20 Critical Accounting & Operational Checkpoints Every ₹100 – ₹500 Crore Company Owner Must Review

Why This Matters to You

If you’re running a ₹100 crore to ₹500 crore manufacturing or trading business with multiple plants, factories, or locations across India, you’re likely losing crores annually without even knowing it. Your current accounting software (Tally or Busy, or similar) was designed for small businesses—not for complex, multi-location enterprises like yours.

This checklist exposes 20 critical blind spots that keep you from having real-time visibility, consolidated control, and data-driven decision-making across your entire organization.


🚨 The Hard Truth

Tally and similar accounting software have fundamental limitations that become critical bottlenecks at your scale:

  • ❌ Cannot create one “supplier ledger” across all plants (each location maintains separate ledgers)
  • ❌ Bank reconciliation across multiple locations is manual and fragmented
  • ❌ Consolidated P&L requires manual Excel work—no automatic joint view
  • ❌ Consolidated Balance Sheet cannot be generated automatically across entities
  • ❌ Joint GST payable across all GSTINs? Not possible without manual consolidation
  • ❌ No multi-plant MRP—you’re overstocking in Plant A while Plant B faces shortages
  • ❌ No inter-plant stock optimization—excess inventory sits idle while other plants purchase fresh
  • ❌ Weak Gate Entry System … Goods may not Cross “Gate” … yet accounts may pass the Purchase entry  in Tally Traditional version. ( Finsys has strong GATE entry system with QR codes)
  • ❌ Weak PO Controls System … Since there is no Gate Module…. Goods Come without PO … PV Passing is not Locked
  • ❌ Weak / No Quality Controls System … Goods Fail in QC … yet Purchase entry is not Locked
  • ❌ No Goods in Transit System … Goods go from plant 1 to plant 2… in tally, Plant 2 does not know about any goods in transit
  • Strong Gate Entry System … Goods do not Cross Gate … no Purchase entry in Finsys for “goods”.
  • ❌ Strong PO Controls System … Goods Come without PO … no Purchase entry in Finsys for “goods” ~ PV Passing Locked
  • ❌ Strong Quality Controls System … Goods Fail in QC … Automatic … no Purchase entry in Finsys for “goods” ~ PV Passing Locked
  • ❌ Accounts does not know the Job Card position
  • ❌ Production done even for black listed customer… ( in case of non payment .. ) .. here Job card level control is possible

Result: You’re making ₹500 crore decisions with fragmented, delayed, and incomplete data. & Some Forced Errors also


✅ The 20-Point Checklist: Questions Every Owner Must Ask

Section 1: Multi-Location Accounting & Consolidation (Points 1-6)

1. Single Supplier Ledger Across All Plants

Question: Can you see all purchases from “ABC Supplier Pvt Ltd” across all 5 plants in ONE ledger account?

Reality Check: In Tally, each plant maintains a separate ledger for the same supplier. You cannot:

  • Negotiate better rates with consolidated purchase data
  • Track total exposure to one supplier across the group
  • Identify duplicate payments or discrepancies across locations

What You’re Losing: 0.5%-2% better pricing through consolidated negotiations = ₹0.50 Cr -₹ 10 crore annual savings on ₹500 crore purchases.


2. Consolidated Bank Reconciliation

Question: Can you reconcile  Same bank account used across all locations in ONE Screen / One Click ?

Reality Check: Tally requires manual reconciliation per location. No automated matching across entities.

What You’re Losing:

  • 15-20 hours/month of your finance team’s time
  • Delayed fraud detection (average 45-60 days in manual systems)
  • Unidentified duplicate payments or banking errors

3. Automatic Consolidated P&L

Question: Can you generate a joint Profit & Loss statement for ALL plants/entities instantly?

Reality Check: Tally requires manual Excel consolidation. Each plant’s P&L is separate. Inter-company transactions require manual elimination.

What You’re Losing:

  • Real-time visibility into which plants are truly profitable
  • Inability to make quick course corrections (by the time you see the P&L, it’s month-end)
  • Board/Investor reporting delays of 5-7 days

4. Automatic Consolidated Balance Sheet

Question: Can you see your group’s total assets, liabilities, and equity in ONE Balance Sheet?

Reality Check: Manual consolidation required. Inter-company receivables/payables don’t auto-eliminate.

What You’re Losing:

  • Inaccurate working capital picture
  • Delayed loan covenant compliance reporting
  • Inability to optimize group-level debt structure

5. Joint GST Payable Across All GSTINs

Question: Can you see total GST liability across all 8-10 GSTINs in ONE view?

Reality Check: Each GSTIN files separately. No consolidated GST dashboard. Manual Excel work to see group-level GST exposure.

What You’re Losing:

  • Inability to optimize Input Tax Credit (ITC) across entities
  • Missed opportunities for GST planning (₹ X Lakhs annually)
  • Compliance risks from manual consolidation errors

6. Inter-Company Transaction Elimination

Question: When Plant A sells to Plant B, does your system automatically eliminate this in consolidation?

Reality Check: Manual identification and elimination required. High risk of double-counting revenue. ( Important )

What You’re Losing:

  • Inflated revenue figures (misleading stakeholders)
  • Incorrect tax calculations
  • Audit findings and compliance issues

Section 2: Multi-Plant Inventory & MRP (Points 7-12)

7. Multi-Plant MRP (Material Requirement Planning)

Question: Does your system tell you: “Plant A has 500 units excess, Plant B needs 300 units—transfer instead of purchasing”?

Reality Check: Tally has NO MRP functionality. Each plant plans independently. No visibility into excess/shortage across locations.

What You’re Losing:

  • ₹5-10 crore annually in unnecessary purchases (while excess stock sits idle elsewhere)
  • 15-20% higher inventory carrying costs
  • Stockouts in one plant while another has 6 months of excess

8. Multi-Plant Stock Comparison (Quantity View)

Question: Can you see the same raw material’s stock quantity across all plants in ONE screen?

Reality Check: Each plant’s stock is separate. No cross-plant visibility without manual Excel work.

What You’re Losing:

  • Inability to optimize procurement (bulk buying across plants)
  • Emergency purchases at premium prices (while other plants have stock)
  • 10-15% higher inventory costs

9. Multi-Plant Purchase Rate Comparison

Question: Can you see what price each plant is paying for the same item from the same supplier?

Reality Check: No cross-plant purchase rate comparison. Plant A may pay ₹100/unit while Plant B pays ₹115/unit from the same supplier.

What You’re Losing:

  • ₹3-5 crore annually in price arbitrage (on ₹500 crore purchases, 5-10 plants paying different rates)
  • No leverage in supplier negotiations
  • Rogue purchases outside approved vendor lists

10. Non-Moving Stock Identification Across Plants

Question: Can you identify slow/non-moving stock across ALL plants and redirect it before it becomes obsolete?

Reality Check: Each plant manages its own inventory. No group-level visibility into aging stock.

What You’re Losing:

  • ₹2-4 crore annually in inventory write-offs (5-10% of inventory becomes obsolete)
  • Missed opportunities to transfer to plants with demand
  • Working capital trapped in dead stock

11. Inter-Plant Stock Transfer Optimization

Question: Does your system automatically suggest: “Transfer 200 units from Plant A to Plant C—saves ₹5 lakh in new purchases”?

Reality Check: Manual identification required. No automated transfer recommendations.

What You’re Losing:

  • Unnecessary freight costs (purchasing locally while excess sits elsewhere)
  • Higher working capital requirements
  • 8-12% higher inventory costs

12. Real-Time Stock Visibility Across All Locations

Question: Can you see total group inventory (raw material, WIP, finished goods) in real-time?

Reality Check: Tally shows stock per location only. Consolidation requires manual Excel work (always 2-3 days old).

What You’re Losing:

  • Inability to commit to large orders (don’t know total available stock)
  • Over-promising to customers (stockouts damage reputation)
  • Excess safety stock (₹5-8 crore trapped unnecessarily)

Section 3: Financial Control & Compliance (Points 13-16)

13. Automated Financial Consolidation for Board Reporting

Question: Can you generate board-ready consolidated financials in 1 day (not 7-10 days)?

Reality Check: Manual Excel consolidation. Inter-company eliminations done manually. Version control issues.

What You’re Losing:

  • Delayed strategic decisions (by the time you see numbers, situation has changed)
  • Board frustration (investors expect T+3 day reporting)
  • Finance team burnout (month-end closes take 10-12 days)

14. Multi-GSTIN Data and Dashboard

Question: Can your make GST returns for all plants in 1 go… automatically… even if you have 3 plants in same state ( Example Nashik, Pune and Thane… all in Maharashtra )… or ( Gurgaon, Manesar and Sonepat, all in Haryana ) ?

Reality Check: Each “tally company” Data is taken separately.


15. Automated Cost Center-wise Profitability

Question: Can you see profitability by product line, customer, region, AND plant simultaneously?

Reality Check: Tally’s cost centers are limited. Multi-dimensional profitability analysis requires manual Excel work. .. Finsys can make BOM BASED and even time based cost sheets for each product you manufacture.

What You’re Losing:

  • Inability to kill unprofitable products/customers (₹5-10 crore in hidden losses)
  • Misallocation of resources to low-margin segments
  • No data-driven pricing decisions

16. Cash Flow Forecasting Across All Entities

Question: Can you see consolidated cash position and 90-day cash flow forecast for the entire group?

Reality Check: Each location maintains separate cash flow. No automated consolidation. Forecasts are Excel-based and outdated.

What You’re Losing:

  • Emergency borrowing at high interest (₹2-3 crore annually in extra interest)
  • Missed investment opportunities (cash sitting idle in one entity while another borrows)
  • Inability to negotiate better banking terms (no consolidated cash visibility)

Section 4: Operational Efficiency & Decision-Making (Points 17-20)

  • Finsys has Strong Gate Entry System … Goods do not Cross Gate … no Purchase entry in Finsys for “goods”.
  • Strong PO Controls System … Goods Come without PO … no Purchase entry in Finsys for “goods” ~ PV Passing Locked
  • Strong Quality Controls System … Goods Fail in QC … Automatic … no Purchase entry in Finsys for “goods” ~ PV Passing Locked
  • Strong Goods in Transit System …Automatic alert of pendency

17. Real-Time Dashboards for CXO-Level Decisions

Question: Can you see revenue, margins, inventory, receivables, and payables in real-time on your phone?

Reality Check: Tally is desktop-based. No mobile dashboards. Data is always 1-2 days old.

What You’re Losing:

  • Reactive decision-making (not proactive)
  • Inability to course-correct mid-month
  • Dependency on finance team for basic reports

18. Automated Exception Reporting

Question: Does your system alert you: “Plant B’s margin dropped 5% this week” or “Customer X’s payment is 15 days overdue”?

Reality Check: No automated alerts. You discover issues in monthly reviews (too late to act).

What You’re Losing:

  • Margin erosion (5% drop = ₹2.5 crore on ₹500 crore revenue)
  • Bad debt accumulation (₹1-2 crore annually)
  • Operational inefficiencies going unnoticed for weeks

19. Integration with Other Business Systems

Question: Is your accounting software integrated with CRM, e-commerce, manufacturing, and logistics systems?

Reality Check: Tally has limited APIs. Manual data entry from other systems. Data silos across departments. Finsys has all these things in its own relevant modules

What You’re Losing:

  • 20-30 hours/week in manual data entry (₹15-20 lakh annually in labor costs)
  • Data errors from manual entry (2-5% error rate = ₹1-2 crore in corrections)
  • Inability to automate order-to-cash cycle

20. Scalability for Future Growth

Question: Can your current system handle: 12 plants, 8 GSTINs, 100+ users, Detailed Production and PPC and WIP ?

Reality Check: Tally struggles beyond 10-15 users. Performance degrades with large data.

What You’re Losing:

  • System crashes during critical periods (month-end, year-end)
  • Inability to acquire/merge new businesses (IT integration nightmare)
  • Technology debt (₹50 lakh-₹1 crore to migrate later)

💰 The Real Cost of Inaction

Area Annual Loss 5-Year Impact
Suboptimal procurement (no consolidated buying) ₹10-15 crore ₹50-75 crore
Excess inventory (no multi-plant MRP) ₹5-10 crore ₹25-50 crore
Price arbitrage (different plants, different rates) ₹3-5 crore ₹15-25 crore
Inventory write-offs (no aging visibility) ₹2-4 crore ₹10-20 crore
Margin erosion (no real-time alerts) ₹2-3 crore ₹10-15 crore
Manual labor (data entry, consolidation) ₹50 lakh-₹1 crore ₹2.5-5 crore
TOTAL ₹22-38 crore ₹110-190 crore

You’re losing ₹22-38 crore EVERY YEAR by using accounting software designed for ₹10 crore businesses. ( Figures look exaggerated.. but could be really true for a large Rs 500 Crore company )

SOP: How to book Vehicle Repair and Service Expenses in Finsys ERP

SOP: Booking Vehicle Repair and Service Expenses in Finsys ERP

1. Purpose

This SOP explains the recommended method for recording vehicle-related repair and maintenance services—such as truck tyre alignment, wheel balancing, puncture repair, or similar garage services—in the Finsys ERP system.

Use this procedure when the bill is for a service only and no stock is received. Example Service of your Car, your Truck, your tempo.

2. Scope

This procedure applies to vehicle repair and maintenance services where:

– The expense relates to a company-owned, leased, or operational vehicle.
– No material or stock item is being received into the stores.
– Price history and inventory tracking are not required.
– The transaction does not require a Purchase Order, Material Receipt Report, or Quality Control inspection.
– GST is not charged or is not applicable, based on the supporting bill and the applicable tax position.

Examples include:

– Truck tyre alignment.
– Wheel balancing.
– Vehicle servicing.
– Minor vehicle repairs.
– Puncture repair.
– Emergency breakdown services.
– Garage inspection or adjustment services.

3. Important GST Clarification

A vehicle repair activity should be treated as a **service transaction**, not as a stock purchase.

The absence of GST should not be determined merely by looking for a “0% HSN code.” HSN codes generally relate to goods, while services are classified using the appropriate service classification. The GST treatment should be based on the nature of the service, the supplier’s invoice, the supplier’s registration status, and the applicable tax provisions.

Before booking the transaction, the user should verify:

– Whether GST has been charged on the supplier’s bill.
– Whether the supplier is registered under GST.
– Whether the service is taxable, exempt, non-taxable, or otherwise not liable to GST.
– Whether the transaction requires any reverse-charge or other tax treatment.

The Finsys entry should reflect the actual tax position supported by the bill and the client’s approved accounting policy.

4. Recommended Finsys ERP Transaction

Where there is no requirement for purchase, stores, or quality control processing, the transaction should be entered directly through a **Service Voucher**.

The transaction should not normally be entered through:

– Purchase Order.
– Material Receipt Report.
– Stock receipt.
– Quality Control process.
– Inventory inward entry.

This approach ensures that a service expense is recorded directly in the appropriate expense ledger without affecting stock balances or material price history.

5. Suggested Accounting Entry

The normal accounting entry may be recorded as follows:

“`text
Vehicle Repair and Maintenance Expense A/c Dr.
To Vendor A/c / Staff Imprest A/c
“`

For a direct payment from an approved imprest or petty cash account:

“`text
Vehicle Repair and Maintenance Expense A/c Dr.
To Imprest Account A/c
“`

The exact ledger used should depend on how the payment was made and how the client maintains its vendor and imprest accounting system.

Recommended Expense Ledger

A suitable ledger may be created as:

– Vehicle Repair and Maintenance Expense.
– Repair and Maintenance—Vehicles.
– Truck Repair and Service Charges.
– Vehicle Operating Expenses.

or you can use any other expense ledger that you and your company have been using for such expenditure in the past

The client should use a consistent ledger structure across all vehicle-related service expenses.

Recommended Voucher Type

If there is no PO ( usually, not required in such cases.. then use 5A type voucher ) in Finsys.

6. Payment and Imprest Control

Where the expense exceeds the permissible cash-payment limit under applicable tax law or the client’s internal financial policy, it should not be settled directly through cash.

The transaction should instead be routed through one of the following:

– The registered or approved vendor account.
– An employee’s approved imprest account.
– A bank payment.
– An approved company payment process.

If an employee has paid the amount personally or through an imprest account, the Service Voucher should be posted to the relevant employee’s account or imprest account. The supporting bill should be attached to the voucher and the reimbursement or settlement should be processed separately.

> The cash-payment limit and related tax implications should be reviewed with reference to the applicable law and the client’s accounting policy. Any statutory exceptions should also be considered where relevant.

7. Information Required for the Service Voucher

The following information should be entered in the Service Voucher:

– Voucher date.
– Vendor or employee/imprest account.
– Vehicle number or asset number.
– Nature of service, such as “Truck tyre alignment.”
– Client, project, plant, branch, , where applicable.
– Expense ledger.
– Amount as per the supplier’s bill.
– GST amount, if charged.
– TDS treatment, where applicable.
– Payment mode or settlement reference.
– Supporting invoice or cash memo.
– Approval of the responsible department or manager.

Suggested Narration

“`text
Being charges for truck tyre alignment service for vehicle number __________,
as per garage bill number __________ dated __________.
“`

8. Purchase and Inventory Requirements

For a pure service transaction of this nature:

| Requirement | Normally required? |
|—|—:|
| Purchase Order | No |
| Material Receipt Report | No |
| Quality Control inspection | No |
| Stock receipt | No |
| Stock-in-hand update | No |
| Material price history | No |
| Service Voucher | Yes |
| Supporting bill | Yes |
| Approval | Yes |

If the garage supplies separate physical goods—such as tyres, batteries, spare parts, or other identifiable materials—the transaction should be reviewed separately. In such cases, the goods portion may require a purchase or inventory transaction, while the labour or service portion may continue to be recorded through a Service Voucher.

9. GST Treatment in Finsys

The GST section of the Service Voucher should be completed based on the actual supplier bill and the applicable tax treatment.

Where GST is charged

– Record the taxable value and GST separately.
– Use the appropriate service classification.
– Record eligible input tax credit only after verifying the relevant conditions.
– Maintain the supplier’s GST details and tax invoice, where required.

and Pass the voucher, via the supplier account

 

Where GST is not charged

– Do not artificially apply a 0% HSN merely to complete the transaction.
– Record the transaction as a service without GST only where such treatment is supported by the supplier’s bill and applicable tax position.
– Mention the reason in the voucher narration or remarks, where appropriate.
– Retain the supplier’s bill as supporting documentation.

10. TDS Review / TDS Action points

TDS should not be marked as automatically applicable or automatically exempt merely because the transaction is entered as a Service Voucher.

The user should consider:

– Whether the garage is a regular supplier.
– Whether the arrangement is contractual or recurring.
– The nature of the service.
– The applicable TDS section and threshold.
– The aggregate value of payments during the relevant period.
– Whether the supplier has provided the required tax details.
– Whether any specific exemption or exception applies.

For an isolated, small-value repair service, TDS may not be required in many cases. However, repeated payments to the same supplier should be reviewed periodically, as the tax treatment may differ depending on the nature and volume of the transactions.

11. Approval and Documentation Controls

The following controls should be followed:

1. Verify that the service was actually received.
2. Check the vehicle number and service description.
3. Confirm that the bill is genuine and legible.
4. Ensure that the bill is not duplicated.
5. Confirm the GST treatment from the bill.
6. Review TDS applicability where relevant.
7. Obtain approval from the responsible manager or department.
8. Attach the bill to the Service Voucher.
9. Select the correct vendor, employee, or imprest account.
10. Ensure that the expense is allocated to the correct branch, project, cost centre, or client.

12. Finsys ERP Configuration Recommendation

as above

13. Practical Example

A garage provides a bill for truck tyre alignment for ₹12,500. No material is received, no GST is charged on the bill, and payment is made through the driver’s approved imprest account.

The transaction may be recorded as:

“`text
Vehicle Repair and Maintenance Expense A/c Dr. ₹12,500
To Driver/Employee Imprest A/c ₹12,500
“`

The Service Voucher should include the vehicle number, garage bill details, service description, approval, and a scanned copy of the bill.

14. Summary   / Plan for future

For vehicle repair and maintenance services where there is no stock movement and no requirement for purchase, receipt, or quality control processing:

> **Record the transaction directly through a Service Voucher, debit the appropriate vehicle repair expense ledger, and credit the vendor or approved imprest account.**

GST and TDS should be reviewed separately based on the actual transaction, supplier details, supporting bill, applicable law, and the client’s approved accounting policy.

Thermal insulation manufacturer at Pune Maharashtra selects Finsys ERP

Finsys New Order. News

Leading Thermal & Reflective Insulation Manufacturer in Pune, Maharashtra

Partners with Finsys ERP for All-India Digital Transformation

Automating end-to-end operations—from polymer raw material purchase and roll-wise shop floor execution to quality testing, multi-warehouse inventory, and nationwide dispatch logistics.

Published by: Finsys Infotech Limited | Category: Recent News & Customer Milestones

New Order Milestone: Specialised Thermal Insulation ERP Implementation

Finsys ERP has been selected by a forward-thinking, high-capacity thermal insulation manufacturer based out of Pune, Maharashtra. Operating a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility and catering to an All-India distribution network, the company specializes in advanced thermal insulation sheets, air bubble reflective insulation, EPE foam products, and under-deck roofing insulation solutions.

1. Client Profile & Industry Dynamics

The client is a pioneer in manufacturing high-performance energy-saving thermal insulation materials designed for Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEBs), industrial roofing, HVAC ducting, power plants, commercial warehouses, and residential infrastructure across India.

With product lines ranging from multi-layer air bubble insulation rolls, radiant barrier sheets, and aluminium foil laminated under-deck insulation to specialized polyethylene foam products, the company handles complex manufacturing variables such as thickness (micron/mm), density, bubble height, lamination adhesion, and roll length variations.

To support their rapid national expansion and supply commitments across North, South, East, and West India, the company’s management made the strategic decision to replace fragmented software with Finsys ERP—an integrated, Oracle-powered manufacturing ERP system designed for Indian enterprise environments.

2. Operational Challenges Solved by Finsys ERP

Manufacturing thermal insulation products involves continuous extrusion, lamination, slitting, and custom size conversion. Prior to implementing Finsys ERP, managing multi-stage operations and All-India supply logistics presented distinct operational challenges:

  • Raw Material Cost Fluctuation & Polymer BOMs: Polymer resins (LDPE/LLDPE), masterbatches, and aluminium foil prices fluctuate dynamically. Tracking accurate Bill of Materials (BOM) costing at current RM rates was essential.
  • Roll-Wise Tracking & Batch Yield: Managing inventory in rolls and sheets while maintaining real-time tracking of scrap, trimming wastage, and edge-cut recycling.
  • Multi-Parameter Quality Control: Testing and logging parameters like GSM, thickness, thermal conductivity (K-value), burst strength, and peel strength during production.
  • All-India Logistics & Dispatch Control: Managing large volumetric roll dimensions during transport, optimizing freight charges, generating E-Way Bills, and ensuring zero dispatch errors across multi-state shipping destinations.
  • GST & E-Invoicing Compliance: Handling complex multi-location invoicing, TDS, TCS, and automated GST return generation directly from the core ERP platform.

3. Modules & Solutions Integrated in Finsys ERP

The Pune manufacturing plant is adopting the complete gate-to-gate Finsys Manufacturing ERP Suite operating on a robust Oracle database:

A. CRM, Estimation & Sales Order Management

Automated quotation matrix based on roll width, length, foil lamination type, and sq. meter calculations. Direct integration of sales orders with approved customer specifications.

B. Material Requirement Planning (MRP) & Stores

Real-time inventory visibility of polymer granules, foils, bonding adhesives, and packaging film. Minimum re-order level alerts to prevent production halts.

C. Production Planning & Control (PPC)

Extrusion line loading, lamination line scheduling, slitting planning, and real-time shop floor data capture (MES style) for downtime and output analysis.

D. Barcode-Enabled Dispatch & Logistics

100% barcode scanning from production output to final dispatch loading, eliminating dispatch mix-ups for nationwide freight shipments.

E. Quality Assurance (QA / QC)

In-line inspection logs for micron consistency, bubble integrity, and thermal efficiency with integrated Quality Approval certificates for B2B dispatches.

F. Financials, GST & Executive Mobile App

Native Indian GST compliance, E-Invoicing, automatic TDS mapping, and real-time executive mobile dashboards on iOS & Android for C-suite decision making.

Leadership Perspective

“Thermal insulation manufacturing is an industry where precision in thickness, density, and material efficiency dictates profit margins. By deploying Finsys ERP at their Pune plant, the client gains complete visibility over material consumption, shop-floor production, and All-India dispatches on a unified Oracle platform.”

— Sangeet Kumar Gupta & Puneet Gupta, Co-Founders, Finsys Infotech Limited

As we transition into the first month of the Income Tax Act, 2025, several businesses have raised concerns about the structural overhaul of TDS sections. At MLGA, we believe in combining legal theory with practical technical reality.

Following our consultation with the technical leadership at Webtel Electrosoft, we are pleased to clarify that while the “Section Numbers” have changed, your “Single Challan” convenience remains intact.

As we enter the first reporting month under the Income Tax Act, 2025, there has been significant debate regarding the “Single Challan” system for different types of TDS. Based on our technical consultation with Mr. Vijay Sahni (Director & Technical Head, Webtel Electrosoft Pvt Ltd)—the makers of India’s most widely used TDS software—we are pleased to provide this clarification to ensure your compliance remains seamless.  ( Ref. : https://webtel.in/Meet-Management )


1. The Move to “Parent Sections”

The Income Tax Act, 2025 has simplified 60+ legacy sections into three umbrella sections. This is the new legal map for your monthly deductions:

  • Section 392: TDS on Salaries (Replacing the old Sec 192).

     

  • Section 393: TDS on ALL Non-Salary payments (Consolidating old 194C, 194J, 194I, etc.).

     

  • Section 394: Tax Collected at Source (TCS) (Replacing Sec 206C).

2. Can I still use a Single Challan for multiple codes ?

Yes. Based on the latest FVU 9.4 and Webtel software logic, deductors can continue to deposit a consolidated tax amount (e.g., ₹10 Lakhs) in one go.

While the new Act technically categorizes payments into 92 Numeric Codes (1001–1092), the e-filing portal and TRACES utility allow you to map one large challan to multiple codes during the filing of your Quarterly Return (New Form 140).

The most critical concern for accounts teams was whether a single payment (e.g., ₹10 Lakhs) could still cover multiple TDS categories.

The Verdict: As confirmed by Webtel’s technical leadership, the Single-Challan logic will continue. * Even though the Act uses a new numeric taxonomy (Codes 1001–1092), the Government’s e-filing utility (FVU) still allows you to deposit a lump sum under a single major head.

  • Mapping: You can continue to pay one consolidated amount. The “bifurcation” or “mapping” to specific categories (like 1023 for Contractors or 1003 for Professionals) will happen at the time of filing your Quarterly Return (New Form 140). That is a part of the Software work… during E Filing.. and not yours in “Payment”

3. Example of New Codes… within Section 393

For Academic Purposes : Section 393 TDS codes are the new numeric payment codes used under the Income-tax Act, 2025 for TDS return filing. Based on the available published tables, the complete code range runs from 1001 to 1067, with 1001–1038 covering resident/other domestic categories, 1039–1057 covering non-residents, and 1058–1067 covering “any person” payments. Some of the popular one’s are :

Nature of Payment Legacy Section New Act 2025 Code
Professional & Technical Fees : Same 10% or 2% 194J 1003
Contractors / Sub-Contractors : Same 1% and 2% 194C 1002
Rent (Land & Building) same 2% and 10% 194I(b) 1009
Commission & Brokerage 194H 1007
Interest (Other than Bank) 194A 1005

4. Practical work in Finsys ERP / Tally / your Accounting Software

for Day to Day Accounting, the Ledger Accounts remain the same. Usually they are

TDS Payable- Salary

TDS Payable- Contractor

TDS Payable- Professional

TDS Payable- Rent

TDS Payable- Interest

TDS Payable- Commission and so on

There is no change in the names of the sections.

Accounting will also continue as it is, as it was.

Accrual on each Purchase voucher / Service Voucher : As it is.

Ledger Account in Trial balance : As it is.

5. Payment of TDS “online to Govt”

As since 2012 CBDT Notification, you can continue single Payment of all TDS sections in single Challan. Keep that in TDS Control Account / Buffer Account. At time of each monthly closing / Quarterly Closing.. Transfer all the payables to the TDS Control account / Buffer Account.

Exactly same as in past years

6. Filing of TDS Return

Use Webtel E TDS Filing Software. Helps you in Smoother compliance work. https://webtel.in/tds-filing-software ). Softwares like Finsys ERP, give excel output for ease in filing the TDS returns using Webtel.

Webtel has done the internal programming for the Required Automation. Its Robust Planning allows it to use the Consolidated TDS Challan amongst Various sections. No worries.

Exactly same as in past years.

7. Any need of deposting TDS for Corporate and Non Corporates separately ?

No. This is Automatically done at the TDS return filing stage.

You can deposit in 1 go,

The TDS return filing software automatically divides the challan to various vendors, various sections, and govt gets its data automatically

8. Action Items for your Accounts Team

Do Not Mix Salary & Non-Salary Challan Amount …: While you can mix multiple non-salary codes in one challan, Salary (Sec 392) must always be paid via a separate challan, as it is reported in a different return (Form 138).

Webtel Updation : Ensure your Webtel software is updated to the FY 2026-27 (Tax Year 2026-27) This version is pre-configured to handle the mapping of your single challan to the 92 new numeric codes.

Webtel Adoption : If your TDS Software Still does not allow this facility to you… upgrade to Webtel.  https://webtel.in/tds-filing-software 

Form 168 Reconciliation: From this month onwards, tell your vendors to check Form 168 (which replaces the old Form 26AS). Their tax credits will now appear under these 4-digit numeric codes.

Final Word

The move to the Income Tax Act, 2025 is a structural shift, not a procedural hurdle. By maintaining the “Single Challan” approach suggested by Webtel, your business can avoid the administrative burden of generating dozens of small payments.

Webtel, Finsys and MLG Team are here to assist with your first “Form 140” filing under the new regime. Please contact your relationship manager for any specific queries.

Corrugation Special in July issue of PrintWeek Finsys

Finsys ERP is proud to be associated with Printweek

Corrugation Special in July issue of PrintWeek : Finsys

The July 2026 issue of PrintWeek takes a peek into the eight-million MT corrugation market in India.

The July 2026 issue of PrintWeek focuses on the corrugation industry


Writing the editorial for the Corrugation Special, which is the highlight of the issue, Rahul Kumar of PrintWeek writes, “India is witnessing unprecedented demand for corrugated packaging. Every online order, pharmaceutical shipment, fresh produce consignment, industrial component, or consumer electronics product requires reliable and sustainable packaging. Government initiatives such as Make in India, Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes, rising exports, and improved logistics infrastructure are further accelerating the demand for high-performance corrugated packaging. Unlike mature markets, India still has significant headroom for growth. As manufacturing expands and organised retail penetrates deeper into tier-II and tier-III cities, corrugated packaging consumption is expected to rise steadily. The future of the industry is being driven by multiple high-growth industries simultaneously.”

A sector that spent decades in the shadows of small-scale reservation is now navigating the turbulence of overcapacity, Chinese dominance, and thin margins. Yet pockets of manufacturing are quietly redefining what is possible. Manish Patel of SIPM shares his expert opinion in The Big Read section.

To the insider, the corrugated packaging landscape reveals a complex architecture, a sector in the midst of a profound structural transformation, writes Pankaj Shah of Supack International.

Rahul Kumar visits Lucknow-based Amber Packagers, where managing director Wafa Abbas explains why automation, quality and disciplined investment are shaping the company’s next phase of growth.

Volatility in kraft paper prices is a challenge. It has a direct impact on manufacturing costs and profitability, say Anantha Shayana and Pramod Shayana of Best Corrugators, in an interview with Rahul Kumar

At Corrucase, the goal is to become a packaging partner rather than just a packaging converter, says Ayush Khetan, director, Corrucase, in an interview with Rahul Kumar.

Timely maintenance of all machines and keeping them in top-notch working condition is necessary to improve the efficiency of the production process, Navin Kumar Motani of Vaishali, Hajipur-based Excel Paper Packaging, tells Rahul Kumar.

To build a globally competitive, future-ready corrugated packaging plant today, your capital allocation must shift away from traditional metrics and focus on agility, intelligence, and circular compliance, Pradeep Arya of Kamrup Packaging Udyog, tells Rahul Kumar

Arundas CH, managing director, Kapstone Industries, tells Rahul Kumar how the company is gradually adopting digital data collection and performance monitoring, enabling better decision-making through real-time production insights.

Meerut-based Vandana Packaging’s investment philosophy is simple. It invests in technology that will continue delivering value even after ten or fifteen years, Ashish Goel, director, Vandana Packaging, tells Rahul Kumar.

The future of corrugation lies in automation, advanced screening, AI-driven workflows and high-performance plate technologies, say Raghav Madan and Sudhir Arora, managing partners at Alpha Flex, in a conversation with Rahul Kumar.

The future belongs to converters who adopt a holistic approach towards print quality. High-quality corrugated printing is no longer determined by the printing plate alone; it is the result of optimising the entire print ecosystem, says Muralidhar Nalli, CEO, Digiflex, a flexographic pre-press solutions provider, in a conversation with Rahul Kumar.

Making sure your existing presses are perfectly calibrated — with consistent target densities and clear dot gain curves — allows your pre-press partner to engineer plates that work flawlessly on the first pass, cutting out costly adjustments on the floor, says Kaveri Satija of Devi Graphics, in an interview with Rahul Kumar.

Digital workflow improves quality and automation and avoids mistakes, which happens with manual interference, says S Giridharan, executive director, Kapoor Imaging, in an interview with Rahul Kumar.

By implementing standardised plate-making procedures, colour management practices, and press optimisation techniques, converters can significantly improve quality consistency while reducing waste and downtime, says Prasenjit Das, general manager, XSYS South Asia, in an interview with Rahul Kumar.

After decades of investing in faster machines, India’s corrugated box industry is turning its attention to something less visible but equally important: information. Sangeet Gupta and Puneet Guptaof Faridabad-based Finsys ERP Software, explain why operational discipline is becoming the sector’s most valuable asset. 

ERP is a strategic investment, not an expense, Manish Madhusudan, co-founder, Renuka Softtec, tells Rahul Kumar.

Vivek Mukherjee, manager marketing, Samadhan, explains how Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central connects finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, warehousing, manufacturing, and customer service into a single platform, and how Samadhan brings corrugation expertise and industry best practices.

In corrugation business you can address up to a distance of 300-km or sometimes even less, and just-in-time delivery is the essence of the game, says Venugopal Menon of Bobst in a conversation with Rahul Kumar.

Bijendra Sharma, managing director, BHS Corrugated India, shares his views on industry growth, automation, AI, sustainability, customer profitability, and why India’s corrugators must focus on technology and process excellence to remain competitive, in an interaction with Rahul Kumar.

As packaging manufacturers face increasing pressure to improve productivity, advanced machinery and process optimisation have become critical. Veena Ajay, business development head, Boxtech Bengaluru, shares her insights.

The most sustainable manufacturing process is one that minimises waste, optimises resource utilisation, and maximises output quality, say Chandrashekhar Dhote and Kapil Dev, directors, Druckncut India in an interview with Rahul Kumar.

In this exclusive writeup, Chiranjeevi Sastry, sales director, Emba Machinery, shares a first-hand experience on the evolution of the Indian corrugation industry.

The future is a PLC-controlled, sensor-driven machine that takes a design file and prints it with zero manual setup, says Riddhi Shah of Printpack Engineers. She tells Rahul Kumar that, “In our experience, the cheapest option is rarely the most economical one. A supplier who’s honest about what a price can deliver is worth more than one who agrees to everything”.

Digital cutting tables minimise production errors, reduce rework, and lower material consumption, Puranjit Sarangi of TechNova Imaging Systems, tells Rahul Kumar.

Digital cutting tables have enabled economical short-run productions and rapid prototyping, says Prasanna Venkatesh of Zund India, in an interview with Rahul Kumar.

Corrugators need to focus on the long-term return on investment and the actual running costs rather than just the initial price tag, says Kunal Gandhi of CGSASP, in an interview with Rahul Kumar.

For short-run production of packaging solutions, digital cutting tables can facilitate the requirement, Brijesh Puri, founder, Packnology tells Rahul Kumar.

Anupam Agarwal of Amity Paper & Board says the fundamental question facing the industry is whether it can transition from a volume-driven business to a value-driven ecosystem focused on performance, innovation, sustainability, and global competitiveness. The answer to this question will determine the future trajectory of the Indian corrugation industry.

The brown box, the workhorse of the global supply chain, is at a breaking point in India, and battle lines are drawn between old-guard manufacturers, nimble innovators, and a flood of Chinese kit. Prabhat Prakash writes.

In other features, KS Ramesh of Redington in conversation during a visit to the new and upgraded Redington Centre of Excellence for Digital Printing Solutions in Chennai, explains how the centre is being used to develop applications, train operators, support print businesses and help brands to package their products.

These and other regular features in the July 2026 issue of PrintWeek.
