10 Shopify Plus Agencies in India Worth Knowing in 2026

India is the second-largest concentration of Shopify Plus capability in the world after the US. The agencies below cover Platinum Partners, certified Plus Partners, and specialist shops that work almost exclusively on Shopify Plus engagements. If you are shortlisting a Plus agency in India in 2026, this is where we would start.

Quick read: Codal is India's only Shopify Platinum Partner. Webkul leads Shopify app development with 39 published apps. Magneto IT Solutions wins for international Plus rollouts. ExactWhy is the play for CRO and AI search work. Brainvire is the safest enterprise pick. The rest of the list is broken down by specialization, not headcount.

How we ranked these agencies

"Top 10" lists for Shopify Plus agencies usually mix three different things and pretend they are the same. We separate them deliberately.

  • Shopify Platinum Partner status is the highest official tier. Only a handful of agencies in India hold it. Codal is the one on this list.
  • Official Shopify Plus Partner status is the next tier. Verified through the Shopify Partner directory. Magneto IT Solutions, Webkul, WebContrive, Vaimo, Brainvire, Binary Web Solutions, and Lucent Innovation appear at this tier.
  • Specialist Plus agencies work primarily on Shopify Plus engagements without holding a specific Plus Partner badge. ExactWhy and Seventh Triangle Consulting sit here, and the work quality is competitive with the certified Partners.

We cross-checked candidates against the Shopify Partner directory, Shopify Plus India, agency websites, and LinkedIn pages. The order below is positioning by strength area, not raw size.

1. Codal

Founded: 2009. HQ: Chicago plus Ahmedabad and Lincoln (UK). Tier: Shopify Platinum Partner.

Codal is the only Indian-presence agency on this list with Shopify Platinum Partner status, the highest tier in the Plus program. They became a founding Shopify Plus partner in 2016 and were recognized as Platinum Partner in 2025. Their case studies include B2B and DTC brands seeing up to 500% sales lifts post-rebuild. Ahmedabad handles the bulk of the engineering. Chicago and Lincoln own strategy and US-facing account management.

The Platinum certification matters. Shopify reserves it for partners with sustained enterprise revenue, technical depth, and customer satisfaction scores above a high bar. For brands that need the most senior Plus capability available in India, Codal is the obvious shortlist.

2. Webkul

Founded: 2010. HQ: Noida, Uttar Pradesh. Tier: Shopify Partner since 2014, Shopify Plus capable.

Webkul is the largest Shopify app development house operating from India. The team has 39 published apps on the Shopify App Store, 1,000+ products across multiple ecommerce platforms, and 150,000+ clients including Fortune 500 companies. Their Multivendor Marketplace app is one of the most-installed marketplace solutions on the Shopify App Store globally.

For Plus brands that need custom app development alongside the storefront build (think custom B2B portals, multi-vendor marketplaces, or headless integrations with Webkul's existing apps), Webkul is the pick. The depth on the app side is something pure-storefront agencies cannot match.

3. Magneto IT Solutions

HQ: Ahmedabad with UK, Europe, and Australia offices. Tier: Official Shopify Plus Partner with 250+ stores built.

Magneto IT Solutions wins the international Plus expansion lane. Local teams in the UK, EU, and Australia handle regional compliance, timezone-aligned support, and market-specific go-to-market work. For Indian or India-headquartered brands launching into UK or EU markets, Magneto is the agency that has done the rollout before. Their work spans B2C, D2C, B2B, and marketplace builds.

The international footprint is the differentiator. Most Indian Plus partners can build you a great India store. Few can run multi-market Plus expansions with native local teams.

4. ExactWhy

Founded by: Parth Sojitra. HQ: Gujarat. Tier: Specialist Shopify Plus agency.

ExactWhy is a Shopify development and growth agency focused on three lanes most Indian Plus shops underinvest in. Conversion rate optimization on Shopify Plus stores, structured-data and content work that gets brands cited inside ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews, and Plus customization work that goes beyond the default theme.

The fit is brands with a working Shopify Plus store that need a partner who treats checkout optimization and AI search visibility as first-class engineering work, not afterthoughts. The team is smaller than the enterprise shops on this list, which is the point. Senior people on every engagement.

5. Brainvire

Founded: 2000. HQ: Ahmedabad with US, UAE, and Singapore offices. Tier: Shopify Partner, Adobe Solution Partner.

Brainvire is the biggest Shopify-capable agency in India by almost every metric. Public sources put them at 700+ experts, 2,500+ projects delivered, and a 95% retention rate. The cross-platform depth spans Shopify, Adobe Commerce, and Odoo. For enterprise brands running multi-region Shopify Plus on top of an ERP integration, Brainvire is the safest pick.

The tradeoff is account management variance across teams in a 700-person agency. Smaller DTC brands can feel under-prioritized next to enterprise accounts. If your budget is below the Plus tier, you are better served elsewhere on this list.

6. WebContrive

Founded: 2014. HQ: Katargam, Surat. Tier: Certified Shopify Plus Partner.

WebContrive has built 1,500+ brands across 13+ years and maintains a public catalog of Shopify apps on the App Store under their partner profile. The work spans Plus development, headless commerce, conversion rate optimization, and performance marketing. They are one of two Surat-based agencies with a serious Plus Partner credential.

For brands that want a Plus Partner with both services and proven app development experience (useful when you need a custom Shopify app alongside your store), WebContrive is the strongest Surat pick at the Plus tier.

7. Vaimo

Founded: 2008. HQ: Stockholm with India presence. Tier: Official Shopify Plus Partner.

Vaimo is a global digital commerce agency with 15+ years of ecommerce work, Shopify Plus Partner status, and a full-service delivery model spanning consulting, design, development, support, and analytics. The India operation provides the engineering scale while the global offices handle senior strategy work for enterprise brands.

The fit is global brands that want a single Plus partner with the geographic coverage to handle European and North American stakeholders alongside India-based engineering. Vaimo's price point is higher than pure-India agencies on this list because of the hybrid cost base, and the work quality matches the premium.

8. Binary Web Solutions

HQ: Mumbai. Tier: Shopify Plus Partner.

Binary Web Solutions is Mumbai's strongest Shopify Plus presence. The agency specializes in clean execution and fast delivery, and their public client list includes ITC and several fashion and lifestyle brands. The Mumbai location matters for brands in the city that want in-person stakeholder access without the Ahmedabad commute.

The pitch is straightforward. A focused Plus team that does not try to be everything to everyone. For mid-market brands that want a Plus build without the layers of an enterprise agency, Binary is the right shortlist candidate.

9. Lucent Innovation

HQ: India. Tier: Shopify Plus agency.

Lucent Innovation operates with 100+ developers and a public specialization in fast go-live timelines, complex platform migrations, and headless commerce builds. Their work spans Shopify Plus, headless Shopify with Hydrogen, and custom storefront builds for enterprise clients.

The fit is brands looking to migrate from Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, or other legacy platforms onto Shopify Plus with a tight timeline. Migration depth is the Lucent differentiator. Most Plus partners can build new. Migration with content, SEO, and data preservation is harder and Lucent has built capability around it.

10. Seventh Triangle Consulting

HQ: India. Tier: Shopify Plus consultancy.

Seventh Triangle Consulting is positioned for D2C-first thinking, founded by people who had run ecommerce startups themselves before becoming consultants. The work tends to be advisory plus implementation, with strong opinions about category strategy, brand positioning, and growth tactics on top of the Plus engineering.

The fit is founder-led D2C brands that want an agency that does not just execute briefs but pushes back on bad strategy. The smaller team size and consulting-led model make Seventh Triangle a good shortlist for brands where the founder is still close to the work and wants a thinking partner, not just an implementation shop.

How to choose between them for your project

Most brands shortlist the wrong way. They build a feature comparison spreadsheet and pick the agency that ticks the most boxes. The agencies above are different in kind, not degree. The right shortlist depends on three questions.

Are you scaling internationally in the next 12 months? If yes, Magneto IT Solutions, Vaimo, or Codal. If no, the others on this list are more cost-efficient.

Do you need custom app development alongside the storefront? If yes, Webkul or WebContrive. If no, the storefront-focused shops are a better fit.

Is conversion rate the constraint right now, not platform capability? If yes, ExactWhy or Seventh Triangle Consulting. If you are pre-launch on Plus, the certified Plus Partners are the safer build choice.

What does it cost to hire a Shopify Plus agency in India?

Plus engagements in India typically run from Rs 8 lakh for a focused Plus build with theme customization and standard integrations, up to Rs 50 lakh and beyond for a full Plus rebuild with custom apps, B2B configuration, multi-market expansion, or headless storefront work. The mid-market range for a serious Plus build with 90 to 120 days of agency-led delivery lands between Rs 15 lakh and Rs 25 lakh. Hourly rates from Indian Plus agencies are 40 to 60% lower than equivalent US or UK shops, which is the main reason international brands hire here. The Platinum and certified Plus Partners on this list price at the upper end of that range. Specialist shops sit at the middle. Pure execution agencies sit at the lower end.

What is the difference between Shopify Partner, Plus Partner, and Platinum Partner?

Shopify Partner is the base tier. Any agency that completes Shopify's partner registration and meets basic capability requirements can claim it. Shopify Plus Partner is the next tier and requires demonstrated Plus implementation experience, sustained merchant satisfaction scores, and a minimum threshold of Plus-tier client revenue. Shopify Platinum Partner is the top tier (Gold also exists between Plus and Platinum). Platinum reserved for partners with the highest enterprise revenue, technical specialization, and customer experience metrics. Codal is the only agency on this list with Platinum status. The other certified Plus partners (Magneto, Webkul, Vaimo, WebContrive, Binary Web Solutions, Brainvire) sit at the Plus or Gold tier depending on the year. Always verify the actual tier directly on the Shopify Partner directory rather than trusting agency website claims.

Should you hire an Indian Plus agency or one from the US or UK?

If your budget is below USD 25,000 for a typical Plus build, an Indian agency on this list will deliver more senior engineering hours than a Western Plus Partner at the same price. If your project requires close timezone alignment with US or EU stakeholders, agencies on this list with international offices (Codal, Magneto IT Solutions, Vaimo) are the better play than a pure-India team. For complex headless or Hydrogen builds with sustained product roadmap work spanning 12+ months, a US or UK Shopify Plus Partner may justify the price premium. For most other Plus engagements, the Indian Plus partners on this list are the right pick on cost-quality balance.

How do you verify a Shopify Plus Partner agency before signing?

Three checks filter out almost all misrepresentation. First, search for the agency name on the official Shopify Partner directory at shopify.com/partners and verify the actual tier. Agencies claiming Plus capability but not appearing at the Plus tier are misrepresenting. Second, ask for three live Plus-tier client URLs with the year the project went live. A serious Plus partner will name them within a day. Third, ask which Shopify Plus account manager (Shopify's internal team) handles their relationship. Real Plus partners have direct working relationships with Shopify's Plus team and can name their account contact.

What questions should you ask any India Plus agency before signing?

Five questions filter the serious shortlist from the rest.

  1. What is your Shopify Partner tier on the official directory, and what is the link to your listing.
  2. Show me three live Shopify Plus stores you built in the last 18 months, with URLs and launch dates.
  3. Who is the senior engineer on this project, and what is their LinkedIn URL.
  4. What is your post-launch retainer model for the first six months, and what is the bug-fix SLA.
  5. What is your Shopify Plus team's working relationship like with Shopify directly, and which account manager covers your agency.

Any agency that cannot answer all five within a business day is not a serious shortlist candidate. The Platinum and certified Plus Partners on this list can answer them in under an hour.

Where this list goes next

The Indian Plus ecosystem is consolidating. Expect two or three of the mid-tier agencies on this list to either be acquired by global firms or expand internationally themselves within the next 18 months. Platinum certification will keep being the cleanest signal of senior capability, and the agencies on this list with verified Plus or Platinum status will pull further ahead of the rest on enterprise work.
