What is an RFQ? How the Request for Quotation System Works on IndiaKart

If you've ever spent days calling suppliers, chasing quotes and comparing prices — IndiaKart's RFQ system is built for you. RFQ stands for Request for Quotation, and it's the fastest way to source products from verified Indian manufacturers.

How the IndiaKart RFQ System Works

  1. Post Your Requirement — Describe what you need: product name, quantity, specifications, target price and delivery location
  2. Suppliers Respond — Verified manufacturers and wholesalers receive your requirement and submit competitive quotations within 24 hours
  3. Compare Quotes — Review multiple offers side by side including price, MOQ, delivery time and supplier rating
  4. Negotiate — Message suppliers directly to negotiate price, payment terms or customisation
  5. Place Your Order — Accept the best quote and complete your purchase securely on IndiaKart

Why Use RFQ Instead of Searching?

  • Save time — let suppliers come to you instead of browsing hundreds of listings
  • Better prices — suppliers compete for your order, driving prices down
  • Custom requirements — get quotes for non-standard specifications, custom branding or bulk volumes
  • Verified suppliers only — all respondents are GST-verified manufacturers or wholesalers

Who Should Use RFQ?

RFQ is ideal for retail chains, exporters, distributors, industrial buyers and anyone purchasing in bulk. Whether you need 100 units or 10,000 — post your requirement and let IndiaKart do the work.
