PROJECTB2B Wholesale Procurement Marketplace for FMCG Retailers
RATIONALEIndia has 12M+ kirana stores that still procure stock through distributors via phone calls and cash. A digital B2B marketplace with net-30 credit lines (underwritten by a NBFC partner) and GST-compliant invoicing is a ₹40L Cr market opportunity. NestJS handles complex order workflows (RFQ, quote, PO, dispatch, invoice); BullMQ manages async logistics webhooks and credit limit checks. Redis caches product catalogue for instant search.

⚠ RISK FLAGS
!GST e-invoicing (IRN) is mandatory for turnover > ₹5 Cr; integrate the IRP sandbox from day one even if your initial GMV is below threshold.
!B2B credit carries regulatory risk — structure the credit product through a licensed NBFC partner, not directly.
!Shiprocket API reliability is inconsistent; implement a webhook retry queue and surface logistics failures clearly in the admin panel.
