Fleet & logistics software in Mumbai

Yes — LekhaPro's Fleet & Logistics pack runs a Mumbai transporter's operations: vehicles and drivers with a compliance expiry radar, a trip → LR → delivery → freight-bill lifecycle on the core invoice path with GTA reverse charge handled, and per-kilometre profitability per vehicle, route and customer. And within Maharashtra, an e-way bill applies above ₹1,00,000 (hank/yarn/fabric/garments moved ≤50 km exempt at any value) — generated from the same consignment. Cloud edition, any browser.

The Mumbai trade, honestly

Mumbai’s truck economy is organised around the container: haulage between JNPT at Nhava Sheva, the CFS belt around it, and the godown sprawl of Bhiwandi sets the rhythm for most operators. Daytime entry restrictions push trip planning into the night, and tolls on the expressways and city entry points bite into per-km margins. Software earns its keep here on trip-level profitability — diesel, toll and detention against the freight bill — and on keeping LRs, e-way bills and GTA reverse-charge invoicing straight across broker-booked port runs.

What a Mumbai transporter gets

  • Vehicle, driver, tyre and freight-rate-card masters
  • Compliance radar — insurance, fitness, permit and licence expiry
  • Trip board with fuel, toll, expense and service-due capture
  • Consignment (LR) register, milestone tracking and delivery challans
  • Freight billing on the core invoice path, with GST and GTA/RCM
  • Trip and fleet profitability — margin, ROI and cost per km
  • Vehicle capitalisation and disposal through fixed-asset depreciation
  • Driver wallet, allowances and a 0–100 safety score
  • Workshop job cards posting to the GL, plus a spare-parts ledger
  • Warehouse tasks, containers, multi-modal legs, delivery runs and parcels
  • Cold-chain zones with breach alerts and a compliance percentage

Plans are ₹249, ₹449 and ₹2,499 a month — GST-inclusive totals on pricing. New to the terms? Place of supply decides the tax head on every invoice, and goods movements may need an e-way bill.

What it does not do — in Mumbai or anywhere

  • · The Fleet & Logistics pack is Cloud-only — it runs in a browser, not in the offline Windows desktop edition, in Mumbai 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 Mumbai — 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 Maharashtra as everywhere.

Questions Mumbai transporters ask

Does the Fleet pack work for a Mumbai 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 Maharashtra movements?

₹1,00,000 (hank/yarn/fabric/garments moved ≤50 km exempt at any value) for an intra-state movement (Ntf. 15E/2018-ST, amended by 15-Eway Bill/2024 · mahagst.gov.in, checked 2026-08-05); inter-state consignments follow the national ₹50,000 rule. The e-way bill JSON generates from the consignment you already booked — no separate data entry, and the vehicle number updates through your GSP when a trans-shipment happens.

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 Mumbai 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 Mumbai 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 Mumbai branch. Local context: Mumbai’s truck economy is organised around the container: haulage between JNPT at Nhava Sheva, the CFS belt around it, and the godown sprawl of Bhiwandi sets the rhythm for most operators.
