Guwahati, the "Gateway to Northeast India" and the region's largest commercial metropolis on the Brahmaputra, runs on trade, tea, food processing and services. EaseUp gives founders, exporters and Fancy Bazar traders board-grade finance without a CFO salary.
EaseUp embeds a seasoned finance team into your Guwahati business at a fraction of a full-time CFO's cost. We build cash-flow visibility, lock down GST and Assam professional-tax compliance, and turn books into investor- and banker-ready MIS, whether you export tea, trade at Fancy Bazar or scale up.
Guwahati is the commercial capital of Northeast India and the engine of Assam's economy, whose GSDP is projected at roughly Rs 7.42 lakh crore (US$86.9 billion) in FY26, growing at a 12.5% CAGR. A major Brahmaputra port with over a million residents, it anchors trade, tea and food processing.
Startup Ecosystem: Assam led Northeast India with 1,487 DPIIT-recognised startups as of December 2024, with Guwahati the primary hub, backed by Startup Assam and the Assam Start-up and Innovation Policy 2025. FY25 exports hit Rs 4,883 crore, with Assam tea contributing Rs 2,361 crore, nearly 48%.

A full-time CFO in a metro can cost Rs 40-80 lakh a year, impractical for most Guwahati businesses. EaseUp's Virtual CFO service typically runs from around Rs 40,000 to Rs 2,00,000 a month by scope. A Fancy Bazar trader or tea unit starts low; exporters with fundraising needs sit higher. Book a free consultation.
