Everything Saanjha does, in one place.

Saanjha is a community-powered commerce and services platform, which is a long way of saying it does several distinct things for several distinct people. This is the whole index — grouped by what you are trying to do.

Buying

Ways to buy that a single household cannot get alone.

Each of these is a different answer to the same question: how does a neighbourhood reach a price that none of its households could reach on its own?

Community buying

A member announces a wholesale trip with a real cutoff, neighbours pool their requirements, and the lot is bought and handed over at a common point.

Requirements marketplace

Post what you need and let nearby sellers respond on price, availability, timing and delivery — instead of calling five shops.

Compare before you buy

The same product carries different pricing and availability across sellers and communities. See them next to each other.

One household, one list

Connect family members so groceries from one parent and vegetables from another build the same shopping list, with permissions your family controls.

Available now, priced by quantity

Sellers announce what is genuinely in stock at different prices for different quantities, and manage inventory so they never oversell.

Finding and joining communities

Discover nearby communities within a set radius, see a read-only preview, and belong to more than one — home, a parents’ group, wherever you shop.

Services

The people a neighbourhood already relies on.

Booking, appointments, packages and recurring visits — with verification that gets stricter as the risk of the category rises.

Local services

Electricians, plumbers, carpenters, house help, salons, spa, therapists, trainers, groomers — with profiles, real availability and quotations.

Appointment booking

Availability is turned into real slots and held on booking, so double-booking is impossible rather than merely unlikely.

Learning and tuition

Tutors, group classes and trial classes — the one category where child-safety verification is mandatory rather than tiered.

Food from home kitchens

Tiffin plans, and neighbours who cooked a little extra offering a portion — under one food-safety spine, with allergens as structured data.

Mobility and community outings

Cab booking, shared rides and community outings with shared expenses — under the strictest verification on the platform.

Religious services

Pandits, pooja services and samagri, plus vastu consulting with its disclaimer intact. Muhurat comes from a licensed source; we never compute it.

Selling

What a local business actually gets.

A selling surface is easy to copy. These are the parts that decide whether a shop stays.

Selling on the open network

Your shelf is published to India’s open commerce network, so shoppers using other apps can find it and order from it — with no subscription, no commission and no transaction fee.

Pricing intelligence

What a product actually sold for near you, week by week, as a price band — so a shopkeeper prices against the local market instead of an MRP. Built with Zobrx.

Counter billing and receipt printing

Pair a Bluetooth thermal printer and print the slip — for a network order or a walk-in customer. Prints in Indic scripts most printers cannot, and queues bills raised with no signal.

Storefront and QR acquisition

A digital storefront and a QR code that turns a walk-in customer into a member of your own community, with attribution back to you.

Referrals and seller-funded offers

Set a welcome or referral incentive on your own terms. You fund it, so you control the value, the conditions and when it stops.

Announcements

Reach your customers about a trip, a cutoff or an offer — inside rate limits and quiet hours that stop the channel becoming noise.

Customer ownership

A household you already serve is recorded as yours, not resold back to you as a paid lead each time they need you again.

Procurement workbench

Order windows, consolidated demand, in-market procurement and allocation back to the orders that generated it.

Sourcing and the trade network

A route to brands, distributors and wholesale markets that one neighbourhood store would not get alone.

Money and movement

How value and goods actually move.

The unglamorous half. Both of these are deliberately simple, because complexity here is where marketplaces lose people’s trust.

Payments

The buyer pays the seller directly — UPI to their own ID, or cash at handover. Saanjha never holds the money.

Returns, refunds and disputes

A defined process with evidence weighed on both sides, rather than an argument at somebody’s gate.

Delivery

A store’s own staff, shared local Saanjha partners, or external logistics — one partner able to serve several stores and communities.

Brands and sponsored offers

Relevant offers that reach a community through the shop it already buys from, with ranking that is not for sale.

Trust

What makes any of this safe between neighbours.

Proximity is the premise of the product, which makes trust and privacy design constraints rather than policy pages.

Verification and the Verified Business badge

Business and owner information, mobile, location, documentation and photographs — with stricter tracks where the category demands them.

Privacy between neighbours

A community preview never shows the member list or the chat, contact matching uses one-way hashes, and small communities are protected from counting.

Community guidelines

What is expected of members, sellers and providers — and the graduated, appealable enforcement that follows if it is not met.

Not on this page

What we have deliberately left off.

An index that only grows is a marketing document. These are real, and they are not here yet.

Anything whose legal position is unsettled. Some categories need a regulatory answer before they need a landing page, and a marketing site is the worst place to settle one.

Anything not built. Several things described in Saanjha’s design documents are real plans and not yet real products. They belong in a roadmap conversation, not in an index that implies you can use them today.

Anything that varies by community. Categories and delivery models switch on area by area. What is listed here exists on the platform; what is available to you depends on where you live.
