Why Tilda Newra businesses are investing in custom e-commerce platforms
Tilda Newra is a commercial centre in Chhattisgarh, India, and one of the places where we build custom e-commerce platforms for local businesses.
Rice-milling cluster — a business base that increasingly wants to sell online rather than through calls, messages and spreadsheets.
Across Chhattisgarh, the economy is shaped by steel, power, coal and minerals, rice ("rice bowl of India") and forest produce, with Raipur as the state capital.
India has more than 6 crore (60 million) MSMEs registered on the Udyam portal (Ministry of MSME). India has the world's largest real-time payments system in UPI and one of the fastest-growing online shopper bases, increasingly from tier-2 and tier-3 cities. Businesses that own their store — with UPI, COD, regional languages and WhatsApp updates — build loyal customers instead of renting them from marketplaces.
For a business in Tilda Newra, the opportunity is to own the customer relationship: your own custom e-commerce platform keeps your margin, your data and your brand, while marketplaces and social channels become additional sales routes instead of the only one.

A custom e-commerce platform built around your Tilda Newra business
Every NNT Mart custom e-commerce platform in Tilda Newra is engineered to the client's own brief — the web platform, the admin panel and, when you need one, a mobile application built for your workflow.
Typical clients include multi-brand groups, businesses outgrowing SaaS platforms, companies migrating legacy stores and regulated sectors. Categories that sell especially well online in India — mobiles and electronics, fashion and ethnic wear, beauty and personal care and groceries and FMCG — get catalogue structures and filters designed for them.
We start with a requirements meeting, show you a working demo within 24 hours, and only then propose scope, milestones and budget.

Owning your channel in India

Your custom e-commerce platform becomes the hub: marketplaces and social shops become extra outlets fed from one catalogue, while repeat customers buy directly from you at better margins.
Selling online legally in Chhattisgarh
On tax: India levies GST, rationalised in September 2025 into main slabs of 5% and 18% with a 40% rate for select goods; e-commerce operators collect TCS, and e-invoicing and e-way bills apply above set thresholds.
Businesses registered in Chhattisgarh carry GST state code 22 in their GSTIN, and intra-state sales are billed as CGST + SGST while sales to other states are billed as IGST.
Customer data is handled with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 and the DPDP Rules 2025, alongside the IT Act 2000 in mind, and the storefront follows the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules 2020, which require seller details, country of origin, grievance officers and clear return and refund policies, plus the Legal Metrology rules on product labelling.
We build the technical controls — tax-inclusive pricing, compliant invoices, consent banners, terms and return pages, data-access roles and audit logs. We are not a law firm, so final legal and tax positions should be confirmed with your own adviser in Chhattisgarh.
Android and iOS apps for your Tilda Newra business
Phones carry most traffic in India. Because the platform is API-first, customer, staff and partner mobile apps can be added at any point without rebuilding the backend.
One backend serves the website and the apps, and the apps ship under your own Google Play and App Store accounts — so what you change once appears everywhere.
Push notifications can be timed to UTC+5:30 so offers reach Tilda Newra customers when they are awake, and the interface can run in Hindi and Chhattisgarhi.
- Identity and SSO
- WMS and 3PL systems
- BI and data warehouses
- POS and store systems
- PIM and DAM
- Search engines (Elasticsearch, Algolia)
- Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics and Odoo ERPs
Integrations above are examples; we connect any system that offers a suitable API, database access or approved import and export process.
How we phase your custom e-commerce platform
Value first, depth later. For a custom e-commerce platform serving Tilda Newra, the usual sequence looks like this:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Foundation | Architecture, core commerce, priority integrations and migration. Configured for INR, UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm) and Delhivery from the start. |
| Differentiate | Custom workflows, configurators and automation. |
| Optimise | Performance, new channels, apps and continuous enhancement. Reviewed against how Tilda Newra customers actually buy. |
Success is measured on page load and API response times, uptime, order-sync accuracy, manual-work hours saved, release frequency and total cost of ownership — tracked on a dashboard you can see from launch day.
