FAQ
People about to put their own money into stock ask harder questions than people picking a job course. These are the ones that actually come up at the counselling table.
How long is the e-commerce product selling course in Jaipur, and what are the batch timings?▾
The course runs 2 to 3 months depending on the track you choose. Weekday batches meet 5 days a week for about 1.5 to 2 hours a day, and weekend batches cover the same material over a slightly longer period, which suits shop owners and working people. Add about an hour a day at home — listing, packing and replying to buyer messages is work you have to do yourself to learn it.
Do I need my own product or stock before joining?▾
No. You can join with nothing and work on a sample product provided in class. That said, students who bring a family product, a supplier contact or a shop finish faster and often make their first sale before the course ends. Module 3 covers finding and negotiating with a manufacturer if you do not have one.
How much money do I need to actually start selling?▾
For most Jaipur categories a realistic first catalogue costs ₹20,000 to ₹60,000 in stock, plus packing material and GST registration. Jewellery and small textile items can start under ₹15,000 with twenty pieces of one design; razai, marble and décor need more because they are bulky. This is separate from the course fee, and you should never borrow at high interest to buy first stock.
What is the course fee and are there any hidden charges?▾
The 2-month online selling starter is ₹9,000, the 3-month marketplace seller track is ₹16,000, and the 6-month e-commerce business track is ₹26,000. The fee covers training, study material, tool access during the course and the certificate. No-cost EMI is available above ₹15,000, and there is no separate exam, material or certificate charge. Your stock, GST registration and ad budget are your own costs and we tell you what they come to.
Do I need a GST number to sell on Amazon, Flipkart or Meesho?▾
For most categories, yes — a GSTIN is required before you can list. A few exempt categories work differently, and the rules change, so we check your specific category in class. Module 4 covers registration, HSN codes, tax invoices and the settlement reports, so you understand your own numbers. A CA is only needed for the monthly filing, not for running the account.
How is this different from the dropshipping course?▾
Completely different business. In dropshipping you hold no stock, the supplier ships, margins are thin and the quality is out of your control. Here you buy the product, own the margin and control the quality, but your money is tied up in inventory until it sells. Both are taught honestly at Infonic — read the dropshipping course page as well and pick the one that matches how much capital and control you want.
Can I do this from home, or do I need a shop or godown?▾
Home works for most people starting out. A room with shelf space, a printer for labels and packing material is enough, and couriers pick up from your address under Amazon Easy Ship, Flipkart or Shiprocket. A godown only becomes necessary when volume grows, and by then the business is paying for it.
What do students actually earn from this course?▾
Net margins after commission, shipping, GST and returns run roughly 12% to 22% in block print textile, 20% to 35% in imitation jewellery, and 25% to 40% in private label with your own brand. In practice a small first catalogue nets ₹5,000 to ₹20,000 a month in the first three to six months, and most of that should go back into stock. Be clear about this: it is a business with your own working capital at risk, not a salary. Some students lose money on their first product. Anyone promising you a fixed monthly income from online selling is not being straight with you.
If selling does not work out for me, can I still get a job?▾
Yes, and many students take that route deliberately. Cataloguing and listing executives start at ₹10,000 to ₹16,000 a month in Jaipur, marketplace executives with a year or two earn ₹18,000 to ₹28,000, and account managers go higher. Exporters and brands in Sitapura and Malviya Nagar hire all year. The catalogue you build in class is the portfolio that gets you the interview, and eligible students go into a paid internship first.
Are online classes available, and do I get a certificate?▾
Yes to both. The online sessions are live rather than recorded, so you can ask a question in the middle of a practical exactly as you would in class, and students from Sikar, Kota, Alwar, Udaipur and Bikaner attend that way. The certificate is issued once you complete the training. Be clear though — in this field a live listing with real orders behind it counts for far more than a certificate, and that is what you leave with.
