01 — Local economy

Business in Rajkot

Diesel engines, submersible pumps, machine tools, bearings and castings come out of thousands of small and medium engineering workshops in Rajkot, supplying farmers, OEMs and export buyers. Gold and imitation jewellery made around Soni Bazaar sells across India, and the city is a trading centre for groundnut, cotton and edible oil from Saurashtra.

Where software helps: Engineering units here make hundreds of pump and engine variants in small batches, so they need bill-of-materials control, casting and machining job-work tracking, and dealer-wise warranty and spare-parts records.

05 — FAQ

Custom software in Rajkot: common questions

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

Yes. Our studio is in Jaipur, 720 km away, and we work with Rajkot businesses over video calls in normal Indian working hours, with working software every two weeks.

Can a custom ERP handle GST in Gujarat?

Yes. Invoices raised in Gujarat carry GST state code 24, 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 Gujarati, Hindi and English?

Yes. Current language models handle Gujarati, 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 engineering business?

Usually one module that fixes the most expensive problem first. For engineering & machinery that is often project-based costing and multi-level BOM & drawing control. It goes live early, and the rest of the system follows in two-week increments while your team is already using it.
