Business in Nagpur
Sitting near the geographic centre of India, Nagpur is a natural transit point, and the MIHAN project around its airport combines an SEZ, cargo facilities and aircraft maintenance and aerospace units. Western Coalfields and manganese miner MOIL are headquartered here, coal-fired power stations ring the city, and traders deal in Nagpur oranges, cotton and soybean grown across Vidarbha.
Where software helps: Distributors and transporters here serve central India from one base, so they need multi-warehouse stock, route-wise dispatch planning, e-way bills and freight costing across several states.
