Business Badhega, Par Accounting Ka Kya?
Surat’s textile traders know one thing for sure—printing technology is evolving faster than the ring road ka traffic during Diwali season. Gone are the days of traditional screen printing; digital printing is the new king. But here’s the catch—while traders are mastering color combinations and fabric quality, many are still stuck managing accounts manually.
And let’s be honest: Nobody likes to waste time on hisaab-kitaab when they could be making the next big deal.
So, if you’re a digital printing trader, here’s your guide to managing operations without tension and confusion!
To price your digital printing right, you first need to understand your expenses:
📌 Material Costs: Fabric, ink, printing consumables, and chemicals.
📌 Machinery Costs: Digital printers depreciate, so factor that in!
📌 Labor Costs: Whether you have machine operators or designers, wages count.
📌 Overheads: Rent, power, maintenance—because machines don’t run on chaas.
📌 Profit Margins: Don’t just copy market rates blindly; ensure your margins cover all costs.
To stay profitable, ensure your pricing covers all these costs plus a solid margin. After all, business chalana hai, charity nahi!
If you’re still tracking inventory on WhatsApp notes, it’s time for an upgrade. A structured inventory system helps avoid fabric losses and unnecessary reprints.
📌 Raw Material Stock: Ink, chemicals, and fabric—track it before it runs out mid-order.
📌 Work-in-Progress (WIP): Orders should never be bhuli gaya in the production pipeline.
📌 Finished Goods Stock: Know what’s ready for dispatch and what’s still pending.
📌 Stock Valuation: Use FIFO (First In, First Out) so that older stock is used first, reducing wastage.
Tripta’s Matrix Item Stock feature ensures you don’t mix up brands, colors, and sizes—because one wrong shade can lead to a sales return!
Nobody likes GST, but it’s an unavoidable part of the game. Here’s what you need to manage:
📌 GST Rates on Digital Printing: If you’re offering job work, it’s 5% or 18%. If you’re selling printed fabric, it’s 5%.
📌 Input Tax Credit (ITC): Claim back the GST paid on ink, machines, and other purchases.
📌 E-Way Bill Requirements: Goods worth more than ₹50,000? You need this to avoid unnecessary panga at checkpoints.
📌 TDS on Job Work: If you print for corporate clients, TDS might be deducted.
Tripta’s e-Way Bill and e-Invoice generation features take care of these automatically—one click and done!
A trader’s worst nightmare? Pending payments and misplaced invoices! With multiple clients, a structured billing system is a must.
📌 B2B vs B2C Invoicing: Different formats for bulk clients and small retailers.
📌 Advance Payments & Credit Terms: Track what’s paid and what’s pending.
📌 Order & Challan Management: Don’t mix up orders, link them properly to invoices and delivery notes.
Tripta’s system automatically links orders, invoices, and challans saving you from bhool gaya moments!
Surat’s digital printing traders are known for their speed, creativity, and innovation. But when it comes to accounts, many are still stuck in old-school methods. With Tripta Accounting Software, you can automate finances, track payments, and focus on what you do best, scaling your business.
