Software development for businesses in Bengaluru.
Karnataka, GST code 29. Software firms, aerospace and biotech: the supporting systems around their core work.
Working with Bengaluru from Noida
Bengaluru is a flight from our Noida studio, so the engagement is remote by design. The city is known for software and IT services, for the aerospace and space organisations headquartered there, and for biotechnology. Many companies in those fields have their own engineers, so the work an outside studio is asked to do tends to be the supporting systems around the core product or lab. Below: what those usually are, what the GST invoice looks like, and how we work with a team that can read the code.
Both cities keep Indian Standard Time, which has no daylight saving, so a call is a call and there is nothing to convert. Your engineers can read what we write: we work in your GitHub organisation from the first commit, and each fortnightly deploy comes with code your team can review. If a workshop in your office would help, say so at scoping; travel and time are quoted as a separate line and never folded into the build.
What the city is known for
And the systems that go with it.
These are general descriptions of what businesses of this kind usually need. None describes a particular project or customer.
Software products and IT services
The city is known for software product companies, IT-services firms and the global capability centres that large companies run from India.
Usual needs: an internal admin console for support staff, subscription and invoice operations that finance can audit, and a portal for partners or resellers.
Aerospace and space
ISRO and Hindustan Aeronautics Limited both have their headquarters in Bengaluru.
Usual needs for suppliers to organisations like these: part-traceability records, inspection checklists with sign-offs, and a register of certificates and calibration dates.
Biotechnology
Biotechnology companies and research institutes, Biocon among them, are based in and around the city.
Usual needs: sample and batch tracking, instrument booking and calibration schedules, and approval trails for lab documents.
GST on our invoice
IGST, and why.
Karnataka's state code is 29. A GSTIN that starts with 29 is a Karnataka registration, and an invoice from Uttar Pradesh to it carries IGST. If your Bengaluru company is a subsidiary of a group headquartered elsewhere, the registration that receives our invoice may not be the Karnataka one, so look at the first two digits of the GSTIN you give us and ask your CA if it is not obvious. The rule is the place-of-supply provision, section 12 of the IGST Act.
Engagement choices and published prices
Which one fits.
Teams building a first customer app often need iOS and Android together, and React Native gives one codebase for both stores. If what you need is an internal tool, the custom software engagement fits better.
All prices exclude GST. Fixed-price work is quoted after a scoping conversation, with no charge and no obligation after it.
The things people ask first.
If the awkward question is not here, send it. We would rather have the difficult conversation now than three weeks into a build.
