Who we serve/SMEs

You don't need a big-company problem to deserve a big-company fix.

Somewhere along the way, GST recovery got labelled an enterprise game, as if the leak checks your revenue before it starts. It doesn't. Your travel carries the same 8%, and in a growing business, every recovered rupee argues harder.

Your reality

Why SMEs leave this money behind.

Not because the amounts are small, because the assumptions are wrong. Three of them, specifically.

01

"That's an enterprise thing"

The most expensive assumption in this business. The GST sits on your tickets exactly as it sits on Infosys's, 8%, claimable, and unclaimed unless someone reconciles. The leak never asked for your turnover.

02

Nobody has the bandwidth

Your finance person, sometimes your finance half-person, is running payroll, compliance, receivables and the audit. Matching air tickets to GSTR-2B lines was never going to reach the top of that list. Correctly so.

03

The absolute number misleads you

"A few lakh a year" sounds skippable next to enterprise recoveries, until you price it in your currency: what share of your profit is it? What would you do with it back? That reframe is the entire point of the chart below.

The reframe

Same leak. Two ways of seeing it.

The gold slice is your unclaimed travel GST, identical in both panels. Only the yardstick changes. Watch what happens when it's measured against what actually matters to you.

How TraCarta fits

Enterprise rigour. SME manners.

The engine doesn't run a smaller method for smaller companies. You get the full disciplinesized to a business where the founder still reads the invoices.

Suggested startPlus if your team claims well and just needs the gathering solved; Max when you'd rather hand over the whole reconciliation.
  • Light where it touches you. Onboarding asks for a couple of hours, once. No software to learn, no process to change, no headcount to add, the point is subtracting work, not adding a vendor.
  • Plus is a real destination here. Many SME clients take the claim-ready set and run the claim themselves, full control, minimal cost, the hunt permanently off the founder's plate.
  • It grows when you do. More entities, more travel, a proper finance team, the ladder is there when you want it. Max and Max+ are an upgrade away, never a starting requirement.

Roughly 8% GST sits on every ticket your growing business books. In your P&L, that's not housekeeping, it's fueland it's been idling in the GST system, waiting to be claimed.
