The business models of small retail convenience stores in India are facing challenges due to the entry of major supermarkets and online merchants, as well as the increasing usage of digital technologies. This study examined the difficulties faced by small retail stores in the face of a deliberate government push towards digital payments, growing competition from big supermarkets and online retailers, and a qualitative methodology using the Technology-Organization-Environment framework. The study's issues include perceived loss of control, technology expenses, and low socioeconomic background of customers, supplier influence, tax and security concerns, bureaucracy, and low trust in external and regulatory environments. The adoption of digital technologies is also being hampered by inadequate physical and digital infrastructure, high costs, and unreliable digital technology.
