Automotive Dealerships
A dealership carries a real and specific statutory surface that runs on one person's memory and a wall calendar, and it bites late. TCS applies on every motor-vehicle sale above the statutory threshold, on value excluding GST, and a missed or wrongly-collected TCS is a notice. GST runs at mixed rates across the vehicle, accessories, parts and the labour line of a service bill, with e-invoice and e-way-bill obligations and input-credit reconciliation. RTO registration, road tax and the temporary-to-permanent flow sit on every sale. Insurance is regulated. Floor-plan (inventory-funding) interest accrues by the day and is rarely reconciled against stock ageing. A slipped filing is a penalty; a lapsed dealer or trade licence stops the business.
Who has it
Across all segments; the statutory mix differs: full TCS, RTO and insurance obligations for car, two-wheeler, tractor, commercial-vehicle and EV dealers; GST on the service bill for independent workshops; and GST on parts for spare-parts and accessories counters.
What we build
A compliance calendar with a named owner and escalation for every statutory obligation; deterministic preparation of TCS, GST (across the mixed rates), e-way-bill, TDS, PF and ESI reconciliations off the connected data so filings are clean and on time for a qualified person to sign; an RTO and registration tracker per deal; and a licence-and-certificate renewal tracker. Nothing files itself.
What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off
The reliable spine
The reliable spine is non-AI: a compliance calendar with a named owner and escalation, deterministic preparation of TCS, GST, e-way-bill, TDS, PF and ESI off the connected data, and RTO, registration, licence and certificate trackers. Nothing files itself.
Where AI helps
AI helps read a statement or notice and pull the relevant figures into the filing draft; a qualified person reviews and signs every filing, because a regulated return is never left to a model.
Who signs off
A named person signs off anything touching money, stock, a customer promise, a regulated filing, a payment, a price, a credit decision or a people decision.
What changes day to day
TCS, GST, RTO and statutory deadlines run to a calendar with a named owner instead of to memory, so filings and renewals stop slipping; when a notice or an audit lands, the evidence is retrievable in minutes; regulation becomes a managed, provable strength. Illustrative; final numbers come from your own data.
