Stelcore is a platform that helps brands simplify their direct-to-consumer (D2C) operations.
It sits between a brand's online storefront and physical fulfilment operations.
The platform connects order and inventory systems with warehouses and logistics providers.
Stelcore processes nearly 1.5 million orders each month across its network.
It has more than 300 clients in India and has worked with over 3,000 brands globally.
Clients include GSK, Cipla Health, Zydus, Philips, Hero, and HUL.

Delivery timelines in India have improved by 65% over the past seven years, per a Redseer report.
Stelcore positions itself as an operating layer, not a traditional 3PL (third-party logistics provider).
The platform uses an order management system (OMS) to route orders based on brand rules, PIN code, and SLA (service level agreement).

Stelcore was founded in 2012 by Bharat Mandot.
Its initial focus was on cross-border commerce and compliance.
The platform connects a brand's storefront with physical fulfilment operations.
It works with logistics partners Blue Dart and Shiprocket.
Stelcore has more than 260 fulfilment locations across 150+ cities.
It supports 250-300 domestic storefronts in India.
Post-delivery services include reporting, reconciliation, and returns.
The platform claims brands save almost 80% by cutting the need for a large operational team and real-time tech integration.

Stelcore is working towards greater automation and a denser domestic fulfilment network.
It plans to connect these capabilities with cross-border operations.
