Web Development for Kolkata's Diverse Economy
Kolkata is East India's commercial capital — India's second-oldest tech hub with Salt Lake Sector V hosting major IT services firms, a growing startup ecosystem in New Town and Rajarhat, and a rich craft and textile export economy centred around the artisan traditions of West Bengal. Park Street and the CBD remain the traditional business district for professional services.
We deliver remote-first for Kolkata clients — daily standups, weekly demos, documented handovers. Our builds handle Bengali + English bilingual requirements natively, are optimized for the device and connectivity realities of Bengal's mixed urban-suburban audience, and are priced fairly for Kolkata's market without the overhead of a Salt Lake agency.

FAQs from Kolkata clients
Can you build e-commerce stores for Kolkata handicraft and Bengal textile brands?
Yes — Kolkata has a rich handicraft, Kantha stitch, Jamdani, and Baluchari silk ecosystem. We've built Shopify and WooCommerce stores for craft exporters, artisan collectives, and state-sponsored craft boards. We handle certificate of origin documentation, GST invoicing, INR + USD multi-currency, and artisan story-telling pages that convert international buyers.
Do you work with Salt Lake / New Town IT company clients?
Yes. Salt Lake's Sector V and New Town's Rajarhat tech park house major IT services companies, startups, and BPOs. We deliver remote-first with weekly video calls and monthly check-ins for retainer clients. Our builds integrate with standard enterprise tooling (Jira, Confluence, GitHub Enterprise) that IT-sector clients require.
Can you build Bengali-language websites or bilingual Bengali-English portals?
Yes. Bengali Unicode (Bangla script) requires specific font handling, text direction testing, and CMS workflow setup. We build bilingual Bengali+English sites with React-i18next or Next.js i18n routing, test across Windows and Android font renderings, and ensure Bangla text is written or reviewed by a native speaker — not auto-translated.
What about Kolkata's education sector — coaching institutes, school ERP?
Kolkata has a major private school and coaching-institute economy (Madhyamik, HS, WBJEE, JEE prep). School ERP + student portal + fee payment via Razorpay: ₹40-70K, 8-14 weeks. Coaching institute LMS with test series and video classes: ₹50-80K, 10-16 weeks. We handle Bengali + English bilingual UI and WBSEDCL-compliant payment integrations.
Do you travel to Kolkata for meetings?
Yes for engagements above ₹3L. Kolkata is a 2-hour flight from Delhi. We travel for kickoffs and quarterly reviews. For retainer clients we build a quarterly visit into the engagement.
What is your pricing for a Kolkata startup's first website or web app?
Marketing website (WordPress or Next.js, 15-20 pages): ₹20-40K, 3-5 weeks. SaaS MVP or web app: ₹80K-2L, 10-18 weeks. Shopify D2C store: ₹25-50K, 3-6 weeks. We provide a written scope and fixed-price quote before starting any project.
