For traders, wholesalers and distributors

Accounting & GST for Mumbai traders and wholesalers.

Monthly books, GST reconciliation, debtor ageing and working-capital MIS.

Wholesale and trading businesses in Mumbai run on volume, credit and working capital. Margins are small, so unreconciled GST or slow-paying debtors can wipe out a month's profit. LMS FinTax provides monthly accounting, GST compliance and MIS for traders, wholesalers and distributors across Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai.

Our aim is simple: every month you should know your true margin, how much GST credit you have actually earned, who owes you money and for how long, and how much cash is locked in stock.

What's included

  • Monthly bookkeeping: sales, purchases, stock movement, bank and receipts recorded and reconciled, with party-wise ledgers kept current.
  • GST purchase reconciliation: your purchase register matched invoice by invoice with the GST portal, with a supplier follow-up list for missing or mismatched invoices.
  • GST return filing: GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B every month or quarter, plus annual returns where applicable.
  • E-way bill process: a practical checklist so dispatch staff generate e-way bills correctly and the data agrees with your returns.
  • Debtor and creditor ageing: a monthly report of who owes what and for how long, and what you owe suppliers.
  • MSME supplier payment tracking: dues to registered micro and small suppliers tracked against the payment deadline so deductions are not lost.
  • Working-capital MIS: stock, receivables and payables in one view, ready for discussions with your bank.

Why trading businesses need monthly reconciliation

If a supplier files late or reports the wrong GSTIN, your GST position can differ from the bills in your file, and if nobody notices until the year end it is harder to fix. We'll confirm the GST treatment that applies to your setup, and a monthly reconciliation turns this into a routine follow-up list rather than a surprise notice.

Credit terms create a second risk. Late payments to registered micro and small suppliers can affect your income-tax deduction, so we will confirm how the rules apply to you. Traders who buy from many small suppliers need a clear list of those dues every month. On the sales side, a weekly or monthly ageing report keeps collections moving and reduces how much you need to borrow.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the GST credit on my portal differ from my purchase bills?
Differences usually come from how and when your suppliers report their invoices. We reconcile your purchase register with the GST portal every month, give you a list of suppliers to follow up, and we'll confirm the GST treatment that applies to your setup.
When is an e-way bill required?
Whether an e-way bill is needed depends on the goods, their value and the state rules that apply. We will confirm what applies to your dispatches. We help you set up a process so dispatches are not held up and e-way bill data matches your GST returns.
How do payment terms with MSME suppliers affect my tax?
Late payments to registered micro and small suppliers can affect your income-tax deduction. We will confirm how the rules apply to your suppliers and payment terms. We track MSME supplier dues so you can plan payments.
Can you help with debtor follow-up and working capital?
Yes. We prepare a monthly debtor and creditor ageing report and a working-capital summary showing cash tied up in stock and receivables, so you can prioritise collections and plan bank limits.
