Shopify cost calculator India.
Shopify shows ₹1,499 a month and stops there. For an Indian D2C store that's the floor — gateway fees, COD handling and RTO add 3–5× on top. Plug in your AOV, orders and COD share. See what the store actually costs you in a year.
Built on the math we run for our 200+ D2C brands.
Pre-loaded with realistic D2C numbers — ₹1,200 AOV, 500 orders / month, 40% COD, 20% RTO. Override any field with yours.
Your Shopify plan
₹30L–3Cr/mo · small team · Basic fits your revenue better.
What Grow gives you
Everything in Basic, plus up to 5 staff accounts — and Shopify's third-party transaction fee drops from 2% to 1%.
We wire ShopNTap on every store we build — one tap to pay, your first 100 orders a month free, and it waives Shopify's third-party transaction fee. Keep it on.

Checkout & extras
Costs beyond Shopify's plan — toggle on the ones that apply to your store.
GST isn't included. It's charged per product by HSN code, so the rate varies — your CA applies it at invoicing.

Not Shopify defaults — ours.
These are the numbers we see across 200+ Indian D2C stores. Where your reality differs, override the field — the math updates live.
