Business in Pimpri-Chinchwad
Machine shops, press shops and fabricators by the thousand fill Bhosari, Chinchwad and Talawade, supplying Tata Motors, Bajaj Auto, Force Motors and the wider Pune automotive base. Capital-goods makers such as Thermax build boilers and industrial equipment here, and the Hinjewadi IT park on the city's western edge adds a large white-collar workforce.
Also known as Pimpri Chinchwad and PCMC.
Where software helps: Small machine shops here take parts from larger suppliers for turning, heat treatment or plating, so they need challan-based job-work tracking, per-operation billing and ITC-04 returns for goods sent and received.
