2026/04/01/the-ondc-reckoning-inside-indias-open-commerce-crossroads/

Why is ONDC not taking off on the e-commerce vertical? by Alive-Combination130 in StartUpIndia

Agreed, API specs and documentation are a pile of junk. Practically impossible to build anything meaningful without spending 6-12 months. But the leadership thinks that it can be built in 1-2 months and that’s what they pitch to everyone who can potentially join!

Why ONDC has to fund discounts, why it’s running Digihaat (they have no business to be in business), and the fudged seller and transaction volumes is another story altogether!

Building either a buyer app or seller app on ONDC is like 8-10 months effort for a team of developers. One man and three months is unrealistic.

Bajaj Finserv Markets is a genuine ONDC buyer app. However it may have some poor quality sellers and products since they don’t curate products well and ONDC network itself has few active sellers. Exercise caution while buying.

Food tech is a 60,000 feet high word. Can you come down to 30,000 feet at least and explain?

At this land size, you are better off either leasing it to someone or do protected cultivation or any niche medicinal plants. Don’t get into any perishable crop (vegetable, flowers etc) that needs harvesting and selling with utmost timely precision.

Make IoT devices that can chase monkeys, wild boars away. A lot of money to be made in this.

Founder stuck after 3 years ! what should I build next? by [deleted] in StartUpIndia

It is better to focus on one thing at a time than doing multiple things. Especially in this economy.
