Business Challenge – Meet Demands and Improve Manufacturing Efficiency
The Goods and Services Tax (GST) enacted in India required many companies to find a technology solution to keep up with high volume of daily transactions. This involved B2B, B2C, SEZ, and exports. A Maharshtra based automobile manufacturing company was majorly disrupted by the implementation of India’s GST. Finding the right software solution was essential in creating a smooth transition period, maintaining GST compliance and meeting customer needs.
