Ichalkaranji weaves on job work, and every beam, yarn lot and metre of grey cloth needs a ledger.
Ichalkaranji’s powerloom owners, sizing units, yarn traders and grey-cloth merchants run on job work, tracked in notebooks, Tally and WhatsApp. GullySystem builds job-work, yarn and wage ledgers for this trade from Bengaluru, starting with a free technology audit of how your loom shed and office keep records today. Yarn goes out, beams come back, and cloth is paid by the metre.
In Ichalkaranji, yarn bought from traders goes to a sizing unit and comes back as beams. It is then woven on powerlooms and newer shuttleless looms, often on job work for a master weaver or trader. The grey cloth then goes to processors and garment makers elsewhere.
Each step has a quantity that should match the next, and the loom owner is paid by the metre or pick. With thousands of small sheds, most of this runs on notebooks, a Tally file and trust.
The areas, estates and markets that matter in Ichalkaranji.
The powerloom sheds
Small owners running a handful of looms each, weaving on job work. Beam received, cloth delivered and wages paid are written in a notebook.
Sizing units
Units that size warp yarn and wind it on beams for loom owners. Yarn in, beams out and the job-work charge are their main records.
The yarn and grey-cloth trade
Traders who supply yarn on credit, buy back grey cloth by quality and length, and send it by truck to processors outside the town. Party ledgers and quality-wise stock decide their margins.
Yadrav and the shuttleless loom units
Larger units, many in the Parvati co-operative industrial estate at Yadrav, running rapier and air-jet looms and processing. Production per shift and loom efficiency matter here as much as the ledger.
How Ichalkaranji businesses pick and use software.
Loom owners here are careful with cost. They buy software only when a clear loss, like yarn going missing or wages taking the whole weekend, is staring at them.
Shed work runs in Marathi, and the person entering data may be the owner’s son after college. The app has to work on a phone, because most sheds do not have a computer.
Where Ichalkaranji businesses lose time and money.
Yarn given for job work never matches the cloth that comes back
Yarn goes to the weaver by weight, cloth returns by metre, and the gap is argued over. A job-work ledger with the agreed conversion shows the shortfall per beam.
Weaver wages take the whole weekend to calculate
Wages depend on metres, picks and quality, written in the shed book. Entering production daily lets the phone calculate the week’s wages.
We don’t know which quality of cloth makes money
Traders sell many qualities to many buyers at different rates and credit terms. A quality-wise sales and cost report shows which ones to push.
Traders still owe us for last season’s lots
Payments come in parts against old bills, and nobody knows which lot is still open. A lot-wise outstanding list settles that before the next delivery.

Can it calculate weaver wages from metres and picks?
Yes. You set the rate by quality, pick count or metre, and the software works out each weaver’s wages from daily production. The week’s wage sheet is ready on the phone for payment.
Does it keep the job-work records our CA needs for GST?
Yes. Every job-work challan, with goods sent and received, is recorded, so your CA has what is needed for the ITC-04 return. Your CA still files it, and the software gives them clean data.
What happens in the free technology audit?
We 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 to start. You get a report ordered by priority, and there is 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. The audit settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
