Casting weights, patterns and credit records for Howrah’s foundries and garment sellers.
Howrah’s foundries and machine shops on Belilious Road and in Dasnagar, and the garment sellers of Mangla Haat, keep pattern, weight and credit records in registers, Tally and phones. GullySystem, based in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, builds job work, casting, garment and billing software for them. Work is remote.
Small engineering workshops line Belilious Road and the lanes of Dasnagar, Shibpur and Liluah, and they cast, machine and assemble parts for pumps, railway equipment and agricultural machinery. Much of it is job work for larger firms.
Along the Hooghly, jute mills operate at Bally and Belur. Mangla Haat near Howrah station sells ready-made garments to traders from across the region, and the Uluberia and Ankurhati side holds newer warehouses and industrial units.

How Howrah businesses pick and use software.
Many Howrah workshops are run by families across generations, with the senior member deciding. A new system is expected to price a casting as before, by weight, pattern and metal. Testing it on an old order is a reasonable first step.
Garment makers at Mangla Haat already take orders on WhatsApp, and they look for a catalogue that shows a buyer the range and records his credit. Conversations with them usually begin with the notebook they use today.
Where Howrah businesses lose time and money.
Casting weights are entered after the weighing
Foundries weigh each casting for billing, and the register by the furnace is typed into Tally later. A short or missing entry can become a dispute with the buyer.
Customer patterns are hard to locate
Buyers leave their patterns with the foundry, and without a pattern register tied to each customer, patterns can be misplaced or used for another order. A register records where each one is.
Haat buyers take goods on credit and return part
Garment makers at Mangla Haat give credit to traders from other districts, and returns and part-payments are noted in notebooks. The running balance for each trader is unclear.

Can software price castings by weight, metal and pattern the way Howrah foundries do?
Yes. Rates are set per customer, metal and pattern, and the weight at dispatch produces the invoice. Rejections and returns adjust against the same record.
Can a Mangla Haat garment maker share a catalogue and take orders on WhatsApp?
Yes. A catalogue and order app sends orders and confirmations over WhatsApp and keeps each trader’s credit and returns. Outstanding balances can be viewed without opening a notebook.
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.
