Bhavnagar’s ship-breaking, re-rolling and diamond trades buy and sell by weight.
Bhavnagar’s trades include ship recycling at Alang, re-rolling mills at Sihor, and diamond units and salt works in and around the city. Buying and selling are by weight, tracked in Tally, weighbridge slips and notebooks, so the figures pass through several hands. GullySystem provides lot, weighment and stock software for these trades, delivered remotely from Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. Each ship is treated as one lot.
At Alang, a whole ship is bought, beached and broken into steel plates, machinery, fittings and furniture. Everything is weighed. Plates go to re-rolling mills around Sihor and Bhavnagar, and other items are sold through salvage shops along the Alang road. Each sale needs a link back to its ship.
The city also has diamond cutting units, salt works along the Gulf of Khambhat coast, and engineering units in its GIDC estate. Nearly every deal is weighed. Each weighment is a record. It has to reach the bill and the stock register without being retyped along the way.
The areas, estates and markets that matter in Bhavnagar.
How Bhavnagar businesses pick and use software.
Bhavnagar owners work with cash, weight and trust, and want software that is quick at the weighbridge. Any change that makes the books look different from what the CA expects is reviewed first, before the new system goes live.
Many firms here are run by the owner and one accountant. Software is often chosen after seeing it in use at a known party’s yard, and a trial on the firm’s own weighbridge slips is a common request.
Where Bhavnagar businesses lose time and money.
The profit on a whole ship is not visible
Sales from one ship are spread across many bills over several months, so the total cannot be read from the ledger. Lot costing by ship sets the purchase price against every sale made from it.
Weighbridge slips and invoices do not match
A slip carries the weight, and the bill is typed from it hours later. Reading the weight straight into the bill removes the gap. One entry, one figure.
Salvage items are sold before anyone enters them
Buyers pick items straight off the floor, and stock is not recorded. Tagging items as they arrive shows what is sold. It also shows what is still in the shop.

Can the weighbridge reading go straight into the software?
It depends on the weighbridge. Most electronic models send their reading to a computer, and the software captures it directly into the weighment and the bill, without anyone typing the figure a second time. This is tested on the actual weighbridge first.
Can profit be seen for each ship bought?
Yes. Each ship is set up as a lot with its purchase cost, and every sale and expense is recorded against it. The ship-wise profit report updates as the plot is cleared.
What happens after I share my requirements?
An engineer reads what you send and replies within one business day. We then look at the software, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups your business runs on today and write down what works, what slows your team down and what is missing. A demo login, a screen-share or a few screenshots are enough. You get a short written summary ordered by priority, with no obligation to hire us afterwards.
How much will the software cost?
We don’t publish a price, because it depends on what the system has to do. That first review settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
