Freshness:

While store bought curd has preservatives to extend shelf life homemade curd is freshly made.

Taste:

Homemade curd is tangy and rich in taste, whereas market-bought bought is less fresh and slightly processed.

Texture:

When you consume homemade curd it will be creamier and thicker in taste whereas store bought will have different texture.

Additives:

The market curd contains preservatives and stabilizers whereas homemade curd is free of additives.

Nutritional Value:

Homemade curd is better for digestion as it contains better probiotics and retains live cultures. (Image Credits: Gemini)
