01 — Local economy

Business in Srinagar

Pashmina shawls, hand-knotted carpets, papier-mache and walnut-wood carving have been made in Srinagar for centuries, mostly by artisans working at home or in small workshops. Houseboats on Dal Lake, hotels and travel firms serve visitors, the city trades the valley's apples, walnuts, almonds and saffron, and Lal Chowk and the industrial estates at Rangreth and Zainakote host shops and small manufacturers.

Where software helps: Pashmina and carpet businesses coordinate spinning, weaving and embroidery by home-based artisans over months, sell through showrooms and exhibitions elsewhere in India, and need GI authenticity records for each piece.

05 — FAQ

Custom software in Srinagar: common questions

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

Yes. Our studio is in Jaipur, 800 km away, and we work with Srinagar businesses over video calls in normal Indian working hours, with working software every two weeks.

Can a custom ERP handle GST in Jammu and Kashmir?

Yes. Invoices raised in Jammu and Kashmir carry GST state code 01, 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 Kashmiri, Urdu and Hindi?

For Urdu and Hindi, yes: current language models handle them well, including mixed-language messages. Support for Kashmiri is more limited, so we test with real customer messages before committing to it, and route anything the agent is unsure about to your team.

What would a first project look like for a handicraft business?

Usually one module that fixes the most expensive problem first. For handicrafts & furniture that is often order-wise production tracking and artisan & workshop job-work. It goes live early, and the rest of the system follows in two-week increments while your team is already using it.
