Pondicherry is a French-heritage coastal UT where light manufacturing — pharma, appliances and textiles in the PIPDIC estates — meets a large heritage-tourism economy, making precise GST essential.
Startup Ecosystem: Two new SEZs at Thattanchavady and Sedarapet are set to draw around ₹1,975 crore, fuelling fresh manufacturing, IT/ITES and export ventures — all needing reliable GST compliance.
GST jurisdiction: GST & Central Excise Puducherry Commissionerate. Puducherry also levies Professional Tax (PT) alongside GST, so we keep both aligned.
E-way Bill Management & Logistics Compliance With factories spread across the Mettupalayam, Sedarapet and Thattanchavadi estates, we automate e-way bill generation and place-of-supply accuracy so inter-state goods never stall in transit.
finished formulations (tablets, syrups, injectables) made at the PIPDIC Mettupalayam and Sedarapet units fall under HSN 3004 and, post-GST 2.0 (22 Sept 2025), are taxed at 5% (down from 12%), with 33 notified life-saving drugs at Nil; note that bulk APIs, KSMs and chemical intermediates stay at 18%, so units face an inverted-duty situation and should claim ITC refunds on accumulated input credit.
