01 — Local economy

Business in Chandigarh

Le Corbusier's planned city is the shared capital of Punjab and Haryana and a Union Territory, so government, courts and institutions such as PGIMER and Panjab University anchor its economy. With Mohali and Panchkula it forms a tricity whose services cover healthcare, education, IT parks, retail around Sector 17 and a dense cluster of immigration and study-abroad consultancies. Light manufacturing runs from Industrial Area Phases I and II.

Where software helps: Study-abroad and immigration consultancies run long pipelines from first enquiry to visa, tracking counselling sessions, document checklists, university applications, language-test batches and staged fee payments for each student.

05 — FAQ

Custom software in Chandigarh: common questions

Do you build custom ERP and AI software for businesses in Chandigarh?

Yes. Our studio is in Jaipur, 440 km away, and we work with Chandigarh businesses over video calls in normal Indian working hours, with working software every two weeks.

Can a custom ERP handle GST in Chandigarh?

Yes. Invoices raised in Chandigarh carry GST state code 04, with CGST and SGST on sales within the state and IGST on sales to other states. A custom ERP generates e-invoices through the IRP and e-way bills, as our own SteelERP does.

Can your AI agents talk to customers in Punjabi, Hindi and English?

Yes. Current language models handle Punjabi, Hindi and English well, including mixed-language messages. We still test an agent in each language your customers use before it goes live, and route anything it is unsure about to your team.

What would a first project look like for a professional services business?

Usually one module that fixes the most expensive problem first. For professional services that is often time tracking & utilisation and engagement & matter management. It goes live early, and the rest of the system follows in two-week increments while your team is already using it.
