The Hubballi trade, honestly
Hubballi–Dharwad is north Karnataka’s trading hub and a railway town — South Western Railway is headquartered here — with the Pune–Bengaluru trunk (NH-48) running past and roads dropping west to Karwar and Goa. The freight is agrarian and mercantile: cotton, foodgrains and chillies from the Byadgi belt outbound; agri inputs, cement and consumer stock inbound. Fleets are mid-sized and broker-fed, with return loads swinging on season and mandi calendars. That volatility rewards knowing each lane’s true per-km cost, keeping LRs matched to trips and freight bills, and letting renewal alerts for fitness, permits and insurance run ahead of the RTO.

What it does not do — in Hubballi or anywhere
- · The Fleet & Logistics pack is Cloud-only — it runs in a browser, not in the offline Windows desktop edition, in Hubballi or anywhere.
- · No live GPS telematics integration — the model is GPS-ready and positions arrive through the app, but wiring a tracking provider is a documented seam, not a shipped feature.
- · No customer self-service tracking login yet — track-by-LR and party-scoped statements exist as staff-callable reads; a consignor portal is deferred.
- · It does not file GST returns for you — freight bills post to the books; submission stays with you or your CA.
- · No office in Hubballi — sales and support are online (email and WhatsApp) from an India-based team, with no local branch, reseller or on-site visit.
- · No payroll, attendance or HR module — staff salaries and professional tax stay with your CA, in Karnataka as everywhere.
Questions Hubballi transporters ask
Does the Fleet pack work for a Hubballi transporter?
Yes. Vehicles register with engine, chassis, finance and hypothecation detail; drivers carry wallets and safety scores; and the working day runs trip → consignment (LR) → delivery → freight bill, with fuel, toll and expenses captured on the trip. It is a Cloud pack, run from any browser, and a fleet split across depots runs on one set of books.
What is the e-way bill position for Karnataka movements?
Intra-Karnataka thresholds are set by state notification and we have not printed an unverified figure — check the current one. Inter-state consignments follow the national ₹50,000 rule, and the JSON generates from the consignment you already booked either way.
How is GST handled on freight — GTA and reverse charge?
Each freight bill carries a GST rate and a GTA reverse-charge toggle, so a consignment billed under RCM shows the tax where it belongs — payable by the recipient — while forward-charge billing taxes it on your invoice. Which regime you are in depends on the option you have exercised as a GTA; the software bills correctly for either, and the election itself is a conversation with your CA.
Can it tell me what a trip actually earned?
To the kilometre: freight revenue against fuel, toll, maintenance, driver and other cost gives profit, margin in basis points and cost-per-km per trip — and fleet costing rolls that up per vehicle, driver, route and customer with a profit-ranked table. The Hubballi lane that feels busy but earns nothing shows up in that table.
Does it warn before a permit or insurance lapses?
Yes — the compliance radar tracks insurance, fitness, permit and licence expiry across the fleet, which is the difference between a planned renewal and a vehicle idled at a checkpost. Tyres are tracked fitted-and-removed, and finance and hypothecation sit on the vehicle record.
How are drivers settled?
Through a running-balance wallet: trip, night, daily and incentive allowances credit it, advances and penalised incidents debit it, and a 0–100 safety score grades each driver safe, watch or risk. Settlement stops being a diary negotiation and becomes a ledger both sides can read.
What happens when a truck goes to the workshop?
A job card accrues entered labour and issued parts while the vehicle is down, and closing it posts a single maintenance expense to the General Ledger — backed by a spare-parts ledger with a below-reorder radar. Maintenance cost then feeds the same per-km economics as fuel and toll, so an ageing vehicle's true cost is visible.
Does it track vehicles live on GPS?
Not yet, and we would rather say so: the model is GPS-ready — a position sink, latest-position on the LR lookup, a milestone timeline — but no telematics provider is wired in this build. Positions arrive through the app; live device integration is a documented seam.
We also run godowns and last-mile — is that covered?
Yes — warehouse docks with an inbound → putaway → pick → pack → dispatch task queue, a container yard accruing handling and demurrage, multi-modal shipments across road, rail, air and sea legs, last-mile runs with POD and failure reasons, courier bags advancing scan by scan, and cold-chain zones that raise a breach alert the moment a reading leaves its band.
How do we try it on our Hubballi fleet?
14 days free, no card. Put one week of real trips through it — book the LRs, close the trips with actual fuel and toll, raise one freight bill — and read the per-km table, because that number is the business. We sell and support online only, with no Hubballi branch.
