What has to change
- English is the default listing language and Hindi is accepted too. Hindi is written in Devanagari script, not Latin letters.
- Large numbers are grouped in lakhs and crores: one hundred thousand is written "1,00,000", not "100,000".
- Indian English has its own product names. A kitchen scale is commonly a "kitchen weighing scale". Prices are in rupees.
What a translator gets wrong
Treating Indian English as British English. The spelling matches, and the product names and the number grouping do not.
The same title, both ways
Before

On amazon.in
Nordhaus Digital Kitchen Weighing Scale 5 kg, Stainless Steel
Starting from a UK title: "weighing scale" is the everyday Indian English name for the product.
