01 — Local economy

Business in Jalandhar

Sports goods and leather are Jalandhar's two classic industries: units in Basti Nau and nearby areas make footballs, hockey sticks, cricket gear and protective equipment, and tanneries at the Leather Complex supply finished leather. Hand tools, pipe fittings and valves, and rubber goods are other specialities, while remittances from the Doaba region's large overseas Punjabi community support real estate, retail and many immigration and study-abroad consultancies.

Where software helps: Hand-tool and pipe-fitting makers offer hundreds of sizes and finishes, send forging, machining and plating to job-workers, and keep different dealer price lists across states, which spreadsheets struggle to keep consistent.

05 — FAQ

Custom software in Jalandhar: common questions

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

Yes. Our studio is in Jaipur, 490 km away, and we work with Jalandhar businesses over video calls in normal Indian working hours, with working software every two weeks.

Can a custom ERP handle GST in Punjab?

Yes. Invoices raised in Punjab carry GST state code 03, 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 manufacturing business?

Usually one module that fixes the most expensive problem first. For manufacturing that is often bill of materials & routing and production planning (MRP). It goes live early, and the rest of the system follows in two-week increments while your team is already using it.
