We speak karat,
jangad and 4Cs
fluently.

if your vendor asks
"what's a jangad?" —
that's your answer right there

Most software treats a jewellery business like a grocery store with shinier products. We grew up next to this trade. Daily rate boards, gross-versus-net weight, making charges, approval memos, karigar job-work, certified stones — we build software that already knows your counter.

If you're nodding,
we've done our homework.

Every line below came from sitting across the counter from jewellers and diamond traders. Tick the ones that sound like your shop.

An item isn't a price — it's net weight × today's rate + making charges + stone value.so pricing must recalculate live
Half your stock might be out on jangad (approval) right now — and you still need to know exactly where.approval memos are inventory too
Old-gold exchange isn't a "return". It's a valuation, a purity test and a negotiation — in one transaction.one bill, three calculations
Your karigars carry your gold. Issue weight, return weight, and wastage must reconcile to the milligram.job-work is a trust ledger
HUID and hallmarking aren't paperwork — they're per-piece identities the system must carry everywhere.compliance, built-in not bolted-on
A certified diamond is its certificate — 4Cs, lab, report number. Search must work the way buyers actually ask."1.5ct, F, VS1, IGI" is the query
Monthly schemes keep customers close — and keep a ledger of instalments, bonuses and maturities running for years.schemes are relationships with maths

Everything a jewellery business
needs — and nothing generic.

Modules we design and customize for retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers and diamond traders. Mix and match — your operation decides.

Karat-wise inventory

Stock by karat, gross & net weight, design, size and counter — with tag/barcode or RFID per piece, and stock-take that finishes before lunch.

Daily rate board & live pricing

Gold & silver rates set once each morning; every tag, estimate and invoice recalculates instantly — including making charges and stone values.

Jangad / approval memo tracking

Issue on approval to customers, brokers or branches; track every piece out, aging alerts, returns and conversions to sale — zero lost gold.

Karigar job-work ledger

Metal issued, pieces received, wastage & touch reconciliation per artisan — with pending-work views the owner checks in ten seconds.

Old-gold exchange & girvi

Purity-based valuation, exchange adjustments on the same invoice, and optional girvi / pledge registers with interest schedules.

Hallmarking & HUID

HUID captured per piece and carried through tags, invoices and reports — compliance that happens automatically, not annually in panic.

Scheme management

Monthly instalment schemes with member ledgers, bonus rules, maturity redemptions and reminders — years-long ledgers, handled calmly.

Certified diamond inventory

Stones indexed by 4Cs, lab & report number (GIA/IGI), with buyer-style search, memo tracking and margin views per parcel.

Melee & parcel management

Loose-stone lots by sieve size, colour and clarity ranges — issue to production, track consumption, reconcile to the cent (and the carat).

B2B trading & broker accounts

Party-wise terms, brokerage calculations, memo-to-invoice flows and outstanding control — the way the bazaar actually settles.

Jewellery e-commerce (domestic & international)

D2C stores with live-rate pricing, certified-stone pages and a Build-Your-Own-Ring flow — setting × stone × size, engineered for US & global buyers.

Owner's one-screen dashboard

Today's sales, stock value at today's rate, jangad outstanding, karigar pending, scheme dues — the whole shop in one glance before the first chai.

Notes taken inside
jewellery businesses.

The patterns that shaped how we build for this trade.

"The owner quotes a price in four seconds — weight, rate, making, minus old gold. The software took four minutes. Now it takes two seconds."— retail counter, gold jeweller
"Nobody could say how much stock was out on approval. The answer turned out to be 18% of inventory. Everyone went quiet."— jangad audit, wholesaler
"International buyers don't browse — they search '1.2ct oval F VS1 IGI' and expect three results, not three hundred."— diamond e-commerce study
"Karigar settlements happened from a pocket diary. Honest diary — but one monsoon away from disaster."— job-work mapping, manufacturer
"Scheme customers are the most loyal — and the worst tracked. Fixing that one ledger changed their festival season."— scheme review, family jeweller
"Lab-grown changed the questions buyers ask. The websites that answer them clearly are winning the search results — and the AI recommendations."— GEO research, lab-grown D2C

drag the notes around — careful, that one's about your jangad.

Your trade runs on trust, weight and rate.
Your software should too — to the milligram.
That's the standard we build to.

Counter-side questions.

If it bills, keep it — the question is everything it doesn't do: jangad tracking, karigar reconciliation, scheme ledgers, live-rate pricing, HUID. We can build around your current billing or replace it gradually, module by module, without disrupting a single day at the counter.

Yes — they're different inventories and we treat them that way. Gold lives by weight, karat and rate; certified stones live by their report (4Cs, lab, certificate number). One system, two correct models, one owner's dashboard.

That's a speciality. International D2C jewellery stores with certified-stone pages, Build-Your-Own-Ring flows, multi-currency pricing and the SEO + GEO work to get found by buyers searching on Google — and asking AI assistants — in the US and beyond.

No — that's the entire point of custom. Discovery happens at your shop: we watch the counter, the back office and the karigar settlements, then build to that. Where a process genuinely hurts you, we'll say so — but the decision stays yours.

Module by module. Core inventory and billing first — typically live within weeks — then jangad, karigar, schemes and the rest in planned phases, so your team learns one thing at a time and never stops selling.
