Once connected, ask your AI assistant to search IndiaMART in natural language. The MCP handles query parsing, filters, and returns live product results — right inside your chat.

"Find cotton shirts suppliers in Delhi"

"Search industrial pumps under ₹5000"

"Show me stainless steel bolts manufacturers"

"Compare LED bulb wholesalers in Mumbai"

"Find bulk exporters of handicrafts"

"Search organic spices from Rajasthan"

You can filter by city, price range, brand, material, business type (manufacturer / wholesaler / retailer / exporter), and more.

Troubleshooting

▶The MCP server isn't connecting

Confirm the URL is exactly: https://imgpt.indiamart.com/mcp
Check your internet connection and try again.
Some corporate firewalls block external API calls — try from a personal network.
Try the test command below to verify the server is reachable.

Test connectivity (run in terminal)

curl -s -X POST https://imgpt.indiamart.com/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-03-26","clientInfo":{"name":"test"}},"id":1}'

▶No results are returned for my search

Try a broader query — e.g., 'cotton fabric' instead of 'organic cotton voile fabric 60gsm'.
Remove city or brand filters to widen the search.
Check that IndiaMART lists this product category — some niche items may not be indexed.
Try rephrasing: 'Show me suppliers of X' rather than 'Find X product'.

▶Product images aren't loading

This can happen in restrictive browser environments. Try refreshing the widget.
If you're on a restricted network, image CDN domains may be blocked.
In Claude Desktop, widget rendering is sandboxed — images load via a secure proxy and may take a moment.

▶The widget UI doesn't appear (plain text only)

Interactive widgets are supported in ChatGPT (web) and Claude (web + desktop).
In VS Code or other generic MCP clients, results appear as text — this is expected behavior.
In Claude, make sure the integration is enabled for the current conversation (click the tools icon).

▶Results look wrong or unrelated to my query

IndiaMART is India's B2B marketplace — results are products and suppliers, not consumer retail.
If you're searching in Hindi or another Indian language, the tool will auto-translate — try English for best results.
Check for typos in product names or brand names.

▶The tool was working but stopped after a while

MCP sessions expire after 30 minutes of inactivity. Re-enable the integration or start a new conversation.
In Claude Desktop, restart the app if the tool disappears from the tools list.
Check if your AI client has an integration health status page.

Can I use this in the ChatGPT mobile app?
