Why Stripe for this
Shopify's advantage is that almost nothing is your problem: hosting, PCI compliance, uptime and checkout are handled. The trade is that you work within the platform, so the skill is knowing what to build around it and what to leave alone.
Stripe is strongest at the cleanest API in payments and strong subscription primitives. For shopify development that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.
The honest trade-off: Indian domestic collection is usually better served by a local provider. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. Every engagement opens with a measurement: the cycle time, the cost per transaction, or the error rate we are being asked to move.
We hand over with runbooks, tests and a team that knows how it works, not a dependency.

Questions
Is Shopify suitable for India?
Yes. UPI, cards, netbanking and COD are all workable through Indian payment apps, and the major logistics aggregators have Shopify integrations. The main consideration is platform fees against your margin.
Can Shopify handle B2B pricing?
With Shopify Plus and a private app, yes, customer-specific pricing, quantity breaks and quote flows. On the standard plan it is possible but more constrained.
Will migrating hurt our SEO?
Only if the redirects are done carelessly. We map every existing URL before cutover and verify the redirects afterwards.
Alternatives for shopify development
Same capability, different stack. Each page states its own trade-off.
