I’m putting together a list of go to Indian online stores for all things electronics tools, components, kits, you name it. I have made this list over the last few years. Whether you are building your latest project or just stocking up your workbench, having the right source can make all the difference. Here is what I have found so far :-

Pretty exhaustive list.
But a word of warning - not all have the same level of service so always contact them to check before ordering. If they don't respond move on to the next one. Some of these have threads here in TE where members have shared their experience, so make sure to search and review those.
Here are couple more -
 
Sites I have used so far
  • hubtronics.in - Good prices, fast shipping and good collection of items
  • fabtolab.com - Has a lot of weird niche items. I item I ordered took almost a month to arrive.
I ordered a Alfa AWUS036AXML. A wifi adapter for 4.5k with Wifi6. Offers monitor mode. Alfa adapters on other sites with lower specs are far more expensive.

Like this adapter is 11k on amazon which is lower spec than mine. https://www.amazon.in/Long-Range-Dual-Band-Wireless-External-Antennas/dp/B00VEEBOPG/

If you are looking for hard to find hacking tools you can find it on this site. For example I want to get this in the future. A very powerful SDR tool.

  • robu.in - Ordered components. Planning to order PCBs if I finalize my project.
  • ree52.com - Official raspberry pi vendor in India. Ordered some stuff as well.

Going to Raspberry Pi official site to see official resellers in the country is a good way to find reputed electronics stores as well.

+1

Planning to order PCBs if I finalize my project.
Checkout www.lioncircuits.com/ they are really good. They were the first in India with proper online integration, DFM, etc, no need to call or such, everything gets sorted out over the mails. Robu came later with their service, to take the lead, they started offering minimum order quantity of 5. Now lioncircuits also offers the same, earlier it was 10.

Based out of Ahmedabad. Was disappointed with their packing skills, but the components arrived alright, so I guess I can't really complain.

Customer service exists, picks up calls and is good.


No complaints. Good packaging. Reliable. Based out of Delhi.


In my humble opinion, stay away from electronicscomp.com

No component is worth the hassle and trouble they put you through.

Purchased some stuff from makerbazar.in about a year ago, got delivered quickly but their customer service is bad and never resolved my issues and they don't publish negative reviews on product page

1. Nex-Robotics (*****)
2. Online TPS (****)
3. Deccan Robots / Embedded Market (****)
4. Probots (****)
