# How many Shopify stores are in India?

56,821 stores. Only 521 flagged dropship (0.9%). Average visits are 11,062 — more than double the US. Median modeled revenue is $263, not $8. The India catalog is brands with traffic. The usual job from this region is still a US/UK list. Both cuts live in the same index.

## Catalog snapshot (2026-09-04)

| Metric | Value |
| --- | --- |
| stores tagged India | 56,821 |
| dropship share | 0.9% |
| avg monthly visits | 11,062 |
| stores (unfiltered) | 56,821 |
| flagged dropship | 521 (0.9%) |

## Ethnic wear is not a Western vertical

Apparel / home / clothing are the crowded rooms. Two quieter tells: skincare (613 shops, 45.9k average visits) and ethnic wear (389) — that second list barely exists if you only spy the US.

| Active India stores by vertical (≥500 visits/mo) | stores |
| --- | --- |
| Apparel | 1344 |
| Home Decor | 1309 |
| Clothing | 1295 |
| Women's Clothing | 1128 |
| Consumer Electronics | 1118 |

## boAt, GIVA, The Derma Co — not a dropship wall

Head of the India visit list is audio, jewelry, and skincare brands. Same pull method as the US page. None of these five is a one-SKU import shop.

| Domain | Vertical | Visits |
| --- | --- | --- |
| boat-lifestyle.com | Audio equipment | 7,214,868 |
| palmonas.com | Hair care | 5,913,885 |

## India searches “dropshipping suppliers” — 2,100 a month

Ahrefs IN: “shopify india” is 6,600/mo (KD 1, $0.10 CPC). “dropshipping suppliers” is 2,100/mo and KD 55. That second phrase is the real job: map a vendor, not install Shopify. source_map is the tool.

| Keyword | Volume | KD | CPC USD |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| shopify india | 6600 | 1 | 0.1 |
| dropshipping suppliers | 2100 | 55 | 0.06 |
| shopify stores india | 20 | — | 0.15 |

## Longer India note

The market page is the catalog cut. The dated note walks the two jobs — local brand list vs US outreach — with the same numbers and the operator-market comparison chart.

[India store lists — local catalog + US outreach](https://www.neonjelly.io/blog/india-store-lists.md)

## Two jobs from India

Local read, or Western outreach. Do not mix them in one sentence.

- 20 United States skincare stores, >10k visits, email on file.
- India ethnic wear over 8k visits, Instagram present.
- Vendors supplying thedermaco.com bestsellers, under $25.

## How the numbers were calculated

- Country totals: `get_countries` / `GET /v1/analytics/countries`. Dropship % = `round(1000 × dropshippers / stores) / 10`.
- Vertical bars: `GET /v1/stores?countryCode=IN&groupBy=vertical&minVisits=500`. Floor drops parked shops. `(unclassified)` omitted. `storeCount` is shops that clear the floor, not the unfiltered country total.
- Mean vs median modeled revenue: catalog fields on the unfiltered country row.
- Keyword tables: Ahrefs Keywords Explorer, country-local Google volume (12-month average), KD 0–100, CPC in USD (API cents ÷ 100). Pulled 2026-09-04. We do not invent volumes.
