The Opportunity
During IPL season, millions of Indian cricket fans want official and unofficial team merchandise — jerseys, caps, flags, and memorabilia — but supply is limited to big online platforms and expensive official stores. Local shops and small entrepreneurs have no easy way to stock and sell affordable team-branded products to their neighbourhood fans who want to buy immediately during match seasons.

Why NowGST registration required (sell to retailers or if turnover exceeds ₹20 lakh).
