What's hard in textile wholesale

Metres, slabs and long credit

The right HSN and rate per line

Fabric, sarees and garments sit in different HSN chapters, and garments change rate with the price per piece. Each item carries its own HSN and rate, so the bill is right without a lookup.

Credit that runs for months

Retailers buy on long credit, often through a broker. Credit days and limits per party, an A–E grade from how they actually pay, and reminders in their language keep the book honest.

Mumbai fabric trade

Billing for Kalbadevi's cloth markets

Mumbai's wholesale fabric trade is centred on the old markets of Kalbadevi, such as Mangaldas Market and Mulji Jetha Market, where shirting, suiting, dress material and home furnishing fabric are sold to retailers, tailors and garment makers from the city and beyond.

Buyers are a mix: garment units in and around Mumbai buying by the roll, retailers from other towns of Maharashtra, and outstation wholesalers. Inside Maharashtra the e-way bill limit notified by the state is ₹1 lakh; to other states it is ₹50,000.

FAQ

Questions from textile wholesalers

What is the e-way bill limit for deliveries within Maharashtra?

Maharashtra notified ₹1 lakh for movement inside the state; movement to another state follows ₹50,000. Confirm the current position with your CA.

Can garment makers pay from a WhatsApp reminder?

Yes. Each reminder carries a payment link for the exact amount, in the buyer's language.

Can I bill by the roll and by the metre?

Make the roll and the metre separate items, each with its own unit and rate. Converting between rolls and metres on one item is not in Moharbill yet.

Does it work on a slow connection in the market?

Yes. Billing keeps working offline and syncs when the connection is back; IRNs are generated after sync.
