Software development for businesses in Mumbai.
Maharashtra, GST code 27. Finance, film and shipping: document trails, approvals and schedules.
Working with Mumbai from Noida
Mumbai is where the Reserve Bank of India, SEBI, BSE and NSE are headquartered, and it is the home of Hindi film and television and of the harbour ports on the Arabian Sea coast. Businesses in those fields run on documents, approvals and deadlines. This page covers the systems they usually need around that work, the GST treatment of our invoice for Maharashtra, and how we work with a team in Mumbai from Noida.
If your compliance team will ask how access and approvals are controlled, we can answer up front: custom software from us comes with role-scoped access and a full audit trail, and the terms say we sign your NDA rather than insisting on ours. The engagement runs from Noida in your time zone, with a kickoff call and a working build every two weeks. A visit to Mumbai is quoted as its own line.
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.
Banking and financial services
The Reserve Bank of India, SEBI, BSE and NSE all have their headquarters in the city, with banks, brokers and insurers around them.
Usual needs, kept apart from regulated trading systems: client-onboarding document trails, internal approvals with an audit log, and reconciliation reports that finance can rerun.
Film, television and advertising
Hindi cinema and television are produced in Mumbai, with studio areas such as Film City in Goregaon.
Usual needs: production schedules and call sheets, crew and vendor payment tracking, and a review-and-approve flow for cuts and artwork.
Shipping and trade
Mumbai Port and the Jawaharlal Nehru Port, across the harbour at Navi Mumbai, handle container and cargo traffic.
Usual needs: shipment tracking by container and bill of lading, a customs-document checklist for each consignment, and quotation tools for freight forwarders.
GST on our invoice
IGST, and why.
Maharashtra's GST state code is 27, shared with Pune. From Uttar Pradesh, an invoice to a Maharashtra registration is an inter-State supply with IGST. Because the place of supply for a business customer follows its registration, the state on your GSTIN, not the address on your letterhead, decides the tax. If a Mumbai head office orders software for a branch registered in another state, say which registration should receive the invoice. The legal basis is section 12 of the IGST Act; your CA confirms the detail.
Engagement choices and published prices
Which one fits.
Document trails, approvals and schedules are the core of the custom software engagement: modelled on your process, with roles and a record of who did what.
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.
