You have to create a custom index field and add custom logic to retrieve categories.
The code which you can use for it:
var allCategories = await this.Commander.Pipeline<IGetCategoriesPipeline>().Run(new GetCategoriesArgument(" "), context);           
var parentCategories = allCategories.Where(category =>
                    sellableItem.ParentCategoryList.Split('|').Any(id =>
                        id.Equals(category.SitecoreId, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)));
