Web design and development for India

A website that works commercially in one country can fail in another for reasons that have nothing to do with design. In India, the DPDP Act 2023 governs personal data, and RBI rules require card details to be tokenised rather than stored. Payments are a separate problem again: UPI is now the default expectation, alongside Razorpay, PayU and Cashfree; a checkout without UPI loses most consumer traffic. Neither is visible in a template bought off a marketplace, and both are discovered late and expensively.

What you receive

The handover

Finished files

Production-ready output in the format your printer, platform or workshop actually needs — press PDF, editable source, CAD file, font binary or deck, as the work requires.

Editable sources

The working files, not just the export, so your team can change the work later without coming back to us.

Full rights

Copyright transfers to you on final payment. Nothing we make for you is resold or reused elsewhere.

Two revision rounds

Included in the quoted price. Corrections are logged against the draft rather than argued over on a call.

How it works

Five steps, and you approve the first three

01 · Brief

You tell us what the finished thing has to do, and send whatever material you already have.

02 · Scope & price

A written scope, a fixed figure and a delivery date, usually within one working day.

03 · Structure

You sign off the architecture before production starts, so nothing large is built on a wrong assumption.

04 · Production

Work arrives in stages as it finishes, not all at the end, with two revision rounds included.

05 · Handover

Files, sources and rights in your hands, and the invoice closed.

In detail

Building for India — how we work

We start with what the site has to do commercially, then with what it has to do legally in India. Those two conversations happen before any design, because both change the structure rather than the surface.

Because writers, designers and developers sit in the same studio in Chennai, the copy and the design are produced together. Most website projects fail on content arriving late and being poured into a layout that was not built for it; here the two are written at the same time.

Fixed price agreed in writing, quoted in INR or US dollars. Two revision rounds at design stage, source files and documentation on handover, and no ongoing lock-in for routine changes.

What a India website has to get right

Built for the law, the payments and the language of this market

The law that applies here

In India, the DPDP Act 2023 governs personal data, and RBI rules require card details to be tokenised rather than stored. We build to it from the start rather than retrofitting a cookie banner afterwards.

Payments the market uses

Here that means UPI is now the default expectation, alongside Razorpay, PayU and Cashfree; a checkout without UPI loses most consumer traffic. Checkout is designed around the methods people actually reach for, not around whatever the platform ships with.

Language handled properly

The site is built for English plus Hindi and regional languages, with Indic fonts that need proper OpenType shaping to render conjuncts correctly. Where a second language is needed it is a full parallel version, not a machine-translated layer over an English layout.

Domain and hosting

In this market, .in and .co.in through INRegistry, with GST-compliant invoicing built into any commerce flow. We tell you what you will need before the build begins rather than at launch.

The practical trap

The thing that catches most projects here: most Indian traffic is on mid-range Android over patchy mobile data, so a design that tests well on a desktop connection routinely fails in the field.

Yours to run afterwards

The site is handed over with the source files, the content management access and written documentation. You are not locked into us for ordinary changes.

Everything is built by the same studio that writes the content, so the copy, the structure and the design are produced together rather than assembled from three suppliers.

What you receive

What a India build includes

  • A responsive site designed mobile first and tested on real devices
  • Compliance built in: consent, privacy text and accessibility to WCAG 2.1 AA
  • Checkout configured for UPI is now the default expectation, alongside Razorpay, PayU and Cashfree
  • Full language handling for English plus Hindi and regional languages
  • Domain, hosting and deployment guidance for India
  • Source files, CMS access and written documentation on handover

Typical build is four to ten weeks depending on scope. Fixed price agreed in writing before work begins, quoted in INR or US dollars.

Questions we are asked

Frequently asked

What law applies to a website in India?

In India, the DPDP Act 2023 governs personal data, and RBI rules require card details to be tokenised rather than stored We build to it rather than adding a banner afterwards.

Which payment methods should my checkout support?

In this market, UPI is now the default expectation, alongside Razorpay, PayU and Cashfree; a checkout without UPI loses most consumer traffic A checkout missing the dominant local method underperforms badly whatever else it does well.

Do I need the site in more than one language?

Here the expectation is English plus Hindi and regional languages, with Indic fonts that need proper OpenType shaping to render conjuncts correctly Where a second language is required we build it as a full parallel version rather than a translation layer.

What about domain and hosting?

In India, .in and .co.in through INRegistry, with GST-compliant invoicing built into any commerce flow We confirm what you will need before starting, not at launch.

What is the single biggest mistake made here?

Typically this: most Indian traffic is on mid-range Android over patchy mobile data, so a design that tests well on a desktop connection routinely fails in the field.

Questions

Before you commission

How much does thesis to book conversion cost?

Prices are fixed in writing before work begins. Scope, language count and turnaround move the figure; volume across a programme brings it down. Send the brief and you have a number within a working day.

How long does it take?

Most single deliverables run three to fourteen weeks depending on length and complexity. Programmes are staged so early parts reach you while later parts are still in production. You get a date with the quote.

Who does the work?

A specialist from our thesis to book team, with an editor and a production person on the same project. Everyone is bound by the same confidentiality terms.

Do I own the result?

Yes. Full copyright transfer, editable sources and production-ready files on final payment. Nothing is resold or reused.

Can it be produced in other languages?

Yes — any of a hundred-plus languages, typeset in the same studio so layout and page numbers match across editions.

Do you work with clients outside India?

Yes. Publishers, institutions and founders in the United States, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Canada, Australia and Japan. Work is delivered by email and shared drive and quoted in US dollars.
