Hi Nilesh,

I will just to use open source platform like www.nopcommerce.com instead of starting from scratch, where you will get maximum functionality ready and pre-tested and this will save a significant amount of time. I was helping my friend company http://www.99homemade.com to develop and his first stable version was ready in a two hand half month while he customizing site as per food industry requirement.

Regarding high-level time estimation, based on my experience around 3 to 5 month with 2 to 3 resource.

Hi Nilesh,

Since you have considerable amount of experience in C#.Net, learning MVC framework and Android would not take more time. But still you may need to try things in two different environments one in Web and other in Mobile.

Once you understood the concepts of MVC and start implementing it, then you would not feel much difficulties, but before that you need to do a POC in MVC for better understanding of the framework. Same will apply for android also.

Include the buffer time for POCs also. Then you will get the convincing time frame.
