What Hisar's steel trade looks like
Stainless changes how a trading firm has to work. Grade and finish matter as much as size, offcuts and end pieces hold real value, and a buyer will ask what a particular coil or sheet was cut from — so stock has to be traceable at the piece, not just at the item.
The town is also being rebuilt around industry. NICDC and the Haryana government are developing an Integrated Manufacturing Cluster of 2,988 acres beside Hisar airport under the Amritsar–Kolkata Industrial Corridor, with direct access from NH 9 and NH 52 and two phases of 1,573.9 and 1,412 acres. NICDC's own note places Hisar between Rewari, a Western Dedicated Freight Corridor station, and Ambala on the Eastern corridor, with feeder rail links to both and a freight terminal proposed in the airport area.
For a steel trader the working picture is simpler than the master plan: material bought from the plant here and from mills across Punjab and Delhi-NCR, sold to fabricators, workshops and building sites across western Haryana, in part loads and mixed grades. What has to be right every time is the weight on the bill matching the weight that left the yard.
Ordered vs actual weight
Every line carries the weight ordered and the weight actually loaded, and the challan and bill use the loaded figure. Tonnage conversions cover stainless and carbon coil, sheet, plate, bar and structurals.
Coil ledger
Each coil is held on its own: its weight, the yard it sits in, its movement history and the order it is allocated to, so a part-used coil is still accounted for.
One order, several lorries
Split an order into delivery sub-orders by unit type — sheet by kg, tube by metre, bar by piece — each with its own loading, challan, lorry number and delivery status.
Part shipments from the mill
Raise one purchase order and receive it through several purchase advices as trucks arrive, each booked into the yard that took it in. An optional security truck-in step logs arrival before unloading.
GST, TCS & Tally
CGST/SGST or IGST computed on the order line from the HSN code — Haryana is GST state code 06 — plus TCS reports. Tally pulls printed challans through an authenticated API, and SteelERP pushes to a webhook you provide.
50+ reports
Sales and purchase trends, top products, customers and suppliers, GST summary, supervisor loading workload, and challans raised but not printed the same day. Excel and PDF export.
What to know before you switch
SteelERP runs the operations side — inquiries, orders, dispatch, stock, purchase and reports — while Tally stays your book of accounts. Yard and dispatch staff can use the interface in Hindi or English, and customer, catalogue and size lists come in from your existing spreadsheets.
Each customer carries a credit period in days, which prints as payment terms on inquiry PDFs and order emails. Credit-limit checks and outstanding-balance tracking are Upcoming, as is live GPS tracking of lorries; today you record the lorry number on each delivery sub-order.
Your data sits in its own database on AWS in Mumbai. The optional AI Planning Advisor runs on Anthropic's Claude under your own API key; the business summaries it sends to Anthropic include real customer names and are not anonymised.

Steel ERP in Hisar — FAQs
Can SteelERP keep stainless and carbon steel apart in stock?
Yes. Each item sits in the product, category and size catalogue with its own HSN code, stock is held per warehouse, and coils are tracked individually in the coil ledger with their weight, yard and movement history.
Can a mixed lorry of coil, sheet and bar be billed on actual weight?
Yes. Delivery sub-orders split the order by unit type, and each line carries the ordered weight and the weight actually loaded, with the challan and bill using the loaded figure.
Does SteelERP work with Tally for a Hisar trading firm?
Yes, in two directions. Tally pulls every printed delivery and purchase challan from SteelERP through an authenticated API, in the shape of the printed document, and SteelERP pushes to a webhook endpoint you provide. Your accounts stay in Tally.
How much does steel ERP software cost for a Hisar stockist?
The Starter plan is Rs 10,000/month for up to 10 users and 1 stockyard. Growth and Enterprise plans, for more users and yards, are priced on a custom quote. GST (18%) and a one-time setup charge apply separately.
