Kollam is a coastal export powerhouse on Ashtamudi Lake — cashew processing, titanium minerals at Chavara, seafood and clam exports and pencil slats converge here, making precise multi-sector GST compliance essential.
Startup Ecosystem: Beyond legacy exporters, Kollam's Technopark Phase-V at Kundara is drawing IT/ITeS ventures and SEZ-linked startups to the lakeside belt — all needing reliable GST compliance from day one.
GST jurisdiction: CGST Thiruvananthapuram Commissionerate. Kerala also levies Professional Tax (PT) alongside GST, so we keep both aligned.











E-way Bill Management & Logistics Compliance As a coastal export hub, Kollam runs on e-way bills — we automate generation and place-of-supply accuracy so cashew, seafood and pencil-slat consignments never stall in transit.






Cashew processing — shelled cashew kernels (whole or broken) attract 5% GST under HSN 0801 (08013210/08013220), with no cess; raw cashew bought from an agriculturist carries no GST in the farmer's hands, but a registered unit must pay GST under reverse charge (RCM) on those purchases and can claim it back as ITC, while shelling/roasting done on a job-work basis falls under SAC 9988.
